Postal Votes Fiasco in the NW

Firstly, a load of people have not had their Postal Votes. If they do not arrive before 12 midnight on the 1st/2nd June then we can challenge these election results with a legal based case.
Secondly, everyone should have received freeposts from all of the parties that are standing. If you have not received a freepost leaflet from the BNP or English Democrats (BNP splinter) then you are lucky, but we don’t need to advertise this to help them with their complaints.
However, on the less fair side of things, a substantial number of Green and Tory freepost leaflets have “disappeared” in NW sorting offices. Obviously I’m not too concerned about the latter, but you might want to ask which party has the motive to hide Green and Tory leaflets with Lancashire postcode destinations? Respect people have told me that their freepost has also not been received in some areas.
Could people in the NW put down their postcodes (first part is fine) and whatever leaflets are missing, so people have the facts about who didn’t get their leaflets when the results come in?
This Postal Vote system has been a rushed job and we need to make sure the government doesn’t try and foist an untried system onto us ever again.
