5. I've had such leaflets from all the parties in my time!

My ward was LibDem for many years; Labour since last May's elections. We get stuff from both parties, and occasionally from the Greens

"Community Champion Les applauds 40% reduction in dog poo on - Ward pavements" sounds fairly typical. Though the Labour and Green ones do address policy issues somewhat more than the LibDem ones.

Although the County Council is Tory-controlled, there is not a single Tory on the City Council, and their efforts round here are fairly intermittent. However, the constituency does have a Tory MP with a small majority; and every now and then she sends out glossy leaflets about everything that she and/or the national government have supposedly been doing for the constituency; and one one occasion a very dishonest questionnaire, designed to make people think they supported Tory policies. More-or-less: 'Would you rather (a) have your Council Tax reduced; (b) be trampled by a herd of elephants?'
