Oh dear. Oh deary me. I think you can guess what’s coming… so without further ado, here’s the evidence.

Photograph A: illegally flyposted Conservative election posters.

Photograph B: illegally flyposted Conservative election posters removed by Ealing Council (insert outrage at hard-pressed local Council Tax payers having to fund the tidying up etc etc).

Conservative flyposting in Ealing Southall - removal

Photograph C and D: the people who erected the Conservative posters. (Doubtless they weren’t acting on behalf of Grant Shapps, but instead the number keypad code on the Conservative poster store was 1234 and someone sneaked in and stole the posters, etc etc).

(Click on the photos for a large size version.)

PS If you’re wondering how come I’ve got photographs of all of this, it’s because the site in question is just round the corner from the Liberal Democrat by-election HQ.

They don’t look very happy at being caught on camera, do they?

They certainly don’t look as if they’ve won the lottery…

OK, that definitely wins comment of the month. 😀

Interestingly, the Lib Dems aren’t mentioned….

If the LibDems aren’t mentioned then that isn’t so much interesting as a serious oversight. The party came second last time – with the Tories finishing third – and the LibDem candidate is the only candidate of the three main parties who has not donated money to the Labour party.

That’s right next to Sunrise Radio.
