The Conservatives' astounding election posters have naturally attracted a good deal of graffiti. You can even play here at making your own Tory poster [via Crooked Timber]. But it seems now that the establishment is having a go. I saw this advert on the tube yesterday for a solicitors, parodying the posters on the grounds that their areas of expertise include immigration. Possibly the first political message in a long time not to insult my intelligence and it was a legal advert! Is it possible that amid all the dumbing down some of our political conversations are actually getting smarter? Anyway, it made me want to give them business because it gave me something to believe in (So much so that I made an idiot of myself taking a photo of an advert on a crowded tube).
