Ah hem.. it's "Bonker" if you don't mind. I dislike being referred to as "Bonkers"

I was talking to bonkers m8...
Im actually very interested in the op, and yes i know a manifesto takes time/effort

OK .. bit of clarification .. because most people don't actually read ...



It is easy enough to form a party, I never said it's easy to get elected to an MP position or Prime Minister ...

BEING a Politician is easy enough.
Being an executive is more challenging.
Being a Party Leader is even more challenging.


You sir, are a moron/idiot/fool, nuff' said. Politicians and leaders do tend to ignore morons like you because there's a dime a dozen of you around, unfortunately. 


Sorry you had a bad experience? Or, no experience from the sound of it. What pro-activeness did you do for your party? Or anything at all?


Again.. your experience of politics was? Becoming a member of a party and then..?


Seeing as a manifesto hasn't been written yet, and what I said in the OP was the general direction.. I am very curious as to WHAT our Policies would be exactly? Seeing as you apparently know them all already?

Or wait.. maybe you can't see the future, nor read my mind, nor read the other people that will help write such a manifesto's minds.. amagash, nowaiz?

Please try to think with at least a couple of brain cells before replying to posts ... I can virtually hear your brain squeeking from here.. it's very embarrassing..

And you're not going to understand what I mean by that last sentence are you

On the £10 thing, membership fees to Political Parties are dependent on whatever the Party sets, they can be free, or £1, or £50, etc, etc.

I'm not sure who your last reply is directed at. A proper manifesto takes a while to write up, a draft is do'able in shorter time obviously, but I'm not putting in that kind of effort with hardly any interest.

If you're in the US, this is what the general UK population is like - Imagine you had your guns taken from you, all of you, a couple hundred years back, and then every time someone raised their head for more equality and to end the corruption the population gets beaten down, often literally (if you check the histories). This inspires other close minded individuals to attack anyone who dares speak up. You think you have it bad in the US, hah, imagine what the general mentality would be like a few hundred years down the line with regard to "amagad, must stick nose up Presidents ass as far as I can get it! Can ..not.. think..outside...box...arrrg..!" Welcome to the UK ...

lol your policy's will never get anyone elected m8

If only it was that easy!

I joined a new UK political party a few years ago called the Libertarian Party UK.

It cost me a £10, I got a nice key ring and the fella who became leader ended up making a dick of himself on TV!

Niche politics is a waste of time in today's day and age - far better to bypass it completely and create a lobby group for what you want.

Spend a few years lobbying the EU for some nice closed shop practices and retire in relative wealth!  Yes, modern politics is easy!

ah hem... read the above post.

Id be interested in reading a draft manifesto..

What a great idea! The Smackheads And Free-Energy Party

Hang on, I can bang out a manifesto pretty quick:

1) Free drugs for all - the bovine masses can be trusted to be sensible and consume in moderation. I know, I've been to Newcastle on a Saturday night.
2) Free Energy! - whatever than means? Post people parcels of coal? Strap windfarms on house roofs?
3) Free Economy! - No more central banker banksters and their central bank ponzi scheme of usary! BTC will be the official currency. The vacant skulls on the Tesco checkout will take to blockchain confirmations like ducks to water
4) Free the Animals! - Zoos to be opened and animals released
5) Free Car Tyres - All car tyres to be replaced with chocolate ones

I could go on? Donation below to join my campaign team:

Libertarians are usually open to such ideas.

Radical, non-mainstream politics is definitely not "pretty easy". I was involved in some political work in my country (Poland), firstly in Congress of the New Right, today in the new, polish Libertarian Party (Partia Libertariańska). 0.5-1.5 % in every election...

There's been a few threads about "what will you do with your bitcoin wealth."

And I've been umming and ahhing, etc, etc, havn't got 'loads' myself (having come late to btc in 2012, and then just for silk road, before I realised what Bitcoin was).

But if Bitcoin does rise in value to a suitable amount by 2014 - I propose a new Political Party (which I'd setup myself if btc increases to a suitable amount that I'd be able to afford to). If it rose to a suitable amount by the end of this year, then I'd start it then.

So, here's me wondering if anyone else from the UK would be interested in standing for office? (as an MP) in the general elections in 2015. And honestly, being a politician is pretty easy tbh, though you get a fair bit of hassle from time to time and I expect the party that we'd create would get some media drama also fun fun!

It needs an executive group, ideals, etc, etc, I'd start writing up a mandate if there was interest and btc looked like it was about to enter the singularity (or if it was already in the singularity). Might start writing one up anyway...

Anyway, not to get into it too much straight away, the general gist of the party mandate would be freedom and escape from banking control. Three main criteria, free energy (supporting free energy), natural medicine (ending the farce of a 'drug war', yes this means ALL drugs (but not a free for all), not just Cannabis) and a free economy (I wonder how 'introduction of Bitcoin into mainstream economic practice' would be received).

It is most definitely NOT a 1 man job, and obviously it would need finance backing (this is why I say only possible if btc rises to a suitable amount in value).

Unfortunately I'll only do this if I can afford to, the elite to have it nicely wrapped up that politics in the UK is generally only opened to those with money, and if you want to get anywhere, then definitely only those with money.

And you don't have to stand to be an MP if you still want to help, you can easily just be a party member, or (if/when it happens) just donate.

If there's honest interest then post a reply or feel free to PM me.

We are in the belly of the beast. Who's brave enough?
