I agree. At the moment the party is hidden behind a multitude of designs and logos. It should not be left to individuals and branches to decide which log to use.
What we need in the first instance, is an Image, that is conducive to and aligned with "our aim". The use of archaic terminology, ie Great Britain is, IMHO, an anchor to an outdated and failed past and "does not" reflect our objective.

The lead sentence at the top has the Party going by the name of Socialist Party.
Here's a rather fuzzy screenshot of the Ad in one of the local Sussex newspapers. I'm told it's much better 'in the flesh'.
Well done.Once again i have to say we should be spending more money in our advertising of meetings and of the party generally. In my experience, local papers are usually read from front page to the back page, particularly the classifieds, unlike the nationals when only a few sections get read and the other bits are merely skimmed.Also worth exploring are the local university/college newspapers.
