a delayed brexit is eventually good, but a rushed brexit is forever bad.

I know some right wing type parties here don't like it (probably for the same reason its not done in the UK), but it works great for everybody who isn't home on the sunday of the vote.

Many postal votes here (Austria) are from expats who will never vote right-wing because they're not xenophobic idiot garbage.

You get to vote on a Sunday? Again, in the UK that would mean that students and the working class would be able to find time to vote as they would usually get that day off. Oh no, in the UK we have to vote on a week day.

Ya, and there are tons of vote offices so you don't have to go very far and often run into neighbors / friends walking there and just chat on the way there or afterwards. Fairly communal event compared to how it works in the US.
