Title: Party Political Broadcasts
Post by: Miss Demeanour on November 13, 2019, 07:07:02 PM
So listened to some slop from one of the parties ..the labour one.
Which didn't actually have any  politician explaining any plans just 'real people' giving their views and thoughts.

One of which was a firefighter etc explaining how they would invest in public services such as the Fire Service.

Working in the public service myself we are given very strict guidelines about  ensuring we are not involved in any political shenanigans for any party during Purdah.

So how can any currently employed fire service employee be on telly asking people to vote for a party?
