The latest “Stop The Boats” made me think about this & I’ve done a search but can’t find a thread, but does anyone have a list of 3 word political slogans since 2010?
UK only & any party.
"The Final Solution" coming to a podium near you real soon.
We've become more concise in recent years.
"Get on your bike"
"The ladies not for turning"
"Tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime"
I suggested on another thread we plot all the there word slogans into what3words and see what we get when we join the dots (all though w3w doesnt really work with the definite article
If you look in satalite view 'oven ready deal' appears to be dead in a ditch
Cash for ash. More of a policy than a slogan though.
Get Brexit Done.
Brexit Means Brexit.
Take Back Control.
Oven Ready Deal.
Hands, face, space
Or the Matt Hancock version of that:
Hands, face, myplace...
Rather than what3words
www.fourkingmaps.co.uk
Is probably more appropriate…
Kraft durch Freude
Hug a Hoody was a personal fave of mine.
They came up with a good new one for the Tories on the Last Leg last night
Oh **** off!

It's all a bit Lynton Crosby.
Rehash US omnishambles.
Eat The Rich, a personal favourite.
Ironic that the person causing the current pain for the government is a (multi?) millionaire
Of course we should be able to choose which rich people we'd like to eat.
I'm not a monster.....
All power to the Soviets! (TBF it's three words in the Russian original).
Free Nelson Mandela
Romanes eunt domus
Hands, face, arse.
Coming soon…
Community, Identity, Stability
Also comming soon:
Pensions. are. worthless.
Theresa May's 3 word slogan even has its own Wikipedia entry
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strong_and_stable
Blimey I can't believe that it's down to me, a leave supporter, to remind everyone of the 'Bollocks to Brexit' slogan.
Back, sack, crack.
Bacon sandwich please
Liberté, égalité, fraternité
Mangez des pommes
Hasta Siempre, Comandante.
For this Tory Gov,there's many 3 word policies
For the rich
Freeze or Starve
F+ck the poor
Me me me
Nazi Party #2
Let peasants die
Don't give Ashit.

From the Wiki link Ernie posted:
David Cutts, professor of political science at the University of Birmingham, has described the phrase as an example of compressing information to provide helpful cues to voters and reduce the time needed to acquire information
Because acquiring information that will inform voting behaviour is a waste of time? Perhaps so.
Perhaps being drip fed “helpful clues” is all I need to then fill in the gaps with whatever my imagination/wishes/bias conjure up.
**** The Country
Joy Through Work
Death To Traitors
On Your Bike
I Love You
Stay at home.
