Mood: don't ask
Now Playing: Bing Crosby
Well my meeting with Benny didn't go too well yesterday. Seems like the election campaign isn't going to plan and we may be forced into a bit of ballot rigging to get some sort of result. Benny seemed a bit distracted yesterday looking at Teletext every five minutes, said he had an expert in manipulating figures flying in and wanted to know when his plane landed. As soon as he saw that the plane from Lagos had landed he was off like a rat out of an aqueduct.
The problems with the campaign stem from some of our policies. Seems the man on the street doesn't like our idea of carpet bombing Croydon to push up property values elsewhere in the area. Apparently Croydon is a popular shopping destination, can't see why to tell the truth, no decent Kosher food shop there. Also the compulsory window cleaning thing isn't going down well. This is a key plank of our strategy for a cleaner area and will disappoint The Window Cleaner and threaten our alliance if it is dropped.
So unless something dramatic happens I may not be replacing Liebeman yet, but of course there are two days of campaigning left, and as someone once said 'Two days is a long time in politics."
Shalom
