1. A history of the Party/ies
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Official_Monster_Raving_Loony_Party

Lest we don't take party at all seriously, note:
"Despite its satirical nature, some of the things that have featured in Loony manifestos have become law, such as being able to vote at 18, "passports for pets", and all-day pub openings."

2. "26/6/04 OMRLP consider adopting vegetables as candidates"

In the US, we don't just think about it ...

6. You *know* it makes sense - from the Manicfesto...
"Any student who says the word “Like” when not grammatically called for, as in, “Hey, I’m .. Like, going down the… like, pub”, or, “I was, like, don’t do that” will be made to go and stay with George Bush for a week in order to discourage them from other stupid ‘Americanisms’. "

"We will replace the House of Lords with the House of Cards, to make it easier for the Government to deal with. "
Ouch. For that pun, I'm not voting for them after all.

"4 wheel drive vehicles will only be allowed to drive off road, therefore stopping mothers picking up their children from school in them when they only live 100 yards down the road. They will also be wrapped in bubble wrap to make them safer."
No, they got my vote back again.
