A POSTER bashing Swindon has been plastered across Oxford.
The white sign, spotted glued to a brick wall, urges residents to stay at home in the midst of coronavirus lockdown and says: "At least you're not in Swindon. #StayhomeOxford."
It claims to be from Oxford City Council and uses its well known font, colour way and logo to try and get away with it.

Taking to Twitter Dominic Utton shared the snap of it, saying: "Brilliant work by [the council]."
But the social media team replied: "Nope, it wasn't us."
Before telling this paper: "We’re a bit biased of course, but we think if you’re stuck somewhere in lockdown, there’s no better place in the world to be than Oxford.”
Mr Utton said they had 'missed a trick' after it made him laugh out loud.
