I was rung by a telephone pollster around ten days ago asking for my views.

If anyone tries to pass their 'results' off as a genuine reflection of
public opinion then I'm sure the Electoral Commission may have
something to say. The fact that they don't publish who they are on the
literature isn't a good start.

In the mean time, I'm thinking about querying this one with:
http://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/

If anyone tries to pass their 'results' off as a genuine reflection of
public opinion then I'm sure the Electoral Commission may have
something to say. The fact that they don't publish who they are on the
literature isn't a good start.

Anyone else seen the posters that have been sellotaped to various bus 
shelters in and around the city centre: "Should Alex scupper the trams?" it 
asks, and then give you a chance to text AYE, NAY, or BOTHERED (i.e. not 
fussed either way).

Looks like a big money making scam. No address or name of the promoter, no 
indication of text/call charges, just a note that all proceeds raised to go 
to a "media campaign".

Steer clear, folks. This is not a genuine referendum.

No...

I was rung by a telephone pollster around ten days ago asking for my views.
I presume that was genuine as no money changed hands.
