Founded in 1962, the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) was Tbuilt on the principle of keeping ads legal, decent, honest and truthful, providing scrutiny to dubious claims made by brands. In recent years, however, the ASA has seen its jurisdiction expand. In 2004, the regulator added TV and radio to its roster of non-broadcast mediums. New online advertising formats have further added to its workload, and the regulator has now been left to navigate the murky waters of sponsored social media posts. But this is not the only development in the ASA’s work. No longer restricted to anodyne rulings on technical infractions, the watchdog is beginning to strike the gavel on matters of social responsibility. In a particularly notorious case in 2015, the ASA received hundreds of complaints that a weight- PRIME Minister Boris Johnson yesterday visited a prison in Leeds as he continued his push for a crackdown on crime, further fuelling speculation the Tory leader is on an election footing. Johnson appeared unsettled after being shown a body scan image loss ad featuring a bikini-clad model amounted to of a prisoner who tried to smuggle contraband into jail using a Kinder Egg hidden inside his body, normally used to hold toys. body-shaming. The regulator deemed that the billboard ad did not objectify women. In the latest iteration of this change of direction, the ASA has today handed down its first ad bans under new rules against harmful gender stereotypes. The regulator ruled that campaigns by Mondelez and Volkswagen portrayed men and women in stereotypical gender roles in a way that could be deemed offensive. The new measures are well- Wage growth highest in intentioned. An ASA review into advertising showed that harmful stereotypes can have a significant impact on both children and adults, which in turn can contribute to gender inequality. Reinforcing tired cliches in advertising is neither clever nor funny. However, these first rulings lay bare the 11 years despite GDP dip tightrope that the ASA must now tread.

  • 2018-19 Community Engagement Statement
    2018-19 Annual Community Engagement Statement Leeds College of Building is the only FE College specialising in Construction and the Built Environment in the UK. Since 1994 the College has experienced significant growth up to 2007 when the overall turnover reached £19.2m. Since then and in line with the 2008 recession the College’s income dropped but has since recovered and is now over £18m. Over this period the College acquired Achieve Through Learning Ltd (ATL), a private training provider in South Yorkshire, and has embarked on significant new builds at Hunslet Lane in Leeds. The College operates as a ‘Group Structure’ with LCB, LCB Enterprises Ltd and ATL Ltd forming the Group members. Section 4 of the English Colleges Code of Good Practice covers: 4. The governing board will ensure that the college is responsive to the relevant labour market by adopting a range of strategies for engaging with employers and other stakeholders that will support students progressing to relevant further study and/or successful employment. The Code goes on to state that the college should have systems in place that facilitates engagement with them (local and business communities) regularly, proactively and effectively so that it can identify and prioritise their present and future needs for education and training, and discuss how they can best be met. These relationships need to be two way. The Code also states that the board should publish on the college website at least annually an account of the college's engagement with the main communities that it serves; the progress made towards meeting their needs for education and training; and how it aims to meet their future needs.

  • Spotlight on Graham Wagg
    Shropshire County Cricket Club Newsletter www.shropshireccc.co.uk MAY 2021 Sam Whitney Director of Cricket John Abrahams looks ahead to the 2021 season As we approach the start of our National Counties Cricket Association campaign, it’s an exciting time with much to look forward to. We have played a number of 50-over friendlies over the last month, invaluable in terms of our preparations ahead of our opening NCCA Trophy group game against Northumberland at Oswestry on May 30. The hope for this season is that the players will improve and grow as cricketers and people. We want them to prove to be challenging opponents, represent the county, their clubs and families with pride and conviction, and enjoy the experience. Compared to the Shropshire team that I played in after joining the county as a player in 1989, this is a younger and less experienced group of players. What they do have is ability and skills that will make the county team competitive in the matches that we play. It is an exciting prospect to hopefully put an infrastructure and processes in place that will see them develop and be successful for Shropshire for a long time. We have added the experience of Graham Wagg to the squad. Engaging a professional was challenging after Simon Kerrigan secured a return to the first-class game with Northamptonshire. Graham was always our first choice and we were delighted to be able to finalise a deal to secure his services. Shropshire captaincy to be Graham has contributed already in the friendlies with his performances with bat and ball, and he is already affecting the environment with the standards shared this season that he sets, his competitive outlook and the help and advice he is giving players.
