I thought I saw a letter to the editor suggesting that an important examination be scheduled for 08:00 March 18 or thereabouts. But honestly I think your idea is more practical. I’m not even sure I’m joking. It’s one of those humorous ideas that just might be the ticket. I’m pretty sure there is a long and honourable tradition of strategically scheduling road works for partisan advantage.
Thanks! And it is a little bit humorous, but in all honesty, I think Waterloo could hit it out of the park on this one and potentially save a lot of money by not getting involved in something that is likely to give them more headaches than the party itself.
It is thinking outside the box, though, and perhaps not sophisticated enough for the likes of their staff.
