I'm speechless. I've just followed a link to samizdata.net and seen this poster. How could they not know that this is going to press almost all the wrong buttons?

Is there a constituency out there that actually wants to live in a goldfish bowl?

[I'm tempted to ask if someone Down South could unpeel me one of these from a wall, but there's probably a CCTV camera pointed at each one]

It's not a hoax, there's one just outside my building on a bus shelter.

I still can't understand how some bright spark at a design agency decided that this was a good idea for a poster. Alternatively, how some wicked ironist at a design agency persuaded the customer that it was a good idea...

Honestly, if someone had made it up, I'd have thought it was going too far.
