At work.

Massive photographs have appeared. Along with phitographers leaflets.

  1. No idea how much they have paid for their photographs to grace our walls.
  1. No idea what said money will be spent on.
  1. Why?
  1. Uncomfortable with the ethics of being seen to be endorsing a specific company.
  1. They are the biggest, ugliest, horribly twee, unnaturally posed photogrsphs I have ever seen. So ugly they give me the heebie-jeebies.

We had a BNP party banner put up at work a while ago.

It was taken down VERY quickly after my colleague threatened to do unmentionable things to it and the people who put it up Shock

I'd have had to set fire to the BNP banner.

It's a disciplinary offence to use a pen with Cow &Gate written on it but it is fine to advertise a vastly expensive and tasteless photographer.

Shock

YANBU though, especially the babies on their fronts thing! Go in early with a few sharpies of different colours one morning and make them more interesting?
