As we approach the general election and a time of (cautiously) renewed optimism, we thought we’d take a look back at this Tory government in the most reverent form of retrospective: Top Trump playing cards. Introducing “Top Tories”, the only card game where the characters would bet on themselves. But who exactly were these Tories? What did they get up to? And why is this the end of the road for them, as long as we all bother to vote? Compare and contrast their stats, as you relive all the lies, debauchery and scandal that have been more rife than ever before among the greedy, corrupt, power-obsessed oddities that make up the Conservative Party. Remind yourself which Tory got caught looking at porn in the Chamber of Parliament and then said he was searching for tractors, or which Tory claimed the lines of coke he was pictured with were actually his dandruff. We were too environmentally conscious (and stingy) to actually print these cards out, but feel free to do so at home, and play our interactive game with your nearest and dearest. It’s fun for all the family! Except your weird posh uncle, but you need to stop inviting him round anyway.

Announced last week, Reunite Families UK is going to court to fight a Conservative policy🧑⚖️ The policy ensures that international couples who don’t earn enough are kept apart until their wages rise - which was the subject of our ‘Cost of Loving’ campaign that launched earlier this year 💸 Made with BUILDHOLLYWOOD, we erected Valentine’s billboards featuring Rishi Sunak as Cupid that urged passers-by to check their ‘financial compatibility’ through our GOV Love Calculator 💕 The campaign was featured in over 185 articles and led to 45k+ signatures being added to the petition linked on our microsite that called for the earning bracket not to reach its maximum. Join us in supporting Reunite Families UK in their fight, for more info head to: https://lnkd.in/gGY3HpGq #CostofLoving #ReuniteFamilies #LoveKnowsNoBounds #TwistedLovesTory

In less than a month, we have the UK General Elections…and we cannot help but reminisce about when we tried to make a cat Prime Minister 😼 Our ‘Larry 4 Leader’ campaign ran during the Tory leadership race in 2022 and proved the flaws in the system by showing that more people would rally around a feline option than a human one. The campaign garnered over 70 international press features and 30k visits to the website (so many that it crashed). We managed to get over 51k interactions with #Larry4Leader, in part thanks to the popular @Number10Cat parody Twitter account, who reshared our billboard. While Larry might have taken a step back this Election, you certainly shouldn’t. Don’t forget to register to vote before 18th June on the Gov.uk website  🗳️✍️ #Generalelection #UKelections #impactdriven
