Meet the Rt Hon Peter Perfect MP, Secretary of State for Health

Here is the new Hands Off Our Packs campaign video.

Devised by my colleagues Angela Harbutt and Amul Pandya, it was directed by Carlos Boellinger, a filmmaker from Brighton, and his company Visual Dreams Production.

Plain Packaging – No Minister! features a conversation between a fictional health minister and his chief civil servant. It also includes a spoof “partly political broadcast” featuring the minister, the Rt Hon Peter Perfect MP.

The closing date for submissions to the public consultation on plain packaging is July 10. If you haven't signed the Hands Off Our Packs petition please do it today and encourage friends and family to do so too.

Great video, sad but true the way the people are being so blatently bamboozled with government double speak.
More videos like this please.
I think the only way left for us to combat spin at this stage of the game is through satire and laughter.
Wouldnt it be a hoot when, next time an Anti starts up the spin about saving us from ourselves that everyone roared with laughter.
I dont think they could cope with that.
