UK-Bin-Dependence.


The other day when she was on her way home from work, my girlfriend spotted this:


It’s quite appropriate really, as that’s probably the best place in which to cast your UKIP vote.

I’m surprised that the owner wasn’t struck by the irony of scrawling ‘VOTE UKIP’ on the side of their dustbin; I can think of more appropriate places to declare political affiliations. I know all publicity is supposed to be good publicity – but it’s probably best to not concentrate your campaign on an object most associated with rubbish.

Maybe it was meant as a metaphor for the state the UK will be in if we remain a part of Europe? If so, that's not the way it comes across. At least they chose the bin that matches the party's favoured colour scheme the most.

If nothing else, it's good to have a place to file your UKIP propaganda.
