No 10 Petition: Puppy drowning climate change advert.

Over the past week the Advertising Standards Authority has received 202 complaints about the campaign.

There is also No10 Petition (171 signatures and rising) to get this Government propaganda pulled:

We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Stop wasting taxpayers' money on climate change propaganda designed to frighten our children.

The government's latest TV advertisement on climate change is pure propaganda designed to frighten our children. Showing kids a puppy drowning in the centre of what looks like a British town is beyond fiction. It shows a weakness of argument for a government to have to resort to fear to bring the public "in line". This advertisement should be pulled immediately.

In the current economic climate, surely the government can find something better to spend six million pounds of taxpayers' money on.

No10 petition - Stop climate change TV ad propaganda designed to frighten our children.

From The Guardian:

The advertising regulator has received more than 200 complaints that the government's latest TV campaign on climate change is misleading.

The Department of Energy and Climate Change launched the £6m campaign, in which the government throws its weight behind the scientific evidence that climate change is man-made and will affect us all, last Friday.

The campaign, by ad agency AMV BBDO, marked a significant change in the government's marketing around its umbrella Act on CO2 initiative. The DECC said it has taken the stronger approach because research has shown that more than half of the UK public think climate change will have no effect on them.

However, over the past week the Advertising Standards Authority has received 202 complaints about the campaign (click on the drowning dog to watch the video).

No10 petition - Stop wasting taxpayer's money on climate change propaganda designed to frighten our children.

I've just submitted a No10 petition to "Stop wasting taxpayer's money on climate change propaganda designed to frighten our children.":

The government's latest TV advertisement on climate change is pure propaganda designed to frighten our children. Showing kids a puppy drowning in the centre of what looks like a British town is beyond fiction. It shows a weakness of argument for a government to have to resort to fear to bring the public "in line". This advertisement should be pulled immediately.

I'll provide a link if the petition is accepted.

David Cameron's petition for a General Election. Sign for change.

David Cameron has today launched a petition calling for an immediate General Election:

David Cameron: "I think the scale of the problems facing Britain today - the recession, the debt crisis, and above all the political crisis - all point in one direction. I think there is now only one way of sorting out the mess, and that is for Parliament to be dissolved and for a General Election to be held right away."

We are turning the campaign we had planned for the local and European elections into the campaign Britain now needs: a campaign for a General Election, to be held as soon as possible after the 4th June.

We want everyone - whether they support Labour, or the LibDems, or no party - to join in. Though the power of our collective pressure, we can force Gordon Brown to act.

No - there is no constitutional requirement for a General Election. Yes - this Labour Government could cling on for another year, with or without a new leader.

But we don't think the country wants to wait another year to pass judgment on their politicians, and on this Parliament. We don't think the country wants to wait another year before we start dealing seriously with the debt crisis and this economic crisis.

The political system in Britain today, from the Prime Minister downwards, is quite simply paralysed. And it is now abundantly clear that the country does not want to wait another year to give everyone in Westminster a simple message:

We want change - now get on with it.

PMQs - Gordon Brown to resign edition?

Looking forward to PMQs today. Will David Cameron really stick the boot in and mention the petition asking Gordon Brown to resign? It's been a bad week for Gordon and I think mentioning the petition could have him biting chunks out of the Dispatch Box.

Also the Conservative Blogosphere get-together (general piss-up) could be firming up to Sat 30th of May, meeting up at lunch time in St Stephen's Tavern in Westminster. What do you think? Leave a comment HERE or email me.

Petition: Gordon Brown to resign. 10,000 and climbing.
