You mentioned that you've got this right-wing elector that needs to be activated, but again, I'm not as familiar, I'm not super familiar with how your system of governance works, but it does seem like it ain't happening.

0:11.4

I mean, how do you actually make it this? This is the time they're going to activate after all of these failings.

0:18.2

Well, it has to be the time because at the moment, Muhammad is the number one baby name

in the UK. Here's the story from the New York Times. The UK plans to lower the voting age
