Brown and Darling targeted by Tories in Jedward advert

THE Tories jumped on the Jedward bandwagon yesterday, branding Gordon Brown and Alistair Darling “Deadwood”.

A poster campaign features the faces of the Prime Minister and Chancellor imposed on a photograph of the X-Factor’s Dublin twins John and Edward Grimes.

The text of the advert, appearing on billboards across London, refers to the result of Sunday night’s public vote on the ITV show, stating: “Jedward are gone, but we’re still left with... Deadwood.”
