This mailing is part of due process for elections though.

We'll all get one from the Vote Leave camp too.  Allowing both parties fund to put forward their views and inform the known electorate sounds pretty fair to me

One is self funding, the other funded by us.

Nope, they're both funded by us

Now Vote Leave has been selection as the official campaign body for the Brexit camp both will be allowed to spend up to £7m, get a free mailshot (from taxpayer funding), access TV broadcasts and £600,000 public funds.

The problem with Cameron's use of our taxes is that he paid out the £9.3m before the start of the official campaigns.  Once started both sides are limited to £7m.
So the Remain campaign will have the benefit of £16.3m, whereas the Leave campaign gets only £7m for its funding...that's the Etonian version of fair play  :dan

In this case the facts show a misuse of public money by Dodgy Dave. This £9m piece of propaganda isn't even factually correct,  so nine million quids worth of crap,  most of which will end up in a skip outside No 10 as the letterbox will be full  :police:

I think traffic wardens will vote IN as they show an affection for international tolerance .

Heard cases of dodgy parking tickets issued in recent days, for example a  car rear hanging over badly marked yellow lines by 3ins in one case .

Yesterday I witnessed a car parked a considerable distance over the yellow lines in West St in front of the main entrance to the Municipal Buildings .  Later on  my return from shopping it was still retaining the same spot with no apparent parking ticket issued .

Can anyone tell me where I can purchase a set of these number plates with a white background and black lettering ?

You are not suggesting that there is one rule for us and another for EU migrants, concerning road traffic violations ;)

According to Professor Patrick Minford of the Institute of Economic Affairs each household will be better off post Brexit by £9200.
So if the true figure lies somewhere between these two figures then it sounds like a great deal.
George Osborne - the Etonian Arthur Daley of Economics v the eminent Professor, it's a no-brainer  :dan

Osbourne claiming what the financial position will be in 15 years time !!!!!!!

This from the man who has produced budgets that have been proved  flawed  within 15 days .

Dodgy Dave and Arfur Osborne have been using their Etonian code of conduct during the run up to  the election allegedly.
Bringing activists into marginal constituencies on the Tory battle bus and then not declaring the hotel bills as electioneering expenses.  Apparently if this pushes the electioneering expenses above £15k for an individual constituency, then it would be classed as electoral malpractice and there would have to be a by-election  :dan

Meanwhile Dodgy Dave has enlisted the help of the world's number one snake - oil salesman for his anti - Brexit campaign  :o
