UK profile
⇒The Guardian is very subjective with their views rather than objective. 

 'Three Little Pigs' advert- 



・Looking from everyones point of view/ both sides of argument 
Wolf= government--- Pigs = Public, not affording a mortgage 
・Water boiling over= financial symbolism 
・ Worldwide problems presented - search for the truth 
・Binary of Individual VS Institution 

 It highlights the Guardians struggle to remain relevant in the evolution is of technology, hence why they use the twitter and hashtag formats as the primary form of how people are following and commenting on the story, as well as tablet applications.

 The campaigns use of the three little pigs could be seen as an extended metaphor, the pigs being the guardian, taking new measures (boiling the wolf/evolving/modernising) to stop their houses (company) collapsing.
