LibDem crassness

A mysterious publication 'Snap!' was delivered 'free' to us today. Well. it would be mysterious were it not for its exceedingly crass and un-subtle promotion of scary April. In UKIP colours it is clearly designed for submission to the Pontiff for her sainthood candidacy. The main photo prominently features a pet dog whilst elsewhere in this 'publication' pages are filled with shamelessly raiding of the family photo album in a bid to out Norfolk everyone else and demonstrate her 'normal family' pedigree. Meanwhile 'Snap!' exclusives report on the shocking extremism of the Greens and parade the usual poor gullible ex-Labour supporter whose occasional leaflet delivery has been elevated into 19 years of active campaigning on doorsteps.

Never before having been in a constituency during a by-election, I've not come across the LibDems famed by-election machine at work until now. They really should grow up - a more juvenile, patronising and insulting clutch of election material I have yet to see. Ironically it is coupled with another favoured LibDem tactic - the 'clean campaign' pledge to 'fight on issues' and constant carping at others negative campaigning. Pot. Kettle. Black.
