The BBC is reporting that the request for postal vote in two Birmingham city wards have dropped since the last election by up to 80%.
The wards mentioned are Bordsley Green and Aston.
The councillors who won the seats in those wards are:-
Bordsley Green
CHOUDHRY, ZAKER [Lib Dem]
KHAN, SHAUKAT ALI [Lib Dem]
SHAH, SHAFIQUE [Lab]
Aston
AZIZ, ABDUL [Independent]
ISLAM MBE, ZIAUL [Lab]
KHAN, AYOUB [Lib Dem]
Yet from listening to Radio 4's Today programme this morning you would never have known it was largely Labour and Lib Dem councillors who benefitted.
Draw your own conclusions.

Hi AL, if this topic interests you I recommend this link

Former and current councillors and MPs of all stripes weigh in. As far as I can see someone who has been proven to have lied to the police during this investigation has returned as a councillor.
Since I know that statistically, the results you gave mean nothing at all, I have decided to answer your question honestly:
My opinion is that it's possible the Torys who were trying to manipulate the system have now stopped.
What's YOUR conclusion? I'll bet you were trying to badge something statistically meaningless as a slur on your political oponents.
Disgusting behaviour. Politics shouldn't be about scoring points off your oponents, it should be about making the world a better place.
As soon as you reduce it to petty points scoring then you become a waste of space.
interesting blog. It would be great if you can provide more details about it. Thanks you
