'catchphrase?' is the definition.
(eg a political catchphrase)

'labour needs a new' is the wordplay.
'labour' becomes 'slog' (labour can mean to work or slog).
'needs' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'new' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation eg NT for New Testament).
'slog'+'a'+'n'='SLOGAN'

'election' acts as a link.
This may not be correct. It may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?
