Croft Filters Ltd, based in Warrington, U.K., has been designing and manufacturing customized filters for industry for more than 33 years. During that time, I've noticed that whenever a general election is called in the United Kingdom, the phone stops ringing, email enquiries drop off and the order book diminishes. Once the election is past, enquiries increase and orders are placed. Perhaps this is the result of a delay in proceeding with new projects until the election results are known, or by a general reluctance to spend money on new orders prior to an unknown change in tax rule, or perhaps a bit of both.
