"Register to vote form:new disclaimer version" purpose of this fake form anyone ?

I had that a few weeks back. Although it's set up to look like it comes from Southwark at first glance, it's hard to see what a scammer would gain as it doesn't include the codes you'd need to login and there are plenty of obvious mistakes, as you point out. I called Southwark anyway to make sure they were aware. The person I spoke sounded a bit baffled, even after discussing with colleagues, and said just ignore it.
I even wondered if the point was to get you to use a link that would download some kind of malware but, as you say, post seems an expensive and uphill way to go about that. Perhaps someone pressed send by mistake on a test version - but even that seems unlikely as with print you could pull it back before it left the building. Odd, isn't it.

    • I need to go to Asda in the Old Kent Road tomorrow. Theoretically I can get a 78 or 363 bus, but it looks as if the bus stop at East Dulwich Road/Peckham Rye may be closed. I don't know why, but I assume it may be due to gas or water works. Does anybody know if it is just this bus stop, or are other bus stops (or the routes) affected?  I don't want to get a nasty surprise tomorrow, as I have an appointment, so it's time critical.
