‘Grant immigrants the right to vote’, say researchers

National election results in the UK could look vastly different if all immigrants had the right to vote, which they should, according to new research. The researchers, from the School of Geographical Sciences at the University of Bristol, found that if all of England and Wales’ estimated 2.3 million adult immigrants had been able to vote in the 2015 general election, up to 95 parliamentary seats could have been won by a different party.
