Who's got it?<br /><br />Pity it's illegal to advertise tobacco. It would be great to see a strip of cigarette ads down the side. I wonder if it's possible to reproduce old tobacco adverts as "items of historical interest"? Would it, for example, also be illegal to reproduce a photo a Times Square in New York in 1960 in which there were a few prominent billboards advertising tobacco?<br /><br />Just wondering...idlexhttp://someplace.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2206739907723081582.post-70785224932408437972009-04-18T07:08:00.000+01:002009-04-18T07:08:00.000+01:00Just for a moment think of the jobs the Government...Just for a moment think of the jobs the Government have created/saved.<br />We have an enormous and expensive smoking cessation empire bought and paid for by the taxpayer. <br />Pharmaceutical companies can maintain employment levels through the direct promotion of their ineffective products by Government advertising.<br />Many of us can suffer immediate dismissal for failure in our jobs but these people can work at an acceptable 98% failure rate and be commended!!! <br />By sucking up to the Government and protecting their 'truths' the BBC can be sure of funding and retaining jobs. The ITV companies may be having a tough time but by accepting Government as its second highest advertiser they must toe-the-line to retain jobs.<br /><br />We have whistleblowers losing their jobs when they reveal uncomfortable truth so surely the alternative is secure employment by supporting Government lies and misinformation.<br />So-called Charity workers with the single task of creating a so-called sound basis for Government wishes are solely dependent upon Government funding for continued employment.<br /><br />I'm sure you can name many more propaganda based secondary industries and each one of these is an insult to those citizens whose needs, wishes and efforts are ignored by 'those who know best'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2206739907723081582.post-69975045723239054002009-04-17T23:11:00.000+01:002009-04-17T23:11:00.000+01:00Well said Colin.

All too often the politicains and media just look at the headline closure figures - what about the secondary industries that have been affected as well?<br /><br />They definitely can't see longer than their nose. <br /><br />Good job you can and millions of others to remind them.helend498https://www.blogger.com/profile/00089217832597972622noreply@blogger.com
