Charles Saaaatchi is a colossal wanker. My dad's friend worked for him.
Bully, vile, arsehole shit.

This may well be true but his gallery on the King's Road is very good. And free. And I'm not all that keen on much modern art.

Yes, Saatchi could be the poster boy for cognitive dissonance - Successful Tory Election Posters vs. Free Art.

I think that poster was actually Maurice not Charles, but I could be wrong.

Wasn't it a Saatchi & Saatchi production? The Labour Isn't Working one. Never mind, I don't like the look of him and the way he behaves and that's enough for me - y'see, Tories? It cuts both ways.

It was indeed, but Maurice is the Tory cheerleader, Charles is apparently not all that politically open, and IIRC wasn't all that keen on taking the account in the first place, as taking political sides could have hindered future business. I could, however, be making all of this up, but I think I saw a BBC documentary that said as much.
