I have just received a letter from Dr Carlton Brand of Wiltshire Council (their electoral registration officer), explaining how there would be both an electoral register, and an open register (available for commercial use). Proof reading is obviously not high on the agenda.
Paragraph 3: “Your details are not on the open register. To be added to the open register please contact us using the details at the top of this letter”.
Paragraph 6: “Your name and address will be included in the open register unless you ask for them to be removed”.
I’m not impressed.
