Editorial: One welcome outcome from this week’s referendums is the addition of more than 300,000 new voters
Clearly a better job has to be done in educating voters when pretty complex issues drop on voters’ shoulders. More than 300,000 applications to the electoral register have been made online, leading to the greatest addition ever to the voter pool in time for the referendums. The big additional intake means a large number of new voters are likely to cast their ballots for the first time. This enables people to register to vote at any time of year, both online as well as in paper form. Given the lazy attitude of local councils towards the register for decades, a national focus is welcome.

Technicians at Tekeir, a consumer electronics company partnered with refurbedAs well as doing your bit for reducing environmental pollution, by opting for a second-hand device, there are also cost benefits in getting ‘old’ phones out of the junk drawer at home. Some of those chunky old pre-smartphone devices “were built to last”, Mr Power says, and may still be useful for spare parts if you take them to a shop such as CEX, which has more than 35 outlets across the country. Refurbed doesn’t yet buy phones in Ireland, but Mr Power says: “If you have unused devices at home that are just going to be getting older, then consider gifting them to a family member or selling them.

The Yorkshire businessman who has to bank cheques... in London: JEFF PRESTIRDGE
Barclays Bank is certainly making life difficult for many customers as it continues to take an axe to its branches. Barclays shut its branch in Ilkley two years ago although in its defence it hasn't been the only bank to desert the town. Or in extremis, he will bank the occasional cheque he receives at a Barclays branch when he is down in London on business. Bank branch closures, I fear, will be a recurring theme this year. It's not quite all doom and gloom on the bank branch front.

Editorial: Referendum confusion is Government’s fault
The campaigns, particularly by those advocating a Yes vote to both questions, have been distinctly underwhelming. Photo: Getty ImagesIrish citizens will be asked to vote on Friday in two referendums to change our Constitution. When a government proposes constitutional change, the minimum to be expected is that it properly explains why such change is necessary in the first place, and then robustly makes the case for it. The family founded on marriage means the unit based on a marriage between two people without distinction as to their sex. In either referendum, if citizens vote No, there will be no relevant change to the Constitution.
