SIR: Last night we came home and found a delivery of the Liberal-Democrats' Bolton North East Focus on our doorstep. Not only do we live well inside the Bolton West Constituency, but 20 copies of their leaflet were delivered!
They missed their objective by a mile for another reason too - our house is bedecked with posters showing our support for Labour's Ruth Kelly! With organisation and knowledge of the local geography like this, it's no wonder that their candidate will come a very poor third in Bolton West.
Like their campaign nationally, she is very much "lost and out of focus".
By the way, does anyone want an armful of Lib-Dem leaflets? We'd paper our house with them, but they're the wrong colour.
