Hundreds of people were turned away from casting a ballot in Liverpool’s council elections following voter ID changes.
Earlier this month, the city went to the polls in historic all-out elections as a newly drawn council map sent 85 new members to the Town Hall. More than 300 candidates contested 64 wards in the first ballot held since the installation of government appointed commissioners in June 2021.
From this year, elections nationwide have controversially required voters to carry photographic ID with them to cast a ballot at their polling station.
