Got this sent through to me in the post:

The Postcode Lottery is basically a lottery where you sign up and if your postcode is chosen then everyone on your street who has signed up gets a share of the winnings. Whatever.

The thing that caused me to lose all faith in the organisation was the set of celebrity endorsements that they had on the back of the envelope. Lorraine Kelly and Chris Packham I am sure they probably could get to endorse the Postcode Lottery. It’s just that sort of level of thing. I could maybe believe that they could have got Sir Richard Branson to endorse it if they struck up some deal with him and he happened to be the second cousin twice removed of the owner of the lottery. However with Tony Blair, they were pushing it and former US President Bill Clinton?

Going to go out on a limb here and gamble that FORMER US PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON DOES NOT ENDORSE THE POSTCODE LOTTERY. To be honest I would be amazed if he had heard of it.

So the people at the People’s Postcode lottery seem to have discredited themselves so much that now I question if they could even get an endorsement from Lorraine Kelly. A true lesson in how things backfire when you lie.
