You obviously have a problem with facts.
Discovered by chance as someone reported odd goings on.

Early on a June morning last year, four police officers drew up outside a warehouse on a deserted trading estate in Birmingham. Inside they found several men sitting at a table with postal ballots piled in front of them.
"I saw plenty of ballot papers with crosses on them and I saw unsealed envelopes that were of A5 size," one of the constables said later.
What they were witnessing, elections commissioner Richard Mawrey, QC said yesterday, was the three Labour candidates for the Aston ward in Birmingham caught "red handed" carrying out postal voting fraud by altering ballot papers or filling in blank papers they had collected from householders.
It could have led to the uncovering of organised forgery and corruption, through a campaign of bribery, death threats and intimidation.
...

The warehouse incident was one of the more colourful examples of postal voting fraud heard by the court during the four-week hearing.
The judge identified 15 types of fraud which included thousands of votes in favour of Labour where the signature of the purported voter differed from that on the application for a postal vote, and the wholesale theft of ballot papers.
Corrupt postmen had handed over sacks of postal ballots to Labour candidates, little boys had been paid to steal postal ballots from letterboxes and bags full of postal votes had arrived late at the count, to be included without question in the poll.
That just one area of the country.
With selection of Labour MPs and councillors, voting fraud was rife. People were being signed up as party members without their knowledge, and their votes stolen.
