We should not let the Bradford West Lib Dem deposit forfeiture pass without recalling this excellent song from the Liberator Songbook. It is sung lustily at most conferences to the tune of ‘Waltzing Matilda’:
Once a floating voter came across a polling booth,
Went inside to cast his vote,
When he came out, he found he’d voted Liberal.
Who’ll come a-losing deposits with me?

Of that song was written in the days that one of your pictured notes would be forfeit. These days tenfold are required.
