Political cold-calling

This report says that both Labour and the Tories are continuing to phone people who are registered on the Telephone Preference Scheme.

Now I used to argue strongly that we (the Labour Party) shouldn't call TPS homes as we didn't want to annoy them. But since I've registered onto TPS, I've changed my mind.

I didn't register with TPS because I didn't want to be cold-called. I joined because of just 2 companies (I'll name and shame here, Anglian Windows and Tele2) who used to phone me most evenings and simply not take no for an answer. I don't mind if the Tories or the Labour Party phone me. I would be very interested if the Lib Dems do despite their holier-than-thou attitude.
