Doc Barbara calms election fever

   We are all keen to follow the election preliminaries but Doc Barbara, determined as always to uphold her civic duties, is  resolved on adding her bit. Aware that politicians might be travelling around the country stirring up apathy whilst voters agonise over their choice, she has manufactured a machine that will deduce the personality of anyone using it and advise them on which way to cast their vote.

   She will  park herself, her machine and her assistant in Trafalgar Square and will accost passers by at random. Her helper was carefully selected so that he does not resemble any of the leaders but, now that he is in place, Doc Barbara fears that he has a look of them all when viewed from different angles.
