About this deal

Since 2018, Mark and Roxanne Hoyle – a duo known tediously as LadBaby – have ran five successful consecutive campaigns to get to the coveted Christmas number one spot on the UK chart. As someone under the age of 30 who uses the internet to find content more amusing than watching two aging millennials fake pranks and marital sagas, I had never heard of LadBaby until this 2018 venture that has caused me nothing but migraines for half a decade. Boy oh boy, do I now know of LadBaby. Don’t we all. But today, the end is officially nigh – Mark and Roxanne Hoyle have confirmed LadBaby will not be entering the ring for the Christmas number one this year – it’s over. Today is a great day for music, and here’s why this entire saga has always been nothing but dark sided, self serving and insidious.

There is also an option to donate the cash equivalent of their points to BBC Children in Need, FareShare and Ronald McDonald House Charities, to support the company’s commitment to funding and supporting youth work, alongside reducing food poverty and waste in the UK. LadBaby said: “Rox and I have had a great day surprising fans in Birmingham! Taking over the Drive-Thru was a blast, we loved surprising people with free Rewards points and some amazing merch! As people may know, Rox and I love to get involved in charity work where we can, so being able to visit Ronald McDonald House Birmingham was a real highlight – it’s great to see the work they’re doing for families with the launch of MyMcDonald’s Rewards. People can use their points to donate money to Ronald McDonald House Charities as well as McDonald’s other brilliant charity partners.”It’s taken its time, but it’s clear that the public are growing weary of LadBaby – when it comes to Christmas number one, we’ve BEEN over it. Why? Because despite the fact LadBaby has positioned this number one endeavour that has seen him beat The Beatles’ record for most Christmas number one singles as a noble act for charity, it has been entirely self serving and profile building. Because despite LadBaby’s apparently noble efforts, we are yet to see the end of foodbanks in this country. Perhaps LadBaby should have angled their campaigns more towards criticism of the government who caused the astronomical rise for a need for foodbanks rather than trying to convince the general public to buy their single. Dozens of people debated the wonky tree when a photo appeared on a Facebook group, with some calling it “embarrassing” and others praising the work of volunteers from the March Christmas lights committee.

As part of the tour, McDonald’s has given away a massive 5 million Rewards points to customers, crew and their charity partners including BBC Children in Need, FareShare and Ronald McDonald House Charities. At every location, customers were delighted by the Rewards Squad with points that they can add to their MyMcDonald’s Rewards account on the McDonald’s App and redeem against their favourite menu items or convert to a cash equivalent charity donation. They did it for charity, but they came out the winners – always. Now it’s time for the Christmas number one to have a gorgeous, new era. Perhaps it will go to something political, a la The Kunts. Perhaps it will go to a festive classic, like Mariah Carey or Wham. I’d be keen to see a renaissance for a newer Christmas classic, like Kelly Clarkson’s Underneath The Tree or Ariana’s Santa Tell Me. As long as I’m not hearing about sausage rolls, it will be a very merry Christmas indeed.

One resident, Kimberly Williams, told the BBC: “The Italians have got the leaning tower of Pisa; March has now got the leaning tree of Christmas.” Online firm, Manchester-based In the Style came to his aid and with its printers and manufacturers in the UK they have been able to turn it around within 48 hours. The town clerk at March town council, Sarah Lemmon, launched an excoriating takedown of the wonky tree’s detractors, criticising “the cancel culture mentality of a moaning minority” who, she argued, were “trying to kill the spirit of Christmas”. It refuses to submit to the cancel culture mentality of a moaning minority. I, personally, wish to thank everyone involved in organising and staging our spectacular Christmas display. The time, energy and effort involved is rarely recognised or valued. I feel very proud that our Christmas lights put March on the map and help to spread joy to so many.” They fell out of popularity in the 1990s – largely regarded as “gag gits”. In Bridget Jones’s Diary, they epitomised embarrassment.

Christmas jumpers – resplendent in their slew of tinsel, reindeer, sparkles and tassels – became popular in the UK during the 1980s when television presenters including Gyles Brandreth wore them on festive shows. To facilitate the rental of Lidl’s limited-edition jumpers made from upcycled textiles, the supermarket has partnered with By Rotation, a peer-to-peer rental app akin to Airbnb but for designer fashion, which is championed by figures such as Dame Helen Mirren, Chrissy Rutherford and Abisola Omole. Lydia Bolton, the slow fashion designer who created the three Lidl jumpers, said: “Designing and producing these jumpers inspired by Christmas icons from secondhand textiles has been super fun and creative, but knowing they are going to be rented and reworn also supports my mission of valuing and reusing textiles.” Earlier this week he put a call out to companies in a bid to produce a more affordable range of shirts with slogans such as Come on England and It's Coming Home. I am used to buying a Forest shirt but I wear that every match for a year. The England one is a lot more expensive for a shorter window."She conceded the tree was “a little bit wonky. But it is a beautiful tree that will be decorated this weekend and, let’s face it, Pisa’s famous leaning tower is celebrated and adored the world over. Dean Chapman, McDonald’s Franchisee manager said: “I am pleased MyMcDonald’s Rewards has launched in Birmingham and I know our customers will love earning and enjoying rewards on some of their favourite menu items. It was great to have LadBaby and LadBaby Mum here to help us with the launch at my Bristol Road restaurant in Birmingham. Why not enjoy our ever so slightly leaning tree and express some gratitude and festive cheer? For many years, a dedicated team of volunteers has worked incredibly hard to deliver what is, arguably, one of the finest Christmas lights displays in Cambridgeshire.” She told Cambridgeshire Live: “It is very disappointing that each year sees a small (but very vocal) minority surface, which seems hellbent on spreading negativity, finding fault, levelling criticism, and generally trying to kill the spirit of Christmas.”
