I do recall being sent home to get my polling card many years ago which is why I thought that at one point you had to have them - perhaps the chap was just being overly officious. It's surprising what a bit of power does to folk😁
I remember people standing outside polling stations asking to see polling cards I think that they were representatives of political parties monitoring the election, one asked "will you be voting Labour again"? when I asked how he knew that I had voted Labour before he said "because you told us that you did".
