Absolutely poor taste, I think.

We need to start bullying Tui drinkers over their poor choice of beverage. Stuff tastes awful anyway.

Court of popular opinion would be bad enough. Nope, just a corporate socially-destructive liquid drug company’s pathetic attempt at stirring cheap controversy by suggesting it knows better than a jury. Nothing more cringe than moral judgements used as advertising by corporations who themselves are even more morally questionable.

Lets take out a billboard with live stats of alcohol related death count, and the percentage DB is responsible for. With the Tui logo alongside it.

Tui is owned by DB , which is owned by Heineken. They own and distribute alot of brands in NZ all of which are very easily avoided which I will continue to do.
