A little bit of politics

Who knew that it was so easy to set up a political party? According to this BBC News article, all you need is two people, a constitution and £150! So, if anyone wants to join with me and form The Arty Farty Party (and has £150 laying around), then let me know. I will, of course, be Supreme Leader For Life and you can be Chief Minion. Our policies will have a broad appeal and include

  • free Smarties on the NHS
  • beer hydrants in every street
  • an increase in spending on public gardens
  • twenty seven new bank holidays

Any other policy ideas?

    Chief Minion? Not much of a selling point.

    Unless the position comes with someone to cut my grass…

    Well, as Chief Minion you would get to direct the lower Minions to do your bidding (so long as you bidding complied with the bidding of the Supreme Leader For Life).

    The Monster Raving Loony manifest is good fun too.

    We will issue a 99p coin to save on change.

    All cars will be converted to run on Venos to help stop congestion.

    Anyone caught breaking the law will be made to mend it.

    All people that think that they have a right to roam will need permission from the Pope.

    The white cliffs of Dover will be painted blue to camouflage our islands.

    I don’t see why not. Perhaps we could set up an American branch and you could be the new Ross Perot?
