        They had their chance, they should've registered, why should they get special treatment?

        @flamingyam wait, wouldn't everyone rather more people voted? Seems like democracy to me. And that's good, right?

        There was a closing date. Everyone was told. Why extend it cos some pple didn't care enough to register earlier?

        why should it be extended? If you haven't given a toss for the last 6 months the last 6 hours shouldn't matter. Grow up Britain

        why cos people took it at a lethargic pace & didn't act when warned to get on and register, that is taking responsibility

        @BBCNews serves them right for leaving it to the last second. Dont deserve a vote if they cant be bothered to register.
