Photo ID and voting in Scottish by-elections next week

[vivdunstan]

I wonder how many people in my local Scottish constituency will be caught out by not having suitable photo ID for voting in the Westminster by-election taking place here next week. Photo ID wasn't needed for the recent Scottish parliamentary elections, though it was needed at the local council elections in England happening at the same time. If I wasn't voting by post for a new MP - already done - I'd be ok, with my passport and Blue Badge. Martin has a passport and driving licence. But my Mum doesn't have anything suitable. And I would be surprised if some other folks don't too.

P.S. There are two Westminster by-elections in Scotland next week, one here in Angus, and another in Aberdeen.
