Usually discussion of what to name “Your Party” ends up being joke time. So I thought maybe one thread where we make actual suggestions?

I had one idea that came to me in the shower this morning:

Better Way

Here’s my argument. Most folks really hate the status quo. They hate capitalism and they hate neoliberalism, even if they don’t fully understand what it is they hate and much less able to conceptualize what it is they hate and what the solutions are. All that Reform and the Tories can offer is racism, transphobia, and a hollow, farcical nationalism. Labour explicitly says there’s nothing better than this, so tighten those belts and eat your spoonful of austerity (along with racism and transphobia ofc).

“Better Way”, to me, communicates that you don’t have to accept what’s currently on offer: there is something better. And the party can and should articulate what those better things are. “Better Way” acknowledges peoples’ dissatisfaction with the state of things and the current political options. The public is told you have no other choices than shitty ones, but there is something better out there.

But more interested to hear your ideas.
