    The Official Monster Raving Loony Party http://www.omrlp.com/ have promised to introduce a 99p coin, in order to save on change.

    This is the most sensible thing I have heard in years.

    some of them sound like pretty good policies

    Any MP whose constituency sells off a school playing field for development will be required to relinquish their own back garden as a replacement sports facility for the school.

    We intend to make free university tuition available to all students named Grant.


    I think I know who I am going to vote for this time.

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




    Sadly neither do we.

    SGG is a big fan - she was reading these out to me the other night. I spent a happy hour reading their rather comprehensive web site.

    I'd rather vote for them than the big 2 at the moment.

    Anyone know when Blaire will hold the referendum on PR he promised in 1997?

    I think we got it for the Scottish Executive, or at least a hybrid system. Local winners plus selections from a list.

    Also, I believe, we are about to get PR for local elections (much to the annoyance of some councillors)

    One wonders why.

    Do you think they prefer a majority of t'votes being held by one party. Rather than having to debate and compromise in order to reach accord. (I use the last as an homage to j2 using the word fiat).
