The trouble is that the Council has to make it as accessible for anyone and everyone so that we can all sign up in the way that we individually want to sign up.

Can you imagine the furore if some people were unable to sign up in the exact way that they personally wanted to? There'd be Irate of Accrington saying but I want to just phone up and I can't do that anymore, whilst Disgruntled of Great Harwood refuses to get on a bus to come into town so needs a postal form, and let's not even talk about Rattled of Rishton who thinks everything should be on the web and anyone who hasn't got a computer shouldn't even be allowed to vote.

Good post,Gayle It must be a nightmare trying to please everybody.
You're right about the envelopes too. When a business sends out pre-paid envelopes, there is no charge to the business unless the customer uses the envelopes. The business will be billed afterwards for all the envelopes that have been used.
