Should you have the time,
the technique is to waste 15 minutes of their time, showing intense interest in many policies from the local Tory candidate, then when they are looking at their watch,
ask the killer question; 'What about food banks/Police numbers/school funding',
to leave them wondering how much of an 'undecided' you are.Your investment of 15 minutes has hopefully prevented them bothering 8 - 10 other people.

I thought at first she was a courier from Herpes or whoever trying to deliver something to me so I briefly engaged . By the time I realised she wasn't it was too late and I needed to get back indoors and I think she'd had enough too because she said " I'm freezing my arse off out here doing this ha ha ha ).
I'll try that technique next time :)

I had a Esprit de l'escalier* moment this morning when going out to check my post box.
There outside the post boxes and next to the intercom buttons was a nice jolly Conservative woman trying to contact me on my intercom thingy but I was obviously out.
Ah ! Mr not4sale ?
Yes I am?
She asked me what my voting intentions were ... bottled it* so she told me that we must stop this Labour leader cos he will ' spend us to death and he supports terrorists y'know'.
I didn't take her Conservative leaflet and she put me down as undecided - (bollocks I am).
BTW the only thing in my post box was the Labour leaflet.
