All campaign literature (certainly from Labour) is sent out with party funds. We all pays subs each month and this goes towards printing costs, etc.
The individual leaflets are a simple matter of trying to reach voter in the borough rather than just every household. If the person who gets a leaflet through the door bins it straight then away another voter in the house who may well be interested will not see it.
It all boils down to an extra effort to try and persuade people to vote Labour but it never costs the public a penny.
