Where can I find the previous style guide ?

The fact that its the dominant colour is distinctly unsettling to me.

I understand that they're complementary colours but why not a purple, or similar?

It is clear that this has political overtones, and I'm not fond.

You speak for yourself. This isn't my glass. My glass was FULL, AND it was bigger than this one. Some bugger's nicked my glass!

Chris I've been writing colour leaflets since 1997 and never had any problems before. All colors have a place in full-colour literature but I would never, never have suggested using blue as the dominant colour (which is the case in the examples in the style guide and the illustration circulated by ALDC) as it carries clear political overtones.
