Conservative HQ Forget Isle of Wight

Anyone seen the new Conservative election slogan “We’re all in this together”? Sounds fair enough, don’t you think?

Conservative HQ Forget Isle of WightWell, it seems that one eagle eyed VB reader has spotted a flaw in the slogan.

Terry O’Neil contacted VB yesterday to point out that on the map used in the Tory party’s election material, they seem to have left off the Isle of Wight. He spotted it whilst watching BBC News 24 on Tuesday evening.

Taking a look through the Conservative’s Flickr Stream it appears that he’s correct.

Could it really be true that those at Conservative HQ have forgotten the fact that this Island has been enjoying a Tory MP for many years, not to mention a Tory administration since 2005?

Ironic perhaps also, that the photo above was taken in front of Battersea Power Station, a sad legacy of the Thatcher years.
