Hi Jake,

Can I suggest you take a look at this post on the History Month blog:
It will give you all the info you need to know about this ad, I think. Apart from the facts that the ASA will not investigate the complaint against the ad and that despite almost 14,000 signature on the petition for the ad to be broadcast again, Heinz have decided to shelve it for good (details about that, here)

Enjoy
Nicolas

Well spotted, Jake. It's the lead story in the current One80 (LGBT newspaper in Brighton).

We did a press release on it from the Green Party last week: http://www.lgbtgreens.org.uk/news/2008/heinzstanduptothehomophobes.aspx

The article ends with a call for a boycott, and the Heinz customer careline, 0800 528 5757 and an online petition at:
