Change UK, "The Indepndent group" They've got a website, and I'm going to see how long it takes me to find their Europe policy

"It doesn’t have to be this way…
We are a new party to speak up for mainstream Britain and bring our country together again."

Together how? They don't say

"These European Parliament elections offer the British people the chance to send a simple message: it’s time for change."

Yes, but what change? It doesn't say.

It doesn't actually say what their policy is anywhere on their front page. Do they know what they're for? have they even got a policy?

here we go. I've found a page about Who We Are
"Our primary duty as a Party is to put the best interests of the people of this country first and foremost. Our aim is to pursue policies that are evidence-based, not led by ideology . . ."

" . . . taking a long-term perspective to the challenges of the twenty-first century in the national interest, rather than locked in the old party political interests of the twentieth century."

For Christ sake. You started a new party to say THAT?

I've found a paragraph down near the bottom that mentions Europe.

"We believe in maintaining strong alliances with our closest European and international allies on trade, regulation, defence, security and counter-terrorism."

Brexit or Remain, then? Fuck knows.

Serious, to fuck, they started a new political party with the single purpose of failing to find a policy on THE national crisis of the time?

What a damp fucking squib. What a bunch of limp lemons.
