My New Party

New United Kingdom European Union (NUKEU)

Policies

1. Full Brexit.
2. Open invitation to EU member states to leave the EU for a new United Kingdom European Union based on UK terms.

Anyone want to join?

Can i stand in Nottingham? Or if not I'd like Portmeirion. I do have previous experience of being soundly beaten in an election - so i would be perfectly suited to being well beaten as a NUKEU candidate. After all there is no substitute for experience. Unless you count money of course...

Tomorrow we have the excitement of local Council elections here.

You will need to sign up to our manifesto.

Here it is in full:

"Following full Brexit, we will invite countries to leave the EU and join the new UK European Union on UK terms, beginning with Malta and Cyprus, and then taking 23 other member countries in alphabetical order before finally inviting Germany and France".

Can i suggest we add - "We are committed to the reintroduction of a hard border between the North and South of Ireland."

The return of smuggling would be a massive boon to the economy on both sides of the border!

Hard border, soft border, no border, half border.

I'm easy.

Can I be the first to commiserate with the Whigs for getting no councillors in the local election and to congratulate the Commonweal Party for becoming the 17th biggest party in Gwynedd shortly after I injected dandelions this morning.

So much for Gelert of Beddgelert.

What do you guys think of Donald

I mentioned it once but I think I got away with it... :S

Is this the Donald you refer to Tadcaster2014 ?

Just to bring you up to speed, Les Rost Beefs have elected A Horseradish to run an alternative Ununited Kingdom. We're going to have hard boiled borders and free cake. And Playful is the new Minister of Sound. So are you with us, or with wiggy ?

I'm worried about the rise of the Labour Party and the way that they are cynically exploiting the naivity of the young. It's not so much Corbyn but I think that Watson and McDonnell are evil and dangerous.

McDonnell has a black, black soul.

If the past couple of months have showed us anything, it's that too many people have forgotten - or never learned - about both the IRA and socialism.

Whether we all like it or not, the young have every right to vote for who they choose. They have more life ahead than many of us do - the future is theirs and if the want to vote Labour, they've every right. How can we be so sure they're wrong and we're right?

And, on another level, I spent today with a friend who lives between Scotland ( she's a physics professor, so no fool) and France. I wasn't at all surprised to learn we're the laughing stock of Europe due to Brexit. As for Theresa May - even bigger laughing stock due to exposed thighs and cleavage. Apparently they ask 'Why does she show these melons?' No dignity.

Labour are a shower of shit and Corbyn is a dangerous communist masquerading as a genial alternative to New Labour. But, Theresa May is toxic. She has the charm and appeal of a tumor. What a f**king choice.

And this.

Are there any politicians that aren't complete arseholes? Just one? Even just a lone, young new one that can give us some hope!

(And I mean UK ones, so lovely Justin Trudeau doesn't count.)

As we were back in the 70s ("sick man of Europe"). Until Mrs Thatcher came along to rescue us.
