A Party of No Party Politics? (Click Link Below if You Want to Hear More!)

Politics Without Parties » JURY TEAM

Is this for you? I doubt if, with some very well-known exceptions, many in the Research Network are still members of political parties. That isn’t to say we don’t know for which party we shall vote. This is my own position and probably the position of many of us - uncertain of how much support we should give to particular parties but anxious to exercise our democratic vote in all local national and European elections.

Sir Paul Judge, and his friends, are out to tap the legions of thinking, sensible people who are tired of party political wrangling and want reason and best judgment to prevail  Of course they are not the first people to try to do this. Nor  am I recommending this to anyone myself. But it’s worth taking a look at the website and, if your lack of party affiliation is strong enough, maybe you will want to put yourself forward as a candidate.? You might have quite a lot of supporters in the South East and have you looked at what European MPs are paid?
