These are the leaflets the Conservative Party is currently putting out in London.

Just straightforward disinformation, designed to trick people into handing over their data.

Productive #labourdoorstep this morning. Lots of support for GE but some Tory anti-motorist misinfo has stuck, even with Labour voters. Don’t be complacent about voting #SadiqKhan May 2, Tory Susan Hall would be a nightmare for London! Had to rush back to feed this little one ❤️

Children killed in conflicts:

🌍 World (2019-2022): 12,193

🇵🇸 Gaza (Oct '23 - Feb '24): 12,300

Thames Water bills could rise by up to 56% or £262 per year for average household by 2030.
