An elderly couple have received a letter from Theresa May asking for their support in the upcoming local elections addressed “Dear Mr Fuckingjoking.”

Their neighbour posted it on social media, along with the enclosed form asking for a donation to the Conservative Party that she says accompanied the rude missive.

“Trying to argue they can run the country when they can’t even work mail merge,” said Laura McCormack, adding, “my elderly neighbours were more than a little upset to be addressed in this manner.”

The letter signed Theresa May, complains that “Labour’s organisation was better in many seats,” and says “we cannot allow them to succeed.” Hailing the Government’s Brexit progress, the rudely addressed letter asks for donations for the upcoming Conservative local election campaign.

A Conservative spokesperson said “it is unacceptable that this letter was sent out and we apologise for any offence caused.

“We are currently investigating this matter to ensure it does not happen again.”

I work in direct marketing and this should have been picked up. All the data would/should have been processed beforehand and checked for stuff like this. This one is so obvious it should never have got through.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.

If you can afford to contribute a small donation to the site it will help us to continue our work in the best interests of the public. We only ask you to donate what you can afford, with an option to cancel your subscription at any point.
