You think they’d be used to it by now: Lib Dem MP can’t spell “failed”

The Liberal Democrats should, by this point, be comfortable with the concept of failure. If not their failure to implement certain high-profile policies they supported before the last election in Government, then you would think their 11 lost by-election deposits (including the worst ever by-election result by a major party) would acclimatise them to general feeling of what it means to fail.

But no! Julian Huppert, of that photograph fame, has managed to rise above other forms of failing, like flotsam from the Lib Dem shipwreck, with one of the greatest examples of meta-failure ever witnessed. On his latest election leaflet, he accuses Labour of consistent failure – and manages to spell “failed” wrong:

Lib Dem failied

But can he spell “broken promises”?
