Electoral Commission catch 'Foot in Mouth'

'Foot in Mouth' Disease expected to reach epidemic proportions within a week.

Rumour and speculation are predicting that the 'Foot in Mouth' disease that has broken out in the North East is expected to reach epidemic proportions.
Because symptoms were not treated immediately there are now pockets popping up all over.

The Electoral Commission has also succumbed.

A call to the North East No Campaign on Thursday of last week came from Terry at the Royal Mail distribution centre in Gateshead.

"Good morning, North East No Campaign."

" Is that Philip?"

"No, it's Neil. How can I help?"

"This is Terry from the Royal Mail to help sort out the leaflet drop for the No Campaign."

"Terry, you will be wanting Philip at the North East Says No Campaign in Durham. Here is their number. Can I ask why you came to us?

"Well, I rang the Electoral Commission and asked them for the telephone number for the No campaign and they gave me your number."

Would be funny if it wasn't for the fact that the Electoral Commission gave the NESNO campaign Designation as the official No group two days previously.
