https://www.sportengland.org/our-work/equality-diversity/women/this-girl-can/k is this new ad about, thats is 3 minutes of mildly jiggly women running, swimming and dancing? All it says at the end is "this girl can"? Can what? Can fk right of my tv with your pointless and annoying ad, that's whatI find that advert exceptionally patronising (at least as a bloke)- probably because several female friends play rugby.
'You go girl - you can!' - Well of course she fking can, why does it need an ad campaign? "You know those funny dangly things sticking out of each hip - well they can be used for something other than putting a shoe on the end of! I bet you didn't know that, eh?"
The worst bit though - the 'crowning turd in the water pipe' as Stephen Fry would put it, is the bit in the middle where the line reads 'I kick balls - deal with it'.
This implies:
1). Men are bowled over by the concept of a woman playing football and somehow struggle to cope with the concept (we aren't and we don't)
2). Football playing women are some sort of feminist pioneer - like a modern Emiline Pankhurst (you're not)
and
3). It manages to try and create pointless friction due to some pointless, lazy ad person resorting to lazy out of date gender stereotypes.
(Also any advert which goes with the 'nearly saying fk' tactic. See 'go fun yourself or' or 'book, yeah, you got it booking right'.
Were your adverts written by 13 year olds whose idea of edgy humour is nearly swearing. Grown the book up.

There is a similar Scottish Government backed scheme to promote healthy eating amongst us Scots on the tele at the moment.
The two adverts I have seen have filled me with the useful fact that, you can always freeze a meal and have it another day.

and not to go food shopping when your hungry to avoid buying ste.

I mean fk me, what think tank sat around and thought we need to tell people that they can freeze or reuse food that they seem to be flinging in the fking bin because they are too thick to use their fking fridge freezer and an old ice cream tub.
Id like to see the figures that it cost, and sit them down and ask each and everyone how the fk they landed the easiest job in the world.
I'd then send them off to be shot.

But on a plus point, the 'Booking.com' ad has been complained about and in the process of removing it
"Important: Booking.com complaints
We have received a significant volume of complaints about a cinema and TV ad for the travel website, Booking.com. Complainants in general object that the ad is offensive and unsuitable to be seen by children, because they consider the repetition of “booking” suggests a swear word.
