Topic: Get Ready For Brexit Campaign - Targetting Marginals?

Was talking to someone at work recently and she asked me how much money did they think they were spending on the Get Ready for Brexit campaign because she was being bombarded with ads for it both digitally and in the real world. I was under the impression it hadn't kicked off because I hadn't seen a single one. As we discussed it further it occurred to us that one of us lived in a marginal constituency and one didn't and it was the former was getting all the ads.

It is apparently the largest public sector ad campaign ever and has been criticised for normalising the idea of Brexit with over £100 million being spent. However, it would be one of the largest thefts ever of public funds if the campaign was being subverted for electoral gain with spending being focused on Conservative target seats.

We can however discount this as our Prime Minister has a reputation for impeccable integrity and his chief of staff has never played fast and loose with campaign finance rules. I am sorry for even suggesting the possibility.
