The Metropolitan Police Service launched a Counter-Terrorism campaign and unfortunately it seems to be real and not just a joke.
The following is copied from here:
The five-week campaign asks members of the public to report any suspicious behaviour in confidence to the Anti-Terrorist Hotline on 0800 789 321.
Press advertising will appear in London’s major newspapers and on the City’s main commercial radio stations.

Advertising will also run in the Greater Manchester, West Yorkshire and the West Midlands.
