Topic: Lib Dem Scutters!

Well the Lib Dems have now lost my vote for life.  I got something called the "Ealing, Southall & Hanwell News" which was pretending to be another free newspaper, with the headline "TORIES ADMIT THEY CAN'T WIN".

Opening it up it's clear is a political leaflet in support of the Lib Dem candidate.

Now - all the parties are campaigning - but why pretend it's a bloody newspaper?  Maybe it's not "pretending" to be a free newspaper?  Well - it has blue and red text on the front (no orange) and is clearly made to look like a newspaper.

What is this about?  How bloody insulting!  When I actually bothered to read the content it's all incredibly negative - an unnamed Tory shadow cabinet source has admitted they can't win (names please), nurses should be given a fair pay deal (not telling us how much this is and how he would pay for it though), crime needs to be tackled (but no mention of how this will be done), the Lib Dems don't support the war in Iraq (ok thanks, but didn't need a fake newspaper to tell me that) and some spurious opinion poll claiming that Labour have 37% of something, Lib Dem 31% and the tories 22%, so therefore only Nigel Bakhai can beat Labour.

Now maybe I just feel like this because I've had a hard day at work but the Lib Dems have really shown themselves to be singularly unprincipled, negative, conniving scutters and frankly it is hard to imagine ever voting for them under any circumstances without a personal apology for attempting to deceive me in such an insultingly crap way.

It's down to the Tories, Labour and Spoiled Ballot...
