Hundreds wiped off vote register

Hundreds of people in west London will be unable to vote in the general election due to a clerical error.

SNIP

A spokesman added that the full extent of the problem would not be known until an audit had been carried out.

The mistake was uncovered last Thursday but under election guidelines it was too late to resolve it before polling.

Staff briefed

The affected constituencies are Feltham and Heston, and Brentford and Isleworth.

A Council spokesman said: "We do not know how many voters are affected but it could be several hundred.

"The two constituencies together have in excess of 160,000 electors on the register."

Brentford and Isleworth:

2001 Result: Won by LAB, majority 23.2%

Profile: This seat was taken by Labour for the first time in 1997. Ann Keen beat the incumbent Tory, Nirj Deva, by almost 14,500 votes and joined her husband, Alan, the MP for neighbouring Feltham and Heston, in the House of Commons - a family team representing the London Borough of Hounslow. This is the inner of the two Hounslow seats and is more residential than Feltham and Heston. It consists of several districts skirting the north bank of the Thames, from classy Chiswick and Stamford Brook out to Hounslow. Further along, Gunnersbury - under the M4 flyover - consists of old-style estates. Isleworth is quieter and more suburban. The seat was created in 1974 when two sitting MPs fought it out - Labour's Michael Barnes (Brentford & Chiswick) lost to Tory Barney Heyhoe (Heston & Isleworth). He remained there until his retirement in 1992. He was replaced by Nirj Deva - one of a number of ethnic minority MPs elected that year. More than a quarter of the people in the constituency are from ethnic minorities, mostly Asian. The 1995 boundary changes brought the ward of Hounslow West, with a very ethnically diverse population into the constituency, which worked to Labour's advantage. With Heathrow airport not far away, this area has the tenth highest proportion of workers in the transport, storage and communications sector. Samsung and Sky News have their headquarters here, as do Fullers Brewery. The Hounslow side of the constituency is strong for Labour, in striking contrast to neighbouring Twickenham and Richmond wards. Chiswick, Turnham Green and Osterley are the areas where the Conservatives do best.

Feltham and Heston:

2001 Result: Won by LAB, majority 35.0%

Profile: This is the more western of two constituencies within the London Borough of Hounslow - Brentford and Isleworth is the other. The two are represented in Parliament by Labour husband and wife, Alan and Ann Keen. Alan is the longer-serving - he has represented Feltham and Heston since 1992. Ann was elected in 1997. Mr Keen's slim 1,400 majority in 1992 increased to over 15,200 in 1997 and more than 12,500 in 2001 - nearly 60% of the vote. Heathrow Airport is nearby, in next door Hayes and Harlington, and provides a great number of jobs for local people. Indeed it has the highest proportion - almost 10,000 or 21.5% of those working in the transport and communications sector. This is probably one factor that keeps unemployment here only just above the national average. The ethnic make-up is mixed: 40% are white and there is a large community from the Indian sub-continent - 27% - as befits a constituency adjoining Southall. The other reason why Feltham and Heston is well-known is because of the troubled Feltham Young Offenders' institution which lies within its boundaries and about which there has been much negative publicity over the years.

Oh sure, they're from West London, but the Tories call it "Left London."

I hear them say "Blair is likely to win, THOUGH IT WILL BE CLOSER.." or something like that, to set the stage for a Blair win no matter what... if he has to cheat, he will, and bush showed him you can get away with it. The recent release of the documents showing Blair was in on planning the Iraq war, INCLUDING manufacturing intell to create false public support! Can Blairs party really win despite all this.... with the brits be snookered too! :mad:

It's not you, Griffy. Nope.

political operatives....

"See, here's all ya gotta do....."

That's what it's truly all about... we're going to see the same fricked thing happened 2006 and 2008. They can't afford to ever let another Democrat party run things... Repuks will get in big trouble.

Bombs this morning in NY near British Embassy; no one hurt except the sidewalk and cracked glass - too early a.m. hours.
"Well, isn't that special."

Votes Missing in England on Election Day for * Buddy Blair.
"Well, isn't that special."

worldwide it seems....when are the people going to rebel and say enough of these dirty tricks? We know these aren't clerical "mistakes" these secretaries and data processors are just doing their jobs, if they are not given the info, it can't be put into the system, simple as that, these voters lost their right to vote because someone in authority withheld their names....

So disgusting. Looks like Blair has learned a lot from W. No wonder they were so buddy-buddy. What's Britian going to do about this? Please tell me they're not using machine's too.
