Stop Cameron Spending Our Money On Pro Eu Leaflets Petition

[lindapalmara]

There are already over twice the signatures needed on this Government petition but at least it registers people's concern. Please sign it. This is a travesty.

///The official 'leave' group will get £7 million of TAXPAYERS money to fund the campaign ///

No they won't. Stop talking nonsense.

[Bazile]

And what makes you think Royal Mail is
going to return these leaflets ?

[Zacs-Master]

Now that would be something worth signing a petition for.

[tonyav]

Haven't had one yet, don't want one when / if I get one it will be filed under R for rubbish and slung in the bin.

[Svejk]

///Cameron only promised a referendum to prevent a landslide UKIP vote, because they had threatened the very same. ///

Yes, togo, and the last thing he expected was having to honour that pledge. If he didn't lose the election, not having a referendum would have been blamed on his coalition partners. Imagine his initial euphoria on election night draining away with the grim realisation that he had an unexpected outright majority and could no longer blame the Liberals for all his weaknesses and failures.

[Svejk]

I've read that if you tape a penny to the leaflet and return it to Conservative Party Headquarters, they have to accept and pay the postage on it.

[Svejk]

^And stick this i the envelope too;

OK, I'll tape a penny to it as well.

[tonyav]

Did you know that you can be chucked out of the commons for calling Dodgy Dave 'Dodgy Dave'.

[jourdain2]

No, I didn't - but Dennis Skinner is well-used to being chucked out of the Commons by now. I have developed a respectful, amused tolerance of him and his wife comes over as a lovely, balanced person (from interviews in the past).

Perhaps 'Dave's Dodgy Deals' might have passed the censor?

[tonyav]

Yep, the 'Beast Of Bolsover' strikes again.

[EDDIE51]

Svejk the bit about 'have to accept it' is rubbish. They will get a card saying that an unpaid item addressed to them is waiting at the sorting office. They can then choose to go and pick it up or not, you are even allowed to look at the post item and pick it up but not look inside before you decide to pay the postage or not. That is the policy for all unpaid items addressed to anybody anywhere in the UK. The Post Office WILL NOT deliver the item, only a card saying the item is waiting at the sorting office. So if anyone wants to waste time doing it just realize they will not even see it ! It will just p*** off the postie. Same would apply if you decide to return an item un-stamped to the 'leave' headquarters as well !

[Caran]

Received ours today, posted it back to Downing Street without a stamp!

[Mamyalynne]

They'll need an extension building on the local sorting office to store them , I'll read or not depending on how I feel on the day then recycle responsibly.

Svejk Referendum funding information here
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-eu-referendum-35930898
Now can we stop this nonsense that only the 'stay' side get official funding!
The problem for the 'leave' side is that they are still fighting among themselves ( 3 groups all fighting each other) as to which will be designated the official 'leave' group and get the cash! They have until Thursday 14th April to make up their minds !

[tamaris]

I received one yesterday what a disgraceful waste of money, I will be sending it back, without a stamp, unwanted junk mail.

[dannyk13]

Delivered yesterday, on its way back to Downing Street.

[Svejk]

Eddie. From your own link; up to £600,000. Very different to the £7,000,000 that you keep stating. (whether deliberately or through ignorance, who can say)

[steg]

The elected gov of uk is telling the people of uk its view on referendom and very rightly so.

[dannyk13]

Steg, I don't remember seeing any news about parliament debating this.It is a Cameron publication.
