    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You had to go back to 27 June 2016 to get that "story". Is it not possible that the systems have had some slight improvement since then? Also, I seem to remember that there was some degree of re-checking and disqualification later on some petitions. And, it is all very well voting 33,000...

    I replied to specific post about a specific place. I have no idea about NK. But I'll just ask, is it wrong for British embassy staff to vote, wherever they are? https://www.gov.uk/world/organisations/british-embassy-pyonyang
