How do you set up your own political party?

I shouldn't if I were you!  \n\nI know someone who set up a political party - hang on, I'll just see if it's still around . . . . no - it's gone but I remember the founder who came canvassing my door in the election when Neil Hamilton lost his seat to Martin Bell.  He eventually got .03% of the vote and had experienced the most dreadful events which he reckoned were designed to put him off carrying on, and it had all cost him an absolute fortune.\n\nI believe New Labour have changed the rules now to make it more difficult for newcomers to enter the political circus - you have to first register your party and all kinds of details.  Have a look at Wikipedia.com. I'm sure you will find lots of information there. \n\nHowever, if you have to ask how to set up your own political party [unless it's a joke party like Screaming Lord Sutch] I think you may not be up to it.  It's a vicious game!  Why don't you join U£IP if you don't like the mainstream - they've done all the donkey work!!

Plant the seeds for honest dealings.  Lead by example and convince others to do the same.\n\nToday's children/teens (offspring of the baby boom) will be the largest voting demographic shortly. Convince todays' youth as to how much political power that actually is. \n\nTake the initiative and start new political parties NOW (even if you are too young to vote).\n\nThe youth of the world are pationate and can make quite a bit of change become a reality.  Lead and train others to lead.

Here's a full factsheet from the Electoral Commission about the ins and outs of being a candidate at a General Election. The Electoral Services department at your local authority may also be able to point you in the right direction.\n\nAlso, if there's a political party out there you wouldn't mind standing for, then by all means join it and try and get yourself considered for selection. It's quite a big thing certainly, but if you work hard at it you could possibly do it.

Get political, become the leader of a nation and order your troops into other nations' territories. No better way to commit a perfect crime. LOL.

Get involved in local politics be working for a candidtate or issue that interests you.  Get involved with your Political Party on the local level.  Meet as many people as you can and be there and work hard.  You can file and run for office and with a little name recognition you will be surprised how many votes you get.  Do not just run for any open office that comes up as you do not want to get the name as someone who is a loser, but run often enough to gain more name recognition.  This is a good way to become known and possibly get a staff position with someone on the State or Federal level.\n\nEducation in Political Science or Law help when you want to go for a higher office or staff position.  Just get your name out there as a worker and you can go a long way.

GET THE MOST VOTES.\n\nBut seriously, there are different stategies for a primary vs a general. \nIn a primary, you are usually aiming towards the core voters in your party, who tend to be more extreme than the general electorate. You need to spell out the differences rather shaprly with your opponent, even though you may not differ all that much on key issues. A primary campaign is more of a "red meat" campaign, where you probably throw more punches toward your opponent.\n\nGeneral elections - You have to appeal to a broader group of people, and you have to be likable. People do not vote for someone they do not like (Aside from Nixon).\nYou still have to spell out differences with your opponent, but blunt your hard edges.\n\nThe key thing, sad to say, is MONEY. About 90 percent of the time, the candidate with more cash is the candidate who wins. More money equals more media, more staff, mor everything.\n\nWell, those are some basic ideas without knowing what office you're running for in which party.

You need a few thousands people to sign that they agree to join your party(I don't know the number of signatures for your country), find funding and you register the party in court.\nIt seems easy but it is very very difficult.

Start locally first. Get involved with a local political party, and get involved with local activist groups. If there are none, create one. \n\nThe First Amendment gives you the right to free speech, and to public assembly. \n\nDON'T give in to cynicism, or apathy. This is great country, and we the people make it so. We need to stay informed, active, and educated about what's going on in government. \n\nLook for books at the library, local bookstores, and also look online for information about activist groups. \n\nGet involved. Stay informed. Educate others. Don't give up.
