-Removed-The system wasn't equipped to deal with the high turnout -- piss-poor organisation that you blame on people being 'disorganised'. Typically Tory viewpoint, of course -- it's the people's fault -- for being sick, for being old -- cut public services now, damn their eyes. Three cheers for Trident!
Anyway, you're in for some interesting times.
Edit: The electoral commission admits there were problems:

-Removed-Actually, there seems to be more to it than that, as shown by the article I put up, but you don't seem to be bothered to read up about it.
One point of interest is that the traditionally apathetic student voting population woke up this time but were unprepared for the whole thing. This slowed down the process causing some people, who did have voting passes, to miss the boat.
Is there any advantage of doing this in a working day? Doing it on weekends allows everybody to plan their voting properly.
It's also ridiculous to stop people from voting when they are already queuing to vote. Even if it takes a few more hours or even another day, so be it. It's only a problem for the television broadcasts.
"Sorry, 10pm, try again next time" What?
