One of my mates gave me a pamhlet to do with this party, I dunno what to make of em.
They're not for me, their 10 aims seem a bit vague and simplistic.
I really ought to read it properly before posting, but I can't be ar5ed right now, I'm disinclined to any political party that utilises racial, national or religious archetypes for an electorate.
What do you think of their idea of distributism?

The main page of their site refers to the Kraft buyout of Cadburys and the subsequent closure of the Keynsham site...don't agree with the closure but Cadburys were already closing it down and moving production to Poland. With the Kraft buy out all it means is we can conveniently blame the Americans for the job losses.
Their website is just ghastly.
Their core policies seem to be pretty much the same of most other 'radical' parties (end immigration, leave the EU/NATO/whatever, economic nationalism etc though they are unusually keen on green issues).
I find the rhetoric on their site very grating though. It's true that there's always been radicals bubbling under the surface in England but to claim we've got a radical tradition of some kind seems awfully contrived, especially when you look at the continent.
On the other hand, it says they've only been around since July last year, so I kind of respect their ability to organise.
'What do you think of their idea of distributism'
I'm not sure I get it, actually. From what's on the site, it seems to want to ignore globalisation and wish it to go away. I don't think that's as practical as they make it out to be.
