I feel like there ought to be some question about who these people are, and in what countries.
So when I tell you that Labour and the Lib Dems have similar party arms (maybe others too) your response is?
I don't know about the Lib Dems, but in the Labour Party, you must be either a British citizen or have residency for at least a year in the UK to become a member. Labour abroad is for when your address is not in the UK, but you must still be a British (or Irish) citizen to be eligible.
Similar, for sure, and not how I'd design it myself, but does clear up the very thing the article is criticising.
