Do you have a link to the New Party?

Was this the organisation that was being funded by some mysterious Scots businessman?

I'd forgotten it ever existed.

The New Party website is still up

The Politics of Progress - The New Party

and they are still on the Electoral Commission Register.

I just read teir site. Is this some kind of joke... like what do you get when you cross Menzies Campbell and Ron Paul?

Sorry, Im in quite a comical mood today... it's actually quite interesting.

EDIT: reading more... it keeps getting better O.o

This thread prompted me to look at the New Party's website. Yet again a new version. Very good, I'd say, but how many changes to the website are needed for action? Maybe a New Party person could tell us?

The Politics of Progress - The New Party

Remember folks, the New Forest hasn't had a name change, neither has New Brighton!!!

This is the "rich guy" behind the party!

I don't think the New Party is finished, I think it never really got started.

I am renaming it the Limbo Party.

Alex McKee · 30-12-2007, 03:00 PM

That sounds about right, Matt.

I just did a google search on Robert Durward and found a link to the ElCom website that says he is backing the Progressive Party to the tune of £105,000. Does anyone know anything about this party (they are also based in Scotland)?
