Although I'm loving the "Punish the makers" strapline to the ad - every time I see it I think "whaddya think the Nestle boycott's about, you cunts?"

Well the truth is we ask because a) we don't want to upset or alienate folks b) though we are a business and hoping to be a profitable one, we also genuinely wish to be an "ethical" business and sometimes we are genuinely in two minds about advertisers. A good debate often clarifies both of these issues for us as it has in the past with formula milk.

Currently we don't allow ads for formula milk, Nestle, Macdonalds, plastic surgery types, political parties, porn sites and a few red-top newspapers. If you think there's any we should add to that list let us know who and why.

Best,
MNHQ

What's a red-top newspaper?

MrsBadger · 24/04/2007 15:14

a tabloid whose name is often printed in red at the top of the front page eg Sun, Mirror.
