Billboards in Tottenham Court Road underground station in London have become the unlikely centre of a public relations war between the Church of Scientology and its defectors. In mid-January three adverts were installed on the Central Line platform promoting the church. Curious?” The adverts were controversial, not least with those who have left the church. On Monday, three new adverts are set to be unveiled in the same spots with a near-identical design. However, they feature three ex-Scientologists — Alex Barnes-Ross, Claire Headley and Mike Rinder — and promote the Michael J Rinder Aftermath Foundation, a nonprofit group founded by Headley to support people who have left the church.
