Don’t blame the fucking printing business, own your fucking mistake. If politicians can’t even own insificant mistakes like this then they’re obviously not going to hold their hands up when they inventively fuck something up more critical.

The thing is the printer didn’t write it someone in conservative HQ wrote it and then sent it to the printer to be printed. It’ll be some company that just makes customised chocolate wrappers, I guarantee no human working at the printers ever looked at it.

Somebody saw it. Printers don’t let you send in whatever the fuck you want and then blindly print it. Someone had to look at the initial proof to be certain it matched what was sent it. Then someone had to at least glance to make sure it was coming off the printer properly.
Whether it’s the printers job to inform the client of a spelling mistake or whether they have a policy to print exactly what’s sent them (within policy), I’d lay blame this on the creator.

Yeah exactly, that’s what I mean.
