Third Parties
You can denigrate third party fantacists but don't denigrate 3rd (or 4th or 5th) parties. They play a valuable role in keeping entrenched parties responsive to popular will and, with a few changes to the electoral system, could be prevented from acting as spoilers.On Who's doing what posted 3 years, 1 month ago 20 Responses

From The Guardian Aug. 8, 2006:
The green aura surrounding David Cameron faded to a dullish turquoise yesterday after the Conservative leader confessed that he only rides his trusty - and much photographed - bicycle to Westminster once a week.

He also took the opportunity to point out that it was "not true at all" that a car still followed him to work carrying his shoes and papers. "That did happen once or twice and I've now made sure that it will never happen again," he said.
