This, the tenth entry for this blog, is the poster which David Cameron hopes will be of most importance to the public in the upcoming election: cutting benefits for the work-shy i.e. those who are able to work but refuse to do so.The way that this image is styled makes it seem that the large white words in the poster are exactly what Mr Cameron is saying at the exact moment that he was photographed.

All in all, this is rather a bland image compared to the others, with nothing redeeming to make it stand out. There is nothing of interest to point out in these blogs as it is just a photo of the party leader, the intention in very big clear letters, with a "Vote Conservative" conveniently placed at the bottom of the image to make the reader read it after they had just read the main point of the poster. The fact that this poster is boring and has nothing redeeming is redeeming in itself, as all the other posters or images that I have blogged about previously had some unusual design trait or traits that made them stand out.
The poster seems to be getting rid of the "unique" design ideas for the other Conservative posters in this general election campaign, yet still keeps the idea of keeping the Tory leader to the left, as the basis of the idea for the poster, with the main point in clear lettering to the right.
So, not much can be said of this photo, rather a weak effort to win the electorate's vote, especially as mocking the tory posters was so much fun, this one seems almost un-mockable.
