For example: Labour sent me a "survey" asking me to rank the items on their pledge card in order of priority. (My report on it to TSC via democracyclub is here: http://www.thestraightchoice.org/leaflet.php?q=1221) The Lib Dems sent me a two-page survey about crime, with an unusual blue (police/tory) colour scheme, which finished up with a "can't win here" dodgy bar chart and came in the same envelope as a postal vote registration form. The survey bit is here: http://www.thestraightchoice.org/leaflet.php?q=1222 and the payoff bit is here: http://www.thestraightchoice.org/leaflet.php?q=1223 I'm quite sure these are both ways of a) inducing the recipient to read the party's headline material and b) giving an impression of "openness". -- The only thing worse than e-mail disclaimers...is people who send e-mail to lists complaining about them
