no fun for swiftcover

Interested to read that the ASA have given the Metallic K.O. to Swiftcover’s ‘Get a life’ car insurance ads featuring godfather of punk, Iggy Pop.

Whoever The Idiot was that said Blah Blah Blah to the clause in the insurers policies that stated driver cover was NOT available to drivers in the entertainment business was certainly a Naughty Little Doggie.

Swift cover have now been forced to Search and Destroy all the ad material. The creative director responsible has been told ‘Your Pretty Face Is Going to Hell’.

On the upside, Swiftcover have subsequently implemented some New Values which now allow the insuring of musicians. The Stooges in the product development department can now Soldier on and no-one is going to Beat ‘Em Up.
