A new slogan for ACT



Trevor Loudon Here has picked up on Daniel F Kings comments on this blog Here about ACT's "The Liberal Party" slogan. I personally DON'T like the slogan and think that ACT would actually be better of without it. Question is..... What would be a better slogan for ACT, should ACT drop a slogan all together, or do you like "The Liberal Party" slogan?

ACT The freedom party, Stand up for NZ ACT, ACT A better New Zealand, ACT A stronger New Zealand, ACT The deciding factor. ACT The right choice, ACT Your party.

There are plenty more.

And don't say "The Peoples Party" that would be very un APT.

You have to be very careful with slogans because they tend to suck. How about a nice rhetorical question like "What's wrong with prosperity?" No one could really come up with anything and it implicitly but clearly states what ACT is after.

Please!

Dump 'the liberal party'

People, bless their little cotton socks, take that one the wrong way!

Liberal=leftie to so many NZ'ers.

You have to keep it simple for the potential followers- remember- they ARE followers!

How about 'ACT Now!'

Just my opinion said...

I agree, I am not a fan of the Liberal name whatsoever. I am a right wing liberal with smatterings of conservatism here and there.. but the name itself reeks of dirty leftism.

I will have to think more about what would be better as a slogan, if we really need one. National doesn't have one and we know they are conservatives.

I agree, I'm a liberal but I don't think the slogan does anything for us.

Better to have something else or nothing at all.

I quite like ACT: The Freedom Party, and also ACT: The Right Choice.

Although there is a Freedom Party in Austria that isn't good to be linked to in name.

Isn't the Freedom Party that useless offshoot spawned by King and his mates in the hope that ACT would collapse at the last election? Better be careful about using that slogan!

Haha, mate (singular).
King and a formerPresidential candidate who got thumped.

Anonymous - that was PAUL King, not Daniel King who has been a candidate for ACT in the past and has commented on this blog.

I really loved 'Values Not Politics' and I wish we hadn't changed that. I guess some thought it needed freshening up?

Rob Good said...

Yes that was good..... Hope the new president has some balls to make some changes.
