From the team that brought us:

Take back control
Brexit means Brexit
Get Brexit Done

And other slogans.

They do like their short 3 word or 3 phrase slogans.

It appeals to the monkey part of human brains. It like short, memorable, simple and catchy slogans. Like:
Just do it.
I'm loving it.
Always Coca Cola.
Finger licking good.
Have a break, have a kit kat.

And lots of others.
It works especially well on idiots. 👍

I think it's so it will fit in with "defcon" type levels.

AnneLovesGilbert · 09/05/2020 23:03

Not catchy is it.

Faircastle · 09/05/2020 23:03

At least this one doesn't have a missing preposition.

chomalungma · 09/05/2020 23:07

Stay alert,,,your country needs 'lerts'

Just me?

Faircastle · 09/05/2020 23:29

WatcherintheRye · 09/05/2020 23:33

Sorry, I missed this. Blush When was this announced? Or has it been leaked?

ChandlerIsTheBestFriend · 09/05/2020 23:35

What do I have to be alert to... In my house?

BirdieFriendReturns · 09/05/2020 23:36

In our house it’s “Brexit means breakfast.”

boatyardblues · 09/05/2020 23:38

I’m getting pretty fed up of stuff being “leaked” (yeah right Hmm) so the govt can see which way the wind is blowing.
