Advice to my prospective Tory MP

I have a glossy leaflet from my local prospective Conservative MP, I know who she is and where she lives but we'll pass on that.
She asks me to tick three of 8 boxes to indicate which issues concern me ( Education, Law & Order, Not Enough Recycling Facilities FFS ! , Congestion/Pollution etc. ), I ticked "other" and wrote on the line provided
" empty the bins ".
She further asks " Which one thing could our local council do to improve your quality of life ? "

"Empty the bins, I require nothing else"



I identify myself as male, aged 46-65, likely to vote UKIP out of the choices offered.
She goes on to ask me about my opinion on national issues and then asks for my comments in a smallish box.
" Defend borders and uphold the law, end of remit ( H/T Old Holborn ), disarm the Police, sell the NHS, close the BBC, leave the EU, stop picking on Muslims, abandon fake charities, disband ACPO, expose XglobaX climate change scam, de-reform local councils, no more Directors Of Directorates, ta "

How I detest box ticking. Does anyone actually do it other than you? L)

it's either banned or compulsory said...

I'm sorry subrosa, have I done something to upset you ?
You asked why few had commented upon your article so I added my pennysworth.

So that's 2,000 of us then.
