  4. Where is the evidence that voter fraud is a problem?
  5. The Tories changed the law so that the government controls what the Electoral Commission's priorities are. There is no evidence that voter ID fraud is a significant issue. The voter ID requirements are an attempt to tackle a problem that doesn't exist. Just look at what would be needed to change the outcome of an election. First, the party planning to commit the fraud would need to identify which seats will be decided by wafer-thin majorities. That is almost impossible. Then, they would have to find people on the electoral register who will definitely not vote. Get that wrong, and a problem will be identified when the second person claiming to be that voter turns up. The party attempting to commit fraud would need to recruit dozens of fake voters for each polling station. The more people involved, the greater the risk of the fraud being detected. It simply isn't practical.
  6. O'Sullivan's exit means commentators will have to talk about the other players.
  7. The West End Girls and Domino Dancing references are rather blatant. Still, if you can't plagiarise yourself, who can you plagiarise?

    I've always thought that replays are part of the FA Cup, including the ties that went to several replays before penalty shoot-outs were introduced. Therefore, I don't like this decision. Unsurprisingly, lower league clubs are unhappy with this, particularly as the decision seems t have been made by the FA and the Premier League with other clubs being ignored. One possible compromise might be to say that ties between clubs two or more divisions apart will always be played at the lower-ranked side, regardless of how they were4 drawn. This used to be the rule in the French Cup; I'm not sure whether it still applies.
  17. I do not understand what he was thinking. To concede a match needing only one snooker and with reds still on the table is truly bizarre.

  22. Leverkusen did it in style, although they took they time. After Bayern Munisch won yesterday, Leverkusen were 1-0 up against Werder Bremen after an hour. Four goals in the last half-hour saw them win 5-0 and win the titler for the first time in their history. They remain unbeaten in ALL competitions this season.
