The best of the bunch

May was a busy month for industry awards but the hangovers didn’t stop people taking to the Stoppress comment section to have their point heard, and when ASB and Saatchi & Saatchi confirmed they were ending their partnership, things really heated up. We pick out some of the best comments from the thread:
