..to think that this is the worst advertising campaign in the history of the world?

Firstly, it doesn't even make sense. KFC isn't a chicken, it's a chicken shop. How can you 'find a bigger chicken' than KFC, a SHOP that sells normal sized chicken? They haven't purchased the rights to use the pre-photoshopped image (according to the photographer commenting on the tweet), and surely KFC are within their rights to sue?

They've actually sent boxes of chicken to journalists. When the country is in absolute turmoil. Who in their right mind would sign this off?

Meh

Yeah, serious misstep there on behalf of whoever signed that off. It doesn’t make any sense.

Yes a really rubbish advert

they've sent boxes of KFC to journalists???
it smacks of someone who isn't quite sure what KFC is and has never eaten it, like trying to be down with the plebs but getting it wrong. Even people who eat KFC, I imagine, will think this is pathetic given the crisis we are in.

God, this country is fucking embarrassing.

You gotta love KFC's answer though😁

It's clucking ridiculous. Honestly if I were the photographer i'd be spitting feathers. I supposed they had to resort to twitter because talk is cheap, and they thought this would be more eggciting.

What a shameful excuse for the party in government.
Don’t understand KFC’s reply though?

Not even boxes of KFC. Just this heap of embarrassment. Lots of people mentioning the increase in food bank usage/ child poverty, and the Tories thinking this is appropriate. Not that it would be anything but cringeworthy even if nobody in the country were going hungry.

Yes, the KFC social media manager deserves a raise. The Conservative SMM deserves a P45.

What was KFC's reply?

I think the worst campaign at the moment is the Dove beauty ‘diversity’ idents running on Sky Witness - where all the women featured seem to be white, slim, similar age and work in TV/media.

What diversity are they talking about?!

It's fucking embarrassing. Literally nobody in the country knows what's going on and the government are doing this!

I don't get the KFC reply though, please someone explain? LBC?

Youve clearly forgotten about gilettes toxic masculinity and me too campaigns

It's a dig at the chicken shop knife campaign

The KFC response is referencing LBC the London talk radio station, lots of angry political chat. www.lbc.co.uk/

Fair play to KFC, good response

What does the KFC reply mean please?

Nice comeback though

Try again

I don't get the KFC reply though, please someone explain? LBC?

LBC are pretty relevant in Brexit news atm, having been the radio station which hosted JRMs attack on a Doctor discussing no-deal impact on healthcare. I assume KFC are basically saying, why the fuck are you mentioning (@ing) us in your tweets. We are a fast food company, not a political commentator.

Of course, there are other terrible advertising campaigns. But these are people who are supposed to be running the country. And they're acting like 12 year old trolls. Or at a push, contestants from the first week of The Apprentice.

The worst campaign I've seen, recently, is all the creepy child mannekins wearing animal masks in M&S. I can't walk past them fast enough.

This is up there, though.

Wankers

Right up there.

It's farcical.

They're supposed to be sorting the country out, not playing childish, immature jokes.

Goodness, so embarrassing. Who on earth signed that off? The country is split, people are understandingly worried and THIS is what our chosen government tweet at such a time? Horrendous.

Well done to KFC Twitter on the way they handled this.

KFC are rocking it though. I don't eat it any more. May be time to restart.
