2) Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour leadership campaign
Widely highlighted as an example of an outstanding PR campaign, the success of this transformed British politics by putting a man with a very clear moral purpose at the head of one of the two leading parties.
3) General election campaign
Ironically, Corbyn won as a direct consequence of the success of the third most admired campaign this year, David Cameron and Lynton Crosby’s general election campaign. Many experts predicted that the 2015 general election would be very close and some even suggested a hung Parliament. However, the Conservatives ended up beating Labour comfortably and even secured a slim majority.

To celebrate World Peace Day, Burger King created the website McWhopper.com with details of how the burger – a mixture of its Whopper and McDonald’s Big Mac – could "get the world talking about Peace Day". McDonald's global CEO Steve Easterbrook criticised his rival's comparison of war.
