Australia's Nation Brand Advisory Council, set up by former PM Malcolm Turnbull, recommended scrapping the kangaroo in a report that was adopted by Trade Minister Simon Birmingham.

I imagine the foreign influenced exec class would consider the kangaroo logo to be a bit corny - however like the life-saver caps is instantly obvious from a distance  - maybe that is another problem , to " in - your - face " brash for the polite international trade

The new 'Made in Australia' logo.

Which, as was noted on today's TV news, is an automatic fail.

If a logo needs to be explained, it is not a useful logo.

After all a yellow kangaroo in a green triangle could be mistaken for... ummm... ummm... something else.

What's the bet the ad agency being paid the 10 mill to come up with this rubbish is also a liberal donor to the Liberal Party.

Mining magnate Andrew Forrest heads the Nation Brand Advisory Council that approved the logo, alongside fellow luminaries including Qantas CEO Alan Joyce and tech billionaire Mike Cannon-Brookes

I wonder who got the 10 mil?

Apparently it's to sit alongside the other. Why have a second when the first works ok? I wonder who had the vested interest.
