Electoral Commission needs to step up and sort this out.

If this is their culture we should respect it and celebrate the vibrancy and diversity it brings to our shores.

Had to laugh at that. The reality is what else should we really expect. Pakistan,Somalia,Africa are all famed for being corruption free zones.

Sounds like chaos. Who is this guy?

The Mayor is a (possibly) corrupt bd who has a bangla army which controls tower hamlets.

if you are not a) Bangla or b) on welfare, the chances of you getting anything done in TH is ZERO.

The Electoral Commission is sending their top troubleshooter down to Tower Hamlets to sort the mess out..

Why has no one, especially journalists filmed (secretly) what goes on at the polling stations?

Why is Luther Rafman allowed to stand when it's quite clear the votes have been rigged?

Unbelievable!

How is this allowed, how is the cheating Mayor of Tower Hamlets allowed to still draw a wage from the public when it's quite clear he has cheated to get the job?

I wonder, if it was a leader of a far right party involved in these shenanigans, would the press be as silent on this?

TH has another go and counting votes and trying to not look third world in the process.
Amazed at all those on PH spending half their day typing away about every tiny policy difference between various parties, yet seemingly not the least bit concerned that the basics of a free and fair vote are being upheld. Wondering what it is the keeps people silent on such issues .

Lack of disagreement. I think we can all broadly agree on what appears to be going on in TH so there's nothing to witter on at each other about.

As much as I dislike uncontrolled immigration I would prefer the Eastern Europeans over Lutfur Rahman and his ilk any day of the week.

Can they nullify the results if there is evidence of foul play (and there is clearly buckets of it)?
I can understand why the authorities are reluctant to step in as it sets a precedent but this is clearly taking the P.

Perhaps people should. It looks awfully like people are pretending to be distracted or looking around in every direction but one, with it barely being reported or covered. Kinda looks silly next to breaking news and rolling headlines about what someone said on Twitter.
2014 Britain and we need a Police officer outside every TH polling station. That's not progress.

Was Lutfur born here or is he an immigrant?

I couldn't care less where he was born tbh. I've just never met an Eastern European who thinks a toilet seat is for squatting on.

Squatting is actually the better way to poop from an anatomical viewpoint if not an aesthetic or cultural one. But that's not the issue here.
The issue here is a complete disregard for the electoral process.

you could say people are stting all over it.

But there are a few who think human trafficking is okay.

Personally, I'd rather we ensured immigrants, from wherever, are first world in their outlook and education. And fully house/toilet trained.
