Be aware of campaign posters and billboards outside Polling Stations

Well here we are, Referendum Day and as one might expect, geoengineered influenced skies are to produce thunder storms and heavy downpours across most of southern England with expected flash flooding and traffic disruption.

Having arrived at my local Polling Station this morning 07:15 I noticed a Remain billboard sitting on the pavement across the road from the Polling Station but made no mention of it to the officer in charge until I had cast my vote and returned home to clarify the fact that no billboards, fliers etc are allowed outside a Polling Station.

Sure enough, according to The Electoral Commission (EU Referendum 2016) Par 1.9. no such campaign material should be within 50 meters of a Polling Station. here

Returned to my local Polling Station with the relevant document and made my complaint to the officer in charge with which the Remain billboard was promptly removed.

I wouldn’t have minded so much if alongside the Remain there was a Leave billboard but to have one sitting on it’s own is just too influencing.
