Again, it's not about the topic. It's not about who else supports it. It's not about the benefits of a product. It's not about Iceland's policy on palm oil, or the virtues thereof.

The problem is taking, wholesale, content from a political organisation and using it in a realm that has laws about political content.

Removing the logo is, if anything, worse - it hides the origin of the video and ads dishonesty to the mix.

If Iceland made their own video about the consequences of the palm oil industry and advertised it, I'd be interested to see if ClearCast approved it.
