Leaflets and visit from the Green Party.

They are really putting some effort into getting elected.

If this lot  (Sheffield Greens) are as good as those in Brighton, gawd help us. They unfortunately got in as the current Labour council had to resign en masse, and immediately turned the place into a dump, as well as destroying a site of ecological importance - to create a cycle path in an area where even the locals don't cycle, for reasons of its deserved reputation.

It must be the season, we have local elections too coming up here in Lux.

 

This morning’s haul: green and CSV leaflets and, unexpectedly, a full copy of country’s Constitution (high gsm, bound, quite high quality) from our Parliament.
 

CSV guy looks too much like my soon-to-be-ex boss, so recycling. Same with the greens, just a load of well-greyed OAPs.

I had 2 one from Domino’s and one from a Chinese restaurant.

You would be better off voting for either of them,   then at least you will get something to eat and not starve with the added bonus of hypothermia if you voted Tory.

The conservative conmen certainly don't miss many tricks.

That's like introducing voting identification which will put of the young mainly and the young ones  tend to vote Labour.

More young people don't vote in the first place and young people are more easily put off by red tape ( and can find probably better and more fun things to do )

Why is it red tape if they already have it ? why would the Government change it, if the young don’t vote in the first place ? Your argument doesn’t stand up .

I'm not arguing.   I didn't tell them to change it and I haven't asked them why. They say it's to stop voter fraud.    I didn't decide the policy,  the politicians did.

The Tories think it gives them an advantage and Labour thinks it works against them.

Ask them why
