Hilarious fake Dublin ad campaign urging people to 'think outdoors and then go home' is an absolute must-watch

This hilarious fake Dublin ad campaign urging people to 'think outdoors and then go home' is an absolute must-watch.

The video, made by comedian Luke Benson, casts a sarcastic eye over the city and its readiness for an outdoor summer.

The video encourages us to get outside and enjoy the city - except in areas that have been fenced off and popular streets used as meeting points for years.

It also encourages us to use the "nine or ten bins" installed in the city before telling us we can also go to the bathroom - at home.

And people absolutely loved it.

One man commented: "This is so on the money, nice one sir!"

Another said: "Mmmmm-hmmmmm that’s good satire!"

And a third wrote: "Brilliant! Dublin City Council any chance you could watch this and wake up! Your responsibility is to provide a city to live in for the people of Dublin!"

You can watch the video in full below.
