Recent elections in the UK have shown a huge swing to Labour, but this is not something Labour should be complacent about. Too many people chose to stay at home, and in absolute terms, Labour did not gain many votes in the areas.
I think that Labour should work to get people to register for free voter ID. Turnout is going to be a factor in the next election along with Voter ID. With job-centres being told to stop referring benefit claimants to food banks, Labour should be helping people get free ID outside job centres and also at foodbanks. The danger is that too many people will be disenfranchised and that Labour will be the party that will lose out the most.
