YouTube debut for New Party following Politics Show appearance

The UK's only truly progressive political party has made its debut on YouTube with a clip of National Spokesperson Richard Vass's appearance on the BBC One's Politics Show.

Presenters for the popular Sunday television programme were impressed with the Party's fresh approach to the problem of MPs expenses. So Richard Vass accepted an invitation to expand on the party's views over the Kelly Report.

"If we are in a situation where we cannot trust an MP to employ his wife in an honest fashion, we certainly cannot trust them to run a bath let alone our armed forces, finances, schools or hospitals. What message does this send about the status of MPs?

"The Kelly report is a populist waste of paper...Once again mob mentality has won the day and it will only work to drive good people further away from Westminster," he said.
