Daily Mail’s front page seem a tad hypocritical to you?

"Daily Mail is just stoking toxic division again."

The Daily Mail front page today has got people shaking their heads (as per).

This time they accuse Labour leader Starmer of trying to rig polls by using EU citizens to win votes.

They write: “Sir Keir Starmer told a conference at the weekend that he expects the next general election to get ‘dirty and nasty’. Now we know what he means.

“If Labour wins next year, Starmer plans to rig future elections by giving the vote to millions of EU nationals, plus millions more 16 and 17-year-olds.

“The plan would mean that 3.4million EU citizens with ‘settled status’ would be eligible to vote. Another 2.6million are ‘pre-settled’ and would doubtless be fast-tracked by Labour.”

Voter ID

Well, this seems a bit churlish as there has been a huge argument about the new rules that meant you had to show ID when you voted, when electoral fraud is basically zero in the UK.

Here is Angela Rayner slamming the new law.

Oonagh had voted in every election since 1950 but was denied her say last Thursday. She was by no means the only one.

The Tories’ shabby voter ID scheme caused chaos and confusion, locking legitimate voters out of democracy.

Now, as the Tories crashed out in local elections, Jacob Rees-Mogg appears to have accepted that it actually worked against the party and appears to confess that the scheme was deliberate gerrymandering by the Tories.

A confession from @Jacob_Rees_Mogg that the photo ID scheme to vote in elections was deliberate “gerrymandering” by the Conservatives, what we in @LibDemLords @LibDems said all along. We must now review acceptable forms of ID to include at least those used by the Post Office https://t.co/gG9zNlTeFe pic.twitter.com/oxzx3o09z3

You may agree with James O’Brien on LBC. He said: ”That would’ve mattered once. It might even have been career-ending.’

Reactions – Daily Mail front page

1.

"Rigging" the polls, Daily Mail ? You mean like the very narrow Brexit referendum was "rigged" by not letting those British citizens most affected by it (us living in the EU) vote ? Hundreds of thousands of our votes would have swung it the other way

That kind of "rigging" ? pic.twitter.com/bDYp915TzD

I am sure the Daily Mail's front page tomorrow will be raging against Jacob Rees-Mogg's admission that voter ID was meant to rig the election in the party's favour https://t.co/IzvgYCgrY4 pic.twitter.com/XKtgcXSJLo

You mean the Daily Mail whose Non Dom owner pays no tax in UK !! whereas my EU citizen husband has been paying tax for years and should be entitled to vote in a General Election. So the Daily Mail is just stoking toxic division again. So strongly disagree. https://t.co/1SemOWiVDZ

I've been waiting for the Daily Mail to proclaim that the will of the people is under threat & that Brexit will be reversed. They've gone one better with poll rigging.
