re: [Update] The UK votes to leave the EU
Interesting so called right wingers are now supporting militant posties in breaking their contracts and taking illegal industrial action in refusing to deliver the leaflet !
However as the story originated in The Sun, it probably has no foundation, apart from a single postie might have said to someone, somebody knows, as a joke... Most posties want to shove the crap through the letter box and get off their shift asap. I know mine ignores my royal mail 'junk' opt out; can't say I blame him as it probably takes up too much time to filter it out. I don't agree with this propaganda leaflet being sent; however postmen benefit from the worker protections the EU gives, which would no doubt be swept away with Brexit. |

Pity some philanthropic billionaire can't tip a few £million BREXIT's way for a similar leaflet campaign. Imagine Dave's impotent foot stamping then.:D

re: [Update] The UK votes to leave the EU
I still want to know:
1) Will we in fact get a referendum? Supposedly there was one in 1973 re the Common Market. My Mum always said no-one ever asked her, or anyone she knew. If they had, she'd have told 'em to get stuffed. 2) Will the Government abide by the result, even if - as is highly likely - it isn't the one they want? Will they, in other words, remember that the UK is - allegedly - a DEMOCRACY? I have in fact asked this question of Cameron in a letter enclosed with that stupid propaganda booklet I received today. I've used the opportunity to rant a bit and point out one or two home truths, such as the fact that the so-called voter 'apathy' is nothing of the kind - it's not that we don't care, it's that we don't really believe voting makes any real difference anymore. I did not post it stampless, however; since government's paid for by the electorate anyway, such a gesture would have little effect on Cameron directly, so I don't really see the point. Nor did I identify myself. I'm not stupid. :p: |

re: [Update] The UK votes to leave the EU
i got this from saint Nigel today
Dear ********* The government are spending £10 million of your money on pro-EU propaganda, with booklets dropping on doormats across the UK from today. It is a disgrace that the government are using taxpayers' money to promote lies about our EU membership. In response, I suggest we show the government exactly what we think of all this by doing what the great Elvis Presley once sang about - let's return to sender. Feel free of course to add any helpful comments on the document before sending it back to the Prime Minister at: 10 Downing Street London SW1A 2AA Regards, nigel_sig.jpg Nigel Farage PS: This will cost you the price of a stamp but I think it's worth doing. |

re: [Update] The UK votes to leave the EU
Don't bother sending it to number 10.
It will NOT be delivered there. It will go to a specific location first vetted then decided if to pass to DC office. Even then he's highly unlikely to ever see it. The best thing is bin it. |
re: [Update] The UK votes to leave the EU
Postman refusing to deliver political content they don't like isn't a good idea. Many on here will love it until a left-wing postman refuses to deliver a Tory or UKIP leaflet. Considering a lot of them will be Union I think this is a question of being careful what you wish for.

re: [Update] The UK votes to leave the EU
I'd send them to Labour HQ - they've done more than anyone to draw us into the EU superstate and they wouldn't even have given us the one sided referendum we have. With a bit of luck all that postage to pay would bankrupt the party. :D
