"Lol, those are the supposed aims of all the main political parties. Paddy Pantsdown for goodness sake . I have just decided to become a politician and I think I will call my party Fair.UK so pm me for details on how to donate to my cause " It's not a party, as such. It's not standing for office.

The Women's Equality Party went down the party route but is also aimed at being cross party. | |||

Each political party would claim that for a manefesto as it sounds good. I can count on no fingers how many would acheive more than two on the list. | |||

" At least Donald trump funds his own way, would be nice if others could fund their own way in politics" I agree it is good that Politicians aren't largely funded by a few rich mega donors and corporations. It leaves them beholden and it is never a good thing if these people spend too much time around rich people. However Trump already is one of those very rich people and he spends much of his time in the company of other very rich people. Furthermore, he isn't really funding his won campaign. He does get donations, but the rest of his campaign is funded by loans to his campaign which means he can pay himself back out of other funds. | |||
