New Coir posters - Admission of guilt on €1.84 claim?

[McDave]

COIR have new posters up around Dublin city centre. Tagged "Kiss your freedom goodbye", the posters are pink and heart-shaped, with slogans like "The eu loves low wages" and "The eu loves control" (see new "Round 2" posters at http://www.coircampaign.org/index.ph...uments/posters).

Are COIR finally admitting they were badly wrong with their "€1.84?" posters? Is changing tack in mid-stream a sign of panic? In this regard, you might be interested to read Tommy O'Brien's excellent post on the typical roll-out of a campaign, especially on the importance of sticking to your original message: http://www.politics.ie/2065175-post162.html.

Is there any pictures of them? I'd like to see them if you have a link or anything, please.

COIR love lies. Vote YES

All politicians lie. So using the "OMG YOU LIE SO WE SHOULD VOTE AGAINST YOU" argument is quite poor.

Granted, they aren't politicians - but policitians calling them out on lying is highly hypocritical.

From the link you posted:

The second in Cóir's series of posters go up this weekend. Different in appearance and concept from the average political poster, they reinforce earlier messages as well as targeting some new ones. A key message is repeated: the Lisbon Treaty will assist the EU Court to drive down wages and undermine the right to earn even the minimum wage.

How is that changing the message they originally conveyed?

No. A No vote will mean higher borrowing costs for the state which will translate into a slower recovery and fewer jobs.

Wow.

Although I didn't particularly like some of the original posters, this next set of posters are absolutely brilliant.

Please don't attempt to brand me as a simple no follower who loves all the No posters now - I've attacked Coir posters and the lies from both sides several times. I honestly believe these posters will do a LOT better than the last set.
