New electioneering tactic from Donald Anderson - Doh!

By The Basa ⋅ November 27, 2006 ⋅

In what is seen by a huge departure from normal Labour electioneering and campaigning, Donald Anderson is going to slip on his collar and tie and go in search of only voters with manners. What makes this interesting is whether he will be going after voters with good manners or possibly going for bad manners which of course would take in 2 Shags Prescott and the Glasgow bruiser John Reid.

In an amazing frank enchange of emails between the former Labour leader in Edinburgh and an elderly constituent’s son, Teflon Don stated:

Dears Sir,Be assured I will never sniff you votes from you. I prefer people with manners.

DA

Conversations on the doorsteps whilst campaigning should be very interesting. He has already blamed the elderly of the city for the almost decade long dragging of feet by the council to have a skatepark in Edinburgh when he said:

“I regard this as a bitter blow for the skateboarders in Edinburgh, whose dreams have again been shattered. This is clearly a victory for ‘grey power’ as we were unable to persuade members of the local community that a skatepark is simply another type of recreation facility,”

How he shamefully managed to abuse all the elderley of the city by blaming them en masse for a single vote in the city chambers where it was in fact one of his own labour councillors who managed sway the vote against Teflon Don’s wishes is beyond comprehension - but now he is also only accepting people with manners.

You go for it Donald - I take it people without manners and the oldies should vote for the independent candidates.
