Liberal Democrats in Andover have been criticised for delivering leaflets during lockdown. Residents in the south of town received leaflets from the party on January 4. At the time, Andover was under Tier Four restrictions, which carried a ‘Stay at Home’ message, except for essential activities. Hampshire Constabulary confirmed to the Advertiser that “there is no exception” for leafleting under the regulations, with one town councillor accusing the party of having “one rule for them” and another for the rest of the public. However, the Liberal Democrats said that the deliveries were “in accordance with national legal guidance and advice” and that contact with no members of the public had been made.
