Reform UK has unveiled proposals for electoral reform, including a significant restriction on postal voting and the removal of voting rights for Commonwealth citizens.
Nigel Farage, outlining the party's plans in the Sunday Telegraph and the Mail on Sunday, asserted that postal voting has turned the UK’s elections into a "laughing stock" and that allowing non-British citizens to vote is "absurd". Under Reform UK’s proposals, postal voting would be severely limited to the elderly, disabled, serving armed forces personnel, and those working overseas during an election. This contrasts with the current system, which allows any eligible voter to cast their ballot by post.
