Farage: ‘Electoral process dead’ in Oldham
UKIP leader Nigel Farage says “bent� postal votes played a part in the Oldham West and Royton by-election, which was won by Labour with a majority of 10,835.
Mr Farage told the Today programme that there were “big ethnic changes in the way people are voting�.
“In some of these seats, where ... people don't speak English but they're signed up to postal votes, effectively the electoral process is now dead,� he told presenter Sarah Montague.
