To this end, they put out an animated Christmas commercial to make these intentions clear and to ask people to take their plight into consideration

But the ad came under the eye of advertising watchdog authority Clearcast, who stated the ad breached the 2003 communications act which states ads should not be politically-motivated.

Iceland uploaded the advert online in response
