From small acorns...!!

I am pleased to see the Tories nationally have chosen to in effect produce a new party logo of a tree that is remarkably similar to the Sutton Council logo of a tree!

Of course when the Council introduced the tree logo in the late 1980's the local Tories at the time objected to such a change arguing for retention of the quaint Council heraldic crest. This was despite knowing that almost every major business in the country was introducing simplified logos at the time. However with the retirement of Councillor Trevor, I suspect the last of the defenders of the old logo have gone.

I also suspect we will see a similar change of heart happen with the Council magazine, despite the usual cheap shots from a minority of Tory Councillors, I really suspect they will sensibly keep the magazine if they come to power. This of course is just what their collegues in both Croydon and Merton have done, having come to power. Colleguse in Westminster and Wandsworth also have rather impressive magazines too.

Knowing full well, they will do the same, instead of cheap jibes it would be much more sensible if they get one of their Councillors like Tim Crowley to examine how, for example, they could save money on the publication, through more advertising and sponsorship.
