Iran is not going to be invaded by the UK, social list subscribes already now there is a single issue party to stop that, with several other parties against. There is however no party actively supporting FLOSS in East Anglia. Votes for a Linux Party would show support for a positive progressive idea, in an election filled with negativeaty.

"Our World Our Say was founded in response to the Iraq war with the aim of giving people a voice over world changing issues. We have since grown into a movement with over 60,000 people taking part in our campaigns.
Our Vision of a world in which ordinary people have real power over decisions that affect our future.
Our Mission: in a world where politicians are too influenced by large companies, media magnates and the President of the United States.
Our World Our Say seeks to return Power to ordinary people by helping them find hteir political voice. By using modern technology, we are building a community that can influence decision makers as global conflict, human rights the future of the environment and defending democratic values."
Note the "Mission" section would seem to cover the current software Patent situation neatly, I've written to ask what they intend to do, I'll let you know their reply.
On the other hand as Ipswich always used to be a few hundred, sometimes less thatn two hundered either way that would seem to be the obvious target. I don't think you'd/we'd win though just possibly get one of the other candidatez in by taking away votes.

Can you fix your email client please? I originally thought KMail (which is what your headers claim you're using) was broken, but there are other ALUGers using it without breaking threads. It's much easier to read lists when associated posts are kept together in my experience.

It's been pointed out to you that you might be reading via a digest, in which case at least one of the digest options removes message ids. Is there any chance you'd consider switching to a MIME based digest (which I think should preserve a Message-Id header) or individual posts?
