Labor’s last push: Kid’s drawings of Abbott the dinosaur and Julia Gillard the angel
The final stage of Labor’s online election push features the drawings of an 11-year-old called Harrie.
The ad features a child’s drawing of a dinosaur to represent Liberal leader Tony Abbott and a smiling redheaded angel (or possibly fairy) to represent Labor’s Julia Gillard.
After the dinosaur digs up a capsule labelled Workchoices, the Gillard angel waves her magic wand to destory the dinosaur.
With TV ads now banned until after the election, Labor has also done a home page takeover of YouTube.
thats just a new low….
well done if thats what they were after.
Are you fucking serious
That is possibly the most ridiculous thing I’ve seen in all my life.
God help us all
Matches the maturity of the people running each of the campaigns. Atrocious all round.
Just made my mind up based on that… My dear God a number of senior ALP people would have had to approve this piece of shit. And you want us to trust you with running the country ??
That is a ridiculous ad! Who are they trying to appeal to? Under 18s don’t vote remember!?
Smart kid, must have read “Battle lines”.
How pathetic – I wish they had of run this earlier. Ether a case of child abuse or maybe Harrie is actually a 58 year old Labor power broker who thought this might work. I also thought the “poof” effect would have been a good way for Julia the Angel (or is that Julie with an Angle?) to talk about gay marriage.
Sign that kid. CD for some agency for sure!
That is worse than cancer, the 2004 tsunami, World War 2 and Two and a Half Men combined.
Thanks to Labor’s creative agency after this Australia will have a new government and we can all drink to freedom.
DISGUSTING!
Has anyone else found that on the YouTube homepage right now the Labor ads are clicking through to doubleclick.com ?
I’m in IE… maybe major YouTube adserving #FAIL ?
Haters. Harrie can colour in better than any of you.
And the winner of the “Race to the Bottom” goes to Labour who came in a crayon’s length ahead of Liberal…
How is this any different to any of the other ad campaigns this election? If anything, it’s honestly at being childish is refreshing. Of course I wouldnt base my choice on this ad, but anyone who bases their decision on who they want to run the country from a single TV ad really shouldn’t be allowed a vote…
Maybe they can hire Harrie back to do a follow up ad for “stopping the boats”……….
This must be a joke.
Keely – you must be a joke.
Vote early. It’s the easiest way to avoid all this crap.
Hmmm. 244 views on Youtube. That covers the 243 kids at Harriet’s school and the numpty who thought up the idea
Keely,
Your an idiot and presumably a labor voter. If not a pom thats not allowed to vote here anyway. Go home.
I want some of that sprinkly shit to make this election disappear.
