In fact I think I will start the BBCP. (British Bread and Circus Party)


If you don't want to be at pains founding a new party, why not join one of the already existing like
The Leisure Party ("The Leisure Party visualises and proposes the creation of a scenario within which every voter would be a well paid member of an electronically interactive parliament".)
or The Rainbow Party ("The best party in town ...").

Might well be - especially re. all your spam emails! - that The Virtual Party ("Fed up with sleaze, privacy invasion, junk mail, bomb scares, constitutional debates, nationalism, street cameras, political posturing and paying for local phone calls?") could be a good alternative as well :wink:

It looks as if its going to be really popular. No joining fee. Just donate all your worldly goods to me as founder and leader. Very Happy

Could be a good idea for the first party meeting tomorrow Laughing

And if my pals Gautam, KP and the Steves are involved, my best to them too.

Goodbye from a very bangy Guy Fawkes' Night; God alone knows where the kids get the money for all those fireworks.

I think Gautam and Steve will be meeting with Walter, but I can't get away from the office in the time frame required. Sad

We're just back from meeting up with Gautam.

Lunch in All Bar One .... Canary Wharf

Great chat

It was entirely due to the generosity, civility and general good eggness of Gautam. More later. Off to the Travellers Friend in Epping Green for more eating and drinking. (and smoking )

Yes traditional British food

African tigne (or something like that with apricots)
char grilled chicken sandwich
Argentinian banana wine (actually bondana)
deep fried mars bar


oh how I long for a plate of tripe and elder (no I dont, but absence makes the heart grow fonder and distorts memory)

Ah, piffle. Why bother with such trifle ersatz wannabe's when you can go for the real thing? If you remember Screaming Lord Sutch (I could swear I saw his ghost in Vienna last Friday), join the one and only Official Monster Raving Loony Party. You know it makes sense.

The real thing? Could be (if I lived in the Netherlands) for me more the Verenigde Senioren Partij (VSP).

Just because I like the name, I perhaps would prefer the Jongere Onafhankelijke Ouderen Partij (J.O.O.P)

However, I'm rather sure, although I'm interested in history, the Bonapartistische Partij (BPN) wouldn't like me.
