During the 2005 UK General Election and the 2006 local elections, we asked you to register a highly visible and damaging protest vote against Tony Blair, his style of government, his right-wing leanings, and his lies about the 'war' on terror and Iraq.

Find our tart-cards and WIN a digital camera!

OK, we're ready to go for the very first Backing Blair competition. This one is a special treat for anybody who lives or works in London.

Somehow, hundreds and hundreds of very special Backing Blair tart-cards have appeared in London's phone boxes.

All you have to do for a chance to win one these digital cameras is find one, take a picture, and then send it to us! We're giving away one camera at random and one for the first image correctly submitted via Flickr.

We won't show you what they look like (identifying them is half the fun) but 'backingblair.co.uk' does appear in fine print on the front of each card.

Instructions:

- Take a picture of what you suspect to be one of our special tart-cards.
- Prepare an email ready to send to photos@backingblair.co.uk
- Attach your photo (JPEGs only)
- Use the *subject* of the email to name your image
- Use the *body* of the email to include your email address - so we know who it's from - and details of where you found the card (along with any other - short - comments that you'd like to add).



Any entries sent in this way will appear at the following page if you want to keep track of developments:

Hint: You may want to focus your search on the following areas:
- Camden and Kentish Town
- Soho
- Waterloo & Embankment,
- Westminster & Victoria
- Angel, Euston, Kings Cross & Farringdon
- Brixton
- Shepherd's Bush

Get out there and get out there quickly:
1) They won't last long... especially in Soho
2) The first correct entry is guaranteed a prize (the second we will give to a randomly drawn entry)

Deadline for entries is 5pm, Friday 15th April.

(But if you miss out, don't sweat it... there are *plenty* of tart-cards left and there's another competition on the way shortly.)

Good luck!

UPDATE (11am Thursday 14th): It would appear that our tart-cards are being removed with some efficiency, so we've uploaded a range of images taken when we placed the cards, so you can see what they look like if you're not quick enough to catch them in action. Further day and night drops are planned for today and tomorrow, so the two digital cameras (still up for grabs) are there to be won. Keep an eye out.
