There have been some disturbing reports with our political system reported recently.
One MP has been using foul language about asylum seekers and immigrants, he was was quoted as saying that asylum seekers should "f*** off back to France" if they do not like being accommodated on a barge. I would never vote for any prospective MP if they use such language, no matter what party they stand for or opinion being cast. I expect every MP to be more respectful and intelligent in their choice of language when making public statements.

There have been disturbing reports that hackers have stolen the names and addresses of every voter in the UK from the electoral commission. This is egregious. How could this have happened? It seems that none of our data is safe and secure in the UK whether they are in the hands of government bodies or corporations? How can we now trust future plans to have electronic voting if the electoral systems are not safe from hackers and bad actors? Anyone who holds our data should redouble their efforts to improve to ensure that any information held is secure.
