They did nothing about those climate change adverts either, you remember the ones where kittens and bunnies were drowning because daddy bothered to work for a living?

The article you linked to has no such assertion what so ever.

It says that Asda didn't make clear enough that the price guarantee is only applicable to grocery products.

Your post is more sensational than the Daily Mirror.

It's your lucky day...within your post is a handy link to a news story that, not only can you use to correct your understanding of the case, but will also explain the action the ASA took, it's implications and, thus, the point of the ASA. And you'll have answered your own question.
