Liam Fox urges Brexit supporters to sent their leaflets back to No 10

Liam Fox, the Conservative former defence secretary and leading Brexit campaigner, thinks people should protest about the government’s pro-EU leaflet by sending them back to Number 10. According to the Telegraph, he told Sky News:
I don’t want my taxes to be used for pro-EU propaganda so when I get my leaflet I’m going to stick it in an envelope addressed to Number 10 and I would suggest others do the same.


That's precisely what I told Mrs O I was going to with it last night. Great minds think alike! :lol:

I thought to do the same, and I am in the Remain camp. :lol:

The job of government is to govern, not to tell the people what to think.

However, with all the dung hitting the spinning thing, it looks to have backfired. :roll: :lol:

Well it would certainly cause a mail problem initially. I wonder how many people they would have to draft in to deal with the problem and how they would differentiate the important from the mundane. If I get one I'll do the same.
