Market vs Meerkat

Via Guido Fawkes comes an article in the Grauniad which considers that the 'compare the market' advert on television is racist - link to the Grauniad article within Guido's post.

To complain about what is quite a clever advertisement based on the similarity of the words 'market' and 'meerkat' and to twist this into a racist argument is just ridiculous to say the least.

To Mr. Jones one has to say: If you don't like it, don't watch it and to his girlfriend, who is Ukranian, one can go further and say: if it is that offensive to you then go back to the Ukraine!
