Blue Wine is set to hit European markets and expected to be on shelves within the next two months in the UK. GIK has been created in collaboration with the University of the Basque Country and Azti Tecnalia and is expected to be a big hit in the UK, where drinkers prefer sweeter styles of wine. The wine is created using a blend of red and white grapes predominantly sourced from vineyards in La Rioja, Zaragoza, Leon and Castilla-La Mancha, and is hued...
By Bill E. Lytton We are entering a period of unprecedented, but entirely predictable, political and economic volatility. The next major test for politicians and campaigners in post-Brexit Britain is how to handle promises they made repeatedly throughout the referendum. Already, Boris Johnson and Michael Gove - as seen in their speeches at Vote Leave HQ - are trying to distance themselves from the more tarnishing elements of the Leave campaign. On reneged promises, it has also become clear - though...
Still suffering from the EU referendum earthquake, the wheels may be coming off the UK already. Scotland gave a resounding 'No' to the Eurosceptic lobby setting the scene for another independence vote. Northern Ireland chose to remain despite the DUP's self-serving europhobia. Voters in both countries can rightly claim they've been unwillingly pulled in the wrong direction. More than anyone else, Londoners must feel their destiny is now out of their hands. Despite huge support for Remain across the city,...
Review by Michael McNulty John Hillcoat’s newest film, Triple 9 is a tense corrupt cop, crime thriller, with a star lineup that’s hard to rival. Sure, the plot is shakier than the camerawork on Cloverfield, packed with genre clichés, predictable plot points, and one of Kate Winslet’s most questionable performances ever, and maybe Hillcoat’s nihilistic commentary on the disintegration of trust, the pervasiveness of violence and America’s disenchantment is flat. But, put all that to one side and Triple 9...
Review by Leslie Byron Pitt/@Afrofilmviewer Burr Steers’ (Igby Goes Down) Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, much like a particular brand of wood varnish, delivers exactly what is said on the tin. This film is based on Jane Austen’s seminal novel and features the undead. A drab way to start this review. Then again, this film, despite its unique take on a 19th-century critique on status, romance and manners, doesn’t really extract as much humour and horror as it could. Much...
By Joe Mellor. Deputy Editor So the Leave campaign got in their battle bus and drove around the country with a massive lie on the side of the bus about the NHS. Let's be honest, did you really fall for that? Actually don't answer that, seems MILLIONS did. Anyway, it is ok as the Vote Leave team had a plan in place for when we left the EU? It is all going to be ok then. Well no, no it...
It seems like logo redesign is very popular in 2016, especially for some of the world’s biggest and most popular brands. Rebranding can often negatively affect a product, especially if their consumers have grown to love their logo design. But change can also be a good thing and it seems like brands are willing to modernise their look for the digital age, that is 2016. Let’s have a look at a variety of businesses who have amped up their logo...
John Brown looks at why being devoted to a single strategy or channel is the wrong approach... If you remove politicians and footballers, humans have a pretty staggering tendency to bond for life. We’re one of only a handful of mammal species that pair and commit. This innate loyalty is pretty useful in many ways. But, when it comes to marketing, we need to up the promiscuity levels. I hold my hands up right now and say I am not...
By Grant Bailey (@GrantDBailey) Brassy? Bolshy? Bricking it? However the England Euro team are feeling today ahead of their game against Iceland, it looks like Roy Hodgson is putting his strongest team forward to push us through to the quarters. Judging by our less-than-stellar performance against Slovakia last week, it's clear that the right team chemistry can make or break a match, just as the right combo of employees can make or break an office. A recent study into office...
