Today it was claimed that the road is not even in Britain, but is based on this image taken by German photographer Alexander Burzik in Weimar



Labour shadow cabinet minister Lord Wood said on Twitter: 'There's something perfect about the Tories' 'road to a stronger economy' actually being a photo of the road to Weimar.'

This is a reference to the disastrous economic situation in 1930s Weimar Germany.

Yeah, the horizon's not even remotely the same. Hills and mountains don't just change.

Flip the image, and then Shop the road lines, hump, distant hill and add new background.

Weird. The middle distance rolling fields and much of the roadside foreground is identical/flipped and desaturated. But why would an advert Co. employee go to the trouble of Shopping the image when a real image of an actual mundane roadway in the UK can be had so easily in the first place? The only explanation I can think of is the .gov agency "artist" responsible is a lazy cheap unethical sh*t for brains .gov employee.

Or, the work was outsourced to the Turd World, and the "artist" hadn't a clue about reality in Britain. Britain, Germany, what's the difference?

Sure, very possible... but that would still require some lazy, cheap, even more unethical sh*t for brains advertizing agency bureaucrat to outsource the job.
