On April 30th, liberal Democrats in Hammersmith and Fulham caught a big slip-up on their election leaflet, misspelling Shepard's Bush green as Shepard's Bush, twice, while pushing their candidates there. They're gunning for those seats with Data Consultant Fergus Ustianowski and Communications Pro, Elsie Gislegard, come May 7th. The leaflet breaks down their plans against labor and the greens, hitting on social housing and council tax records, like poor repair ratings for. Greens in Bristol and Labor's issues locally. Lib Dems promise strict repair deadlines with auto-compensation, public contractor scores, and regular checks for damp and mold. Locals aren't letting it slide. One Shepard's Bush resident called it sloppy, saying it doesn't look good for folks who can't spell their own ward. Candidate Elsie Gislegard owned up quick, blaming late-night rushes after door knocking, with no paid help or big budget. Turns out this ain't the first time. The word name got bossed before as Shepard's Bush green. All 50 council seats are
upper grabs on May 7th, and a fresh J.L. Partners poll has lived Dems at 20%, trailing Labor's 39. Proofreading might tip the skills in a tight race like this. Elections heat up fast, so watch those details before the ballots drop.
