Australia Plays its Part in Referendum Poster War
The referendum poster war is well underway, with just a week remaining until Ireland is set to vote on the European Fiscal Compact treaty. We’ve noticed a bit of a trend going on, which involves “Yes” posters being hijacked for the “No” campaign. Specifically, those pointing to a “Working Ireland In Australia” have caught our attention, as seen in the photo above.
The most recent sighting was tweeted out this morning:

It seems the same sentiment is not just being touted on the referendum posters, but on Twitter as well:
