Hursty I would say as far as UK promotion, it’s a drop of piss in the ocean, and thats coming from a marketing background, the returns from it will be tiny. But yeah, in terms of UK budget, it is also tiny, so why not do it… his timing and insight are just non existent.

LT42 Lol probably, Air Force 1 is quite a status symbol for the States, although they have at least 2 so difficult to work out which one the VIPs are on.

Air Force 2 is Pence’s bus as far as I know

LT42 Boris is a total clown and this smacks of an attempt to divert focus from something other that doesn’t reflect well on the government (take your pick).

However, most countries do it (uniform national branding) so I don’t see why the UK should be averse to it.

In fact, you already saw these posters all over Beijing last year (the wanky term ‘Britain is GREAT!’

    Something they’ve not mentioned though is the increased costs in fuel of an all-over red paint or vinyl job. Apparently this makes the plane heavier and considerably less fuel efficient.

    Which is why airlines have traditionally gone for a livery with half a paint job and the rest left unpainted.

    Why don’t we just get the UK sponsored by Ethiad of something - quids in!

    bosstrabs I know they exist, Dave, I was laughing at the thought of promoting the current UK brand. What is that brand currently? Like something you’d see on a filthy pallet down the back of Aldi.

      LT42 photos of Churchill, bulldogs, tea and crumpets, the Queen etc. The usual stuff I would imagine. What an embarrassment of riches our GREAT BRITAIN is.
