So I posted about government advertising a couple of weeks back?
Well, the Telegraph has started to notice that obscene amounts of money are being wasted.
Messages from the state were relayed to the population via television, radio, cinema, newspapers, magazines and billboards on more than 3.7 million occasions during 2008, according to new research by media analysts at The Nielsen Company.
Which, of course, is outrageous.
So what would we do?
The Conservatives … have set out plans to slash the government’s marketing budget by £250 million to help pay for a freeze in council tax
So next time the government accuses us of getting our priorities wrong, perhaps this is one thing to be flung in their faces….
