Does their current TV advert mean that it is compulsory that you are some sort of LGBTQ+ type to fly with them?

Pathetic isn't it?

 


Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

I find it jarring if there's an advert with only white people of biological gender and no disabilities in it now.

I remember getting berated by a now banned idiot on here when I observed the ridiculous amount of non Whites in adverts, and that was before it had gone completely bonkers like it is now.

Companies are obviously preparing for Britain's near future.

I suppose the advert is a bit like "It ain't half hot mum" in many ways.

I'm offended, a completely unrealistic portrait of the UK today and how the airlines would like to imagine it.

C'mon walking through a half empty airport, no queues at security, have any of these advertising idiots flown lately?

It does appear that every couple is now mixed race.
Strange considering only 1 in 7 of the population is non white.

Kinda amazed some #Metoo shenanigans haven't appeared about this dropkick.
Does anyone remember all the furore a couple of pandemic years ago when Branson went cap in hand to HMG for something like a 850M tax payers hand out?
Well guess what's just opening it's doors on Broadway? What a coincedence a brand spanking new 850M Virgin Hotel...

I agree, there are no non mixed race marriages so why should they be reflected in advertising. What you don't see in the newer ads is a reflection of all the mixed marriages between white people and non Afro Caribbean partners.Where are all the Indians, pakistanis etc etc or there is a hidden agenda to falsely imply there are certain groups who do not encourage or allow marriages outside their group and god forbid even condone murder of those that do.

Back to the Virgin ad, it is up to them what they think will work, in this case it does nothing to make me think Virgin is a better safer airline.

Good to see at the end the rumours of Princes's death were false.

 


Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.
