The first year of the Gordon Brown's term as Prime Minister coincided with a 16% rise in the cost of Government advertising, marketing and publicity. Government advertising attracted particular controversy in 2009, when the Home Office, according to a Select Committee on Communications report, "abused the marketing funds by funding newspapers [sic.] advertisements on police during the local elections “purdah” period, mirroring the Labour Party’s own campaigning."[1]
The report said there had also been an historic trend of COI advertising strangely rising just before an expected general election.[2]
