Why don't people turn out to vote?     Some countries fine people if they don't vote and I know of some people who never bother to vote but I bet they would be the first to complain if the vote was taken off them

A record turnout for a Senedd election in Caerphilly but still only half the population bothered to turn out to vote.

First migrants detained under 'one in, one out' deal with France

Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said: "Yesterday, under the terms of this ground-breaking new treaty, the first group of people to cross the Channel were detained after their arrival at Western Jet Foil and will now be held in detention until they can be returned to France.
I wonder when this will be as I heard on BBC News today that the process will take about 3 months before it comes in to force?
