I love the JL ad. Electric Dreams is one of my most favourite songs.

Woke diversity from John Lewis.

The only white face is an alien. What sort of message is that?

And aside from that, how is it remotely xmassy?

What really sad times we live in.

You watch the very expensive and equally diverse Sports Direct ad instead.

Oh, stuff your wokeness up yer jacksie.

There won't be snow in Eng-er-land this Christmas time
The greatest gift they'll get this year is sleaze...

While public spending grows
And cash for questions flow

It's Christmas time in Westminster all year...

I avoid all the Christmas ads by not actually watching TV, it's quite liberating and spending more time cooking is popular with the family.

I hadn't seen adverts for ages until I got into YouTube which is full of the things. Ugh.

Here's to you, trying to keep the heating on
Here's to them, being paid for lobbying

Do you know it's Christmas time all year...

[Gibbon]

Oh, stuff your wokeness up yer jacksie.

You should commission a lapel badge with that on, I would buy some!

A FOLLOW-UP to the new John Lewis ad will show a trusting young boy screaming as millions of invasive alien eggs hatch from his body on Christmas Day.

The ad will be shown on Christmas morning, during Santa Claus The Movie, featuring the same boy who previously made an alien friend rushing down to open his presents.

When he spies a special present wrapped in silver foil he tears it open to find an extraterrestrial device, which starts pulsing strangely as he suddenly finds himself suffering agonising abdominal pain.

Advertising executive Jules Cook continued: “The rest of his family back away, terrified, as he jerks and thrashes before bursting open to shower the room in gore and a million star-shaped alien babies.

“We pan out to reveal this is happening in every home in the country and the world, and the newly-hatched otherworldly visitors are consuming humans for their food and painting huge bloody stars across our continents.

“It’s all done to a minor-key acoustic cover of Evisceration Plague by Cannibal Corpse. Should really bring footfall to John Lewis.”

Mum-of-four Jo Kramer said: “Well I don’t care, I think it’s heartwarming.”

Which kinda proves that using aliens to try avoid any race/gender/whatever wokeness can still end badly.

If it's the boy from the last JL ad, being exploded by a teeming swarm of alien babies seems good. Will their insurance cover the clean-up of his spattered organs?
