Greater Manchester Police say they have no evidence of family voting after an extensive investigation, including speaking to Democracy Volunteers and seizing CCTV:
We’ve concluded our investigation into alleged ‘family voting’ at last month’s Gorton and Denton by-election, finding no evidence of any intent to influence or refrain any person from voting.
Our investigation into alleged influencing of voters at a polling booth (under Section 62C Representation of the People Act 1983 (Ballot Secrecy Act 2023)) began after a criminal report from the Reform UK party following a public statement made by independent electoral observers at Democracy Volunteers.
We have spoken to the four Democracy Volunteers observers present at polling stations on the day of the by-election (26 February) who have shared with us their eyewitness account. This includes some instances of more than one voter going into a booth at the same time, and instances of people looking over the shoulder of voters.
The information they have provided to us estimates this may have happened on 32 occasions across 15 polling stations.
The observers do not allege any verbal instruction or physical conduct that indicated one person was directing or coercing another regarding how to vote. This is a crucial part of the legislation to prove such an offence was committed.
Our investigation team, led by an experienced senior investigating officer, spoke to all four volunteers from Democracy Volunteers as part of our enquiries – obtaining a copy of their observations.
We also spoke to the Presiding Officers at 15 stations as well as the Acting Returning Officer, none of whom received any reports other than from Democracy Volunteers.
We have received no further criminal reports.
For us to investigate allegations, we require an understanding of who the potential suspects may be, and evidence that may corroborate eyewitness accounts. For an investigation to meet the criminal threshold for prosecution, we require admissible evidence of intent or action aimed at influencing the vote.
We have asked Democracy Volunteers for descriptions of those alleged to be involved, and timings on when these are believed to have occurred. These details were not documented by observers or the complainant, and we have not been provided with any identities or descriptions to pursue.
The absence of this information means there is no remaining reasonable line of enquiry. This also includes limitations with CCTV as an absence of descriptions, and votes not being time-stamped, meaning we are not able to identify individuals from footage.
We have approached all 45 polling stations in the Gorton and Denton constituency to ask for CCTV from the day. Forty-one of those polling stations told us they did not have CCTV activated in the building as it would have compromised the secrecy of the vote during polling day, in line with advice given.
We have seized and viewed CCTV from three of the remaining four polling stations. These are three polling station that Democracy Volunteers visited. We have spoken to the Presiding Officer from each one.
However, these stations do not show any evidence of anyone directing or coercing another regarding how to vote – the crucial part of the legislation to prove such an offence was committed.
There is no evidence to suggest any intent to influence or refrain a person from voting as stated in the Ballot Secrecy Act 2023.
We have been liaising with the Electoral Commission, who we have shared our findings with. We have also shared our findings with the Returning Officer.
We have updated the complainant about the work of our investigation and the conclusion we have reached.

@BenWallace70 @StateDept @ralakbar They forget… The US signed the Budapest memorandum in 1994 which guaranteed Ukraine’s sovereignty in exchange for giving up its nuclear weapons. Ukraine is exactly the US’s war.

@StateDept @ralakbar no you haven’t contributed more. You really haven’t

Working class geezer Tom Skinner attended one of the most expensive schools on earth, has a criminal conviction for handling £40K worth of stolen goods and 2,000 diazepam tablets, cheated on his wife, has met JD Vance, and has joined Reform UK. #bbcqt doesn't mention any of that.

I seem to remember being on Question Time, a few months ago, in Dover…my constituency.
You were too scared to even put a Reform MP up for tonight it seems.
Weak.

I wasn’t able to take part in #BBCQT from Clacton tonight, as we were told MPs are not allowed to appear on the show in their own constituencies. I’m sure I’ll be back on before too long!

@GBNEWS @beverleyturner Thankfully we have Starmer and his excellent judgement.
KGB news just promotes reform, trump and bashes Labour.
It’s fake news.

BREAKING: Trump just attacked NATO and then goes on to say that "25 years ago" he said that NATO was a "Paper tiger" and that "they would never come to our rescue".
FACT: 25 years ago was March 26, 2001. Less than 6 months after that, on September 12, 2001, NATO invoked Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty for the first and only time ever. They lost 1100 soldiers fighting for us.
Trump is a Moron.

@BenGrahamUK Push for nationalising it then. And denounce thatcher.

Instead of Ed Milibands last ditch attempt to flog net zero with £400 solar panels in supermarkets, we should follow Norway’s example:
Responsibly drill the North Sea and turn energy revenue into a sovereign wealth fund.
Energy independence. National wealth. Real climate strategy.
Net zero is failing Britain.

Talk@TalkTV
Ed Miliband has plans for £400 solar panels to be sold at supermarkets to help houses go green. "The Government is encouraging us to go down this crazy renewable route - in order to indulge Ed Miliband's net zero fetishism!" @TVKev @MarkJLittlewood
