How much has been wasted on these ridiculous get ready for brexit adverts?

I've no idea, I've not seen any and the ones on the radio just float over me, ie, I've never listened to one.  Perhaps I will next time I hear one?

How much does it cost for a gadgie to speak into a microphone for 30 seconds odd and then for another gadgie - or even a quine - to push a button for it to be played over the airwaves?  As far as radio station charges are concerned, 5pm will be more expensive than 3am, I would imagine.

Then there are leaflets and the website.  Not seen any leaflets and I had a quick gander at the website.

So, to answer your question, not much, imo.

On the other hand, how completely and utterly irresponsible would it be not to have any "get ready" adverts?

Actually regarding different costs for different times, it's probably an all in package deal with broadcast times agreed in advance.  What do you reckon?

Not as much as the 'ridiculous' remain leaflets shoved through everyone's door I would think.

Not wasted because they've mixed them up with the Halloween ones. Corbyn is a skeleton, Swinson is showing a large set of pumpkins and the older Conservatives are handing out sweets to kids.

Not as much as the amount of Money that has be paid to MPs from all sides who have been sitting around talking complete
shyte for the past 3 years  ...Must run into billions

The ones that tell you nothing but to go to a website which harvests your data so you can be bombarded with Conservative and Brexit propaganda ads? Like £100m apparently.

What website's that, n88uk?  I haven't been getting any of these ads of which you speak

£2bn was the figure being quoted as being allocated to "prepare us" (LOL) for a No Deal Brexit when BJ came to power. 

However much the ads are costing, it's a drop in the ocean.

Well no deal planning is now over £8bn.

The one in the TV adverts it tells you to go saying go here basically.

They are still in the harvesting data stage so the targeted ad campaign hasn't started yet.

£100mill..could have saved thomas cook for 200mill...go to blah blah blah website..utter cack.

Not seen it, n88.  I'll look out for it.  Have you any evidence to back up your claims?

Might be an idea for WTFkenneth to do some research into the rotten to the core state of TC (no, not Top Cat) before he makes such ridiculous claims

Wasted on people's like sofee on universal credit ,but for productive members of society probably useful.

worra loadda bollix.

As Trilby says not too much however it could have went into schooling and helped the poster of the above learn proper English.

No doubt you will be aware that this includes a sum to aid businesses in the early days.
You have to laugh though. Labour not that long ago accusing the Government of not spending enough.

Why were the banks insisting on £250m then? A figure btw that couldn't even guarantee them getting to December let alone survive.

I like the adverts.  I imagine the blood pressure of remainers rising everytime they see/hear one.

Jobby must love them.

Heard this advertised on the radio earlier.  Is this it?
