    I'd consider the Monster Raving Loonies but their policy for a giant p1ss-up might not be as great for the economy as it sounds.
    Funnily enough many of the Monster Raving Loonies policies have actually made it onto the statute book. Someone posted a list of them on this site a while back.

      Really? That's fab.

      Looking at the state of our economy now, I ask myself "would they have done any worse than Snotto?"

        Yes, from a quick look at Wikipedia: voting at 18, passports for pets, all-day pub opening. I'm sure there were quite a few others.

          I liked their policy of making parliament more accessable to the people by putting it on wheels and towing it round the country.

          Classic.
          Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - Epicurus

            Unfortunately they’ve never found a new leader with the charisma, political nouse and ability to unite people of Screaming Lord Sutch. Howlin Laud Hope seems to be trying his best, but the British electorate prefers dull, dour, financially incompetent snot goblins to Boss Hogg look-a-likes who balance the books.

              Biggest con by any government ever, and Cash Gordon McSnotty is the architect of this most deceitful of off balance sheet ENRON style frauds.

              The conservatives created PFI to deal with real infrastructure investment a long time ago. El Gordo (apparently spanish for "The Fat One"!)took it and used it as a way to spend bollock loads of cash and hide it from the balance sheets, and therefore the budget deficit, thereby meeting is precious Golden Rules!

              God damn this twat has financialy ruined the UK, and whats worse, I fliping voted for the cnuts back in 2001! (was out of the country in '05, but by then was leaning towards Lib Dems)
              Burn him!
              Cats are evil.
