A great morning in Hampden Park around the Hydneye area, delivering our new leaflet. The shopworker in the Morrison’s was on her own. Her co-worker had not come to work. She was running the whole place by herself, dealing with customers, and watching out for looters. This is really unacceptable.
One chap shouted ‘no junk mail’ after I’d leafleting his house. Of course, I just kept walking. But it did make me reflect a bit. As we just commemorated D-Day, when those 17 and 18 year-olds stormed the beaches of Normandy to defend our democracy, and as that morning young women and men were dying in Ukraine to defend their democracy, I thought how far from ‘junk’ the leaflet was.
