Coffee Shots: Liberal Democrats struggle with the small print

As the Liberal Democrats fight for survival in the general election, word reaches Mr S that things in the yellow camp may be even more dire than first thought.

Mr S received this Lib Dem leaflet from one of his sources, the small print of which seems totally incomprehensible. Surely things can’t be so bad that the party can no longer afford spaces between words? As you can see, it’s pretty hard to read:

libdem

smallpd

And closer:

smalld

Mr S is getting election fatigue just looking at it. Maybe it’s just best not to read the small print.
