They'll be down a street near you shortly with clipboards in hand.
If you haven't got yours open by 7am you're bound to be a shirkster.

This one really did do my head in.
I'm out at work most days – usually leaving home at between 7 and 7.30am. I very rarely have the blinds in the two windows that face onto the main road, at ground level, open then or even later in the day when I get home – simply for reasons of privacy. I'm awake/up by 7am most weekends too, but the bedroom blinds are almost never opened at all.
It's the assumption that's so extraordinary – and the unquestioning manner in which so many people accept these utterly bonkers statements.
Beyond that, though, the idea that one should do things around one's own home on the basis of how others, who wouldn't know you from Adam, is the most extraordinary bit of interference.
Ands that's without mentioning that Pickles and his mates don't seem to factor in that some people actually work at night and sleep by day.
