<p>Oh, the joy of branding! <br/>I hope Clive, that people watching this let YouTube run on to the next video and the ones after that. IndieWhip. The beards. The Donald Trump hair. <em>"On the cusp"</em>. A few frames from Iceland? Why not? <em>"The choice was clear; the choice was obvious". "It's a great sister state to Rhode Island."</em></p>
<p>I hope that other people will notice the 1st April date.</p>

<p>Was the Dalston video made by a Council or a developer? I thought it was too long compared with Rhode Island and Haringey-London.</p>
<p>I did like Rhode Island's (sail-like) logo but thought the script was no better than <em>The Haringey Story.</em></p>
<p>Apparently, in R.I. they face challenges. And—in common with other places in the world (featured in <em>The Haringey Story)</em>—the residents of Rhode Island eat food.</p>

<p>Corporate-style branding <strong><em>is</em></strong> fashionable.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UkW9q7XQTQ" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">This</a> video ("We are Rhode Island") is much in the corporate-branding genre, even if it did take a few too many artistic liberties.</p>

<p>It is claimed that Rhode Island people "are always moving forward …", even if their PR effort may have taken a step backwards. If you haven't watched Haringey-London's video-promo yet, it's <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LssVe6rOlzo&feature=youtu.be" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>The two are worth comparing in pace, music and messaging. In R.I., there's a pizza going <em>into</em> an oven, whereas Haringey-London features bread coming <em>out</em> of an oven. I wonder if other Local Government videos feature ovens – it's not the first thing I associate with Boroughs.</p>
<p>The Rhode Island PR piece has received <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/07/us/a-new-rhode-island-slogan-encounters-social-medias-wrath.html?smid=tw-nytimes&smtyp=cur" target="_blank">criticism</a> on social media, with some deserved ribbing.</p>
<p>It sounds like Rhode Island and Haringey are unique.</p>

<p>Traffic planners' theory is that the speed limits will be made to work by those who do obey it, forcing those behind to stick to the limit or make a suicide bid to overtake, on the narrower side roads that are the ones affected. I take great delight in driving at 19mph round the ex-Gyratory, where millions of idiots still think they can take a short cut by using Broad Lane.</p>

Public health spending by local authorities comes from government grant, ring fenced for that purpose alone. This includes heath promotion which is a duty of all local authorities. As these bottles would have cost the same whatever colour they were and whatever words were on them, do you therefore object to the provision of the water bottles per se?
