FitheachToday (day before the EU Parliament elections in the UK) the Scottish version of the Labour Party leaflet arrived. Previously, voters in the Highlands had been sent a leaflet designed for Wales.All the leaflets are delivered as "election communications", which mean they are delivered free by Royal Mail. Does this mean that the Welsh leaflet for the Highlands mix-up was a Royal Mail error?If I were an agent for a competing party I'd be checking this situation.<a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EU</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#politics</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/leaflets" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#leaflets</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/labour" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Labour</a>

FitheachToday, the Tory EU Election leaflet arrived.A one-trick pony pushing a single policy. Other than "no more referendums" this leaflet contains no real policies. Nicola Sturgeon gets far more mentions than "Conservatives" and "Ruth Davidson" combined. This is negative campaigning on stilts.The horrible colours is not a photo failure, they really are like that.<a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EU</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#politics</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/leaflets" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#leaflets</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/tory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Tory</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/elections" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#elections</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/conservatives" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Conservatives</a>

FitheachI've kept the "best" till last."Vote for Welsh Labour"What? You complete muppets, I live in Scotland, not Wales. The clue is my address.A complete waste of money by Labour, but at least we will be able to make jokes at their expense.The leaflet design is also terrible, about as interesting as a wet Wednesday in Wrexham.<a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EU</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#politics</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/leaflets" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#leaflets</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/labour" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Labour</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/elections" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#elections</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/cymru" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Cymru</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/wales" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Wales</a>

FitheachNext up is the SNP leaflet.Of all the leaflets received so far this has the best design and has a light, airy feel. I wish though the SNP would take some new photos of Nicola, they keep using the same one.Even though this is a Euro election leaflet there is only one mention of independence. Do try harder, SNP.<a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EU</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#politics</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/leaflets" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#leaflets</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/snp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SNP</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/elections" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#elections</a>

FitheachThe first of the today's leaflets is from UKIP.Frankly, aside from the nonsense about Brexit (particularly in Scotland) anything with "UK" on it and Union Jacks goes straight in the bin.<a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EU</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#politics</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/leaflets" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#leaflets</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/ukip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UKIP</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/elections" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#elections</a>

FitheachA slew of EU Parliament election leaflets arrived on Saturday and today.First up is a suitably half-recycled (it arrived like that in the post) leaflet from the Scottish Greens.The tagline "Choose Hope Over Hate" is good, even if it is a variation of "hope over fear".Rather mischievously the bar chart on the rear omits SNP, Labour & Tories. An old electioneering tactic.<a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EU</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#politics</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/leaflets" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#leaflets</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/greens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Greens</a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/elections" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#elections</a>
