We have eighty one days to the General Election widely predicted for May 6th, whilst we are only putting up a few candidates and endorsing a few independents on the basis that this is going to be an 'Anyone But Gordon' Election, and we are focussing our efforts on Local Elections, this is still going to cost money.
If the Cameronian Conservative Party gets in, they will need opposing just as hard as the Labour Party, if it is a hung parliament Politics will be a bit more interesting at both local and national level.
My job as treasurer is however to prepare for the upswing in political debate.

Yes, it's a bit of a dilemma isn't it? We hardly want to split the vote and let Brown back in at almost any price and yet the Libertarian Party wants to win seats and can get nowhere without doing so. Catch 22 indeed, eh?
Local government is the obvious route to prove the principles and efficiency of the party, but then it's hardly possible to make significant major changes by sweeping away much of the nonsensical crap in local government when most of that is decreed by overbearing central government.
A strategy is required for change, but what? Do we really have one?
The strategy is that of the realistic first steps on a long road
