I think it's a great advert, tells the story in a very clear way, without any preaching stats etc. Maybe it will be infamous because it has been banned and still get the message across.

 

Ps I don't like the Christmas adverts appearing before Armistice Day. Still plenty of time to sell sell sell. That's got something to do with this generally the only message sent out is consume consume consume 😤😢

Wouldn't it be good, if EVERY year, we made no mention of Christmas, shops didn't display Christmas goods, or people buy and wrap presents, until after Remembrance Day!

I haven't watched the Iceland advert yet, but perhaps it will actually get more notice just because it's been banned - after all how many people knew that Iceland were the first supermarket to remove palm oil from all their own brands.  Support them by 'sharing' their advert so more people can get to see it (and perhaps change your shopping habits to Iceland - who do have some really good things on sale).

The best way to get something talked about is to get it banned , so maybe Iceland knew what they were doing !!!

Very clever marketing on Iceland's behalf to put together (with Greenpeace) an advert which is very topical (not sure about Christmas though?) Now it's been banned, it will have at least double the impact than previously expected.

The Iceland advert is a good one, a much better advert than the overtly  "Politically Correct"   male twerking Money Supermarket advert..
