[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

“Britain prides itself on being a leading democracy – but it is a dark day for politics when thousands of blameless people turn out to vote only to be refused."

This is the independent Electoral Reform Society's verdict on Tories' voter ID trial.

[Charlie Falconer @LordCFalconer]

Honest voters being turned away in 5 ID trial areas, where not one case of voter fraud in last 10 years. Electoral Reform Society absolutely against ID requirement. ID requirement deters and prevents voters with no gain in either anti fraud or greater confidence in the system.

2/2 The #Windrush scandal has exposed the Home Office #HostileEnviroment policy. Many people are living in fear with no guaranteed, independent support.

That’s why @JulieMorganLAB and I are calling on UK Govt to reinstate #LegalAid for immigration cases: https://t.co/m7VgdgmLp1
