We've launched our film competition, the clock starts now!

As part of our ongoing campaign to turn Volkswagen away from the Dark Side, we've launched a film competition. You've got two weeks to make fake VW adverts which turn its marketing on its head.

Another week, another push for reckless oil drilling by a UK company. This time it's BP, which wants to drill its deepest ever well in UK waters - a 1300 metre well - off the coast of North Uist.
