Quite fun an all, but parodies of this poster have been done to death. Next up there'll no doubt be a YouTube clip of that scene in Downfall with some hilarious subtitling doing the rounds.

Really hope to see some original guerilla stuff over the coming weeks, though the recent Tory billboard attacks were pretty funny.

I don't like these posters and the messages they stand for. These people will always be highly controversial, I realise that, but these posters are unfair. Thats whats wrong with our world - people are too quick to criticize, and say negative things about each other. In the same way I disagree with the way politicians talk about 'They said this, and they said that' and 'The reason we're in this mess is because of them' - can't people talk about what they want to do and how they can change things, rather than b*tch about other people? How about a positive guerilla campaign?

On another note, I guess I've just fallen for the whole point of guerilla marketing - "Make your campaign so shocking, funny, unique, outrageous, clever, or creative that people can’t stop talking about it. Back up your claims and make sure that whatever you’re advertising is worth all of that buzz." - http://weburbanist.com/2008/06/03/the-history-of-guerrilla-marketing/. Oh, (Ed) balls.

I was looking at the local political candidate mailers last night and came across this major Tory fail: using a stolen iStock photo to illustrate that their Hackney candidate will reduce crime.

peter: Not a chance!

James Nelson: This is hilarious!

Me: Gordon has never been this cool his life. If anything I bet this poster was a ploy by the Labour party to give their guy (I loathe to even mention his name!) so credibility.

Razor-My mans a quality geezer. A stand up guy. A man for the people. The conservatives want to take us back to a time of drastic cuts and penny pinching, like rashioning after the war.
Pull your-self together man, for goodness sake!
