    My policy for election is to lower taxes on booze, flat screen TVs and football ticket prices. And to make top flight football free to TV.

    What could possibly go wrong....

      Vote - None of the Above.
      I'm one of those that's always wanted that on ballot papers, an official protest vote.
      It's almost worth changing your name by deep poll and standing.

        You should start the "None of the above party" and then only allow people with a last name beginning with "Z" to stand as candidates.

        The only problem is they could end up getting elected...

          Well that would be the ultimate protest vote if you could find candidates (names beginning with zzpluralpha) who wanted to stand on the 'reform' ticket.

            The Monster Raving Looney Party use fake names to stand so I presume your party candidates could do the same.

              You might want to shelve the "Europe" from your moniker to give yourself any sort of a chance.

              HTH

              unless there is such a word as "petractor" and he wants to petract the euro!

              Sounds like potentially a very sound idea, if it is bad for the euro, but hinges on what petracting involves!

                My program
                - court order to ban GB9 from speaking publicly
                - jail markymark for being an idiot (good enough reason imo). Also take him inside ir35 retrospectively.
                - ban all burqas for those 5% that are actually pretty. Rest better keep it on.
                - join euro (for fun haha)
                - kick out scots out of union (they don't deserve it)
                - make lying in campaign illegal and jail Nigel retrospectively

                  Where can I cast my vote ?



                  You really do sound like a really solid Northern candidate. (Bigger boys will cover the Southern situation).

                      I would vote for you
                      Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
