I'm prepared to be corrected, but I'm fairly sure that last night I saw a Vodafone advert, with husband, wife & three kids, all of whom were white.

Where is the outrage? or the Charlie-Hebdo-type attack on Vodafone's head office?

Perhaps some companies might care to note this in their future adverts. Especially you, IKEA, with your all-black-people ads, and your all-white staff as shown in a recent documentary.
You did indeed see it.

However, points deducted for blithely writing husband and wife. It's usually husband and husband these days.

Sunlife - Hello Bob i just intercepted your post again and accidentally opened it. Ah yes Jean, thanks, i got 50k of life cover for 3p a week and i got a free axe, thankfully no medical. Jean knows this already and is coming back later to put Bob’s new axe to good use.

Lloyds TBS - By your side? Ha, about 50 miles away if they keep closing their branches.

Not forgetting - He Cinched buying his new mota!

Sunlife: Is it “Junedad” or “Jeandad”...either way, I think that she is stalking him & after something else.
Then he meets that woman in a garden centre... what an exciting life he leads
( But does June / Jean know...that axe may come in handy.)

Definitely June
Both of you tread carefully
Jean is a sort of special interest for me and I won't have anything unpleasant said about this alluring and well turned out woman
My ideal advert would be for her and the beautiful crematorium dreamboat woman to be in the same advert

It's June, and she certainly looks alluring in this advert.

Tui Blue have made the exact same cock-up. An advert packed full of white, mixed sex couples...................its disgusting having such a blatant hetero-sexual message forced upon you.

You omitted Halifax "It's a people thing" . What the F*** does that mean? I suppose they are telling robots not to apply for a mortgage!

In general, any advert that shows how stupid or lazy society has become... too many to list. irked
But the latest offerings;

Flash mop / duster... How can you do a proper job without actually moving ANYTHING.

Deliveroo... ordering a few pints of forgotten milk to be delivered.

I see Nationwide have binned the puke inducing poetry ones and have now moved on to irritating couples discussing why they can’t afford a house. Obviously aimed at a certain demographic due to the woman with a massive fat arse in spray on red trousers.

It would seem Julia Lopez, who is creative industries minister and the Conservative MP for Hornchurch and Upminster, hasn't got the message.

"Advertising is a jewel in the crown of the UK’s creative industries, she claims". Maybe a visit to this forum subject would get her feet back on the ground

Funny how the planet is dying but that getting your every whim delivered whenever it occurs to you (probably whilst complaining you are always broke) gets a free pass.

Just when you think Nationwide can't get any worse they never fail to deliver! The latest motor mouth woman holding a baby with drippy partner grunting is a peach!!!

I suppose that if you don’t live near a shop, garage or have decent neighbours... it would come in handy. scratchchin
( Free advice: Get a few cartons of long life on the next shop)

What the giddy hell is the new fitbit advert with some bloke dancing around in his dressing down and boxers?



Is this supposed to be a Marc Rebillet ripoff? or same bloke?

Next door neighbour this Saturday had 5 deliveries, from 3 different scooter riders & 2 cars, all within 20 minutes of each other. Each one appeared to be delivering 1 or 2 small items / takeaway from different retailers. Not sure how that's in any way helping the planet but hey ho rolleyes

Only reason i know this as every single one of the fkers either dumped their transport at the bottom of my drive or right next to / within touching distance of the passenger side of my car as it was clearly easier to leave it there for a quicker exit from the road, then going the extra few metres and stopping outside the house they're delivering to banghead
