Former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson was turned away from a polling station in South Oxfordshire for not having required photo ID, a result of legislation he enacted.
The Elections Act, introduced under Johnson's leadership, mandates voters to present photo ID like a passport or driving licence to combat electoral fraud.
This incident highlights Johnson being caught in the snare of his own law. He couldn't participate in selecting officials until he retrieved his ID.
