Video: Home Office must learn from 'Go Home' ads debacle The Home Office is facing further woe over its immigration policies after the advertising watchdog launched a fresh investigation into its controversial "Go Home" ad vans. The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) said it had received 60 complaints about the mobile billboards including concerns the ads were "reminiscent of slogans used by racist groups to attack immigrants in the past." The ASA probe is in addition to another investigation by the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) into a wave of immigration spot checks across the country. Ads warning overstaying migrants to "Go home, or you'll be picked up and deported" appeared last month in six London boroughs. Migrants' rights groups, Labour politicians and unions reacted to the campaign with anger and disgust. Rachel Robinson, policy officer at human rights campaigners Liberty said the ads were a "cheap stunt" that had "really backfired."
