So Nick Clegg plans to annoy the hell out of 250,000 people after his speech by cold calling homes in the Lib Dems 50 target seats.
Obviously this isn’t the same Nick Clegg who launched the ‘Faceless Britain’ campaign in February against the Government’s alleged reliance on call centres and the lack of “face-to-face contact.”
He said at the launch: “With every year that goes by, more and more services that used to offer face to face contact are being replaced by systems that are centralised, remote and inhuman. We are seeing the progression of an unaccountable state, creating increasingly remote systems that are divorced from the people they are supposed to serve.”
Perhaps he meant Two-Faceless Britain?
UPDATE: It’s getting worse. The Information Commissioner is now demanding to see the call script as it might be classed as a nuisance call! The investigation was launched after the SNP pointed out that they were criticised for doing the same thing in 2005 - by the Lib Dems!

Perhaps he’s going to tell them about his recently-announced plans to cut the state pension to thirty quid a week (no doubt to pay for his unfunded proposed tax bribes to Middle Englanders)…

Oh it’s so much fun to see Labour on the run! How many Labour seats will be lost to the Lib Dems? Shall we start counting now?
