The big story is not yes or no, but how can the uk get this kind of
turnout for council and ntional elections without making it illegal not to
vote.


No one has worked out how to do that.

The answer of course is that people need to believe the issues are
important, and that any promises made will actually come to pass.


Its more complicated than that.

They also need have decided that what they are voting on matters to them.

It hardly ever does with most council or national elections.

You don’t even see that sort of turnout for stuff like joining the EU or
not.
