fellow travellers

Today I got a single delivery of flyers through the door, all rolled up in each other. The outside one, addressed to me, exhorted me to vote for the Liberal Democrats. The inside pair asked me to reconsider in favour of UKIP and the BNP respectively. Churchill is pictured on the UKIP one (not a cleverly-selected icon, history fans); the BNP one pictures a doctor. I want to know where he is a doctor. It is not that I want only to be treated by doctors who agree with my political views, but I'd prefer not to be treated by doctors who are demonstrably idiots.
