Thanks: Gave 190, Got 190 | New Tory logo - and you thought the Labour rose was duff http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/5348630.stm
And they £40K for this?
Looks it should be the logo for the Green Party. Or a housing Association.
So who'se to blame - the Client or the Agency?

Client obviously. I'm sure the Agency came up with several designs, then the Tories picked one.
Although for 40K, they probably had the work experince kids on the job. |

looks more like a council logo than a major party logo.

Dave's next going to rename them Consigniatives
The Labour rose wasn't duff imho, a bit dated now perhaps
But this green sqiggle looks like its more suited for a cheap ITV advert for a local conservatory company

Even Tory party members are saying it's naff. Yet we are told by Central office that 'they' approved the design? Someone being economic with the truth? Just not with the logo..............

I'd have thought a wetsuit, Satsuma and some rope would have been more appropriate

Who cares about a logo? It's the ideas the politicians have that count.
Apple's logo's just that, an apple, nothing special about it, a kid could have done it, but it's become famous.

I think it is naff, but shows the tories how much they need an image change if they ever want to win an election.
Won't pull the wool over my eyes though.

Labour are currently doing more than enough to self destruct and give people enough reasons to vote for the Tories.
