Natural Law

The Natural Law Party also contested Euro-elections in the nineties, and I saw them out campaigning for the German national elections a while back. Someone told me that they were actually trying to contest every seat in every election across Europe.

This makes them unique in being the only 'political' party anywhere to campaign repeatedly with the same policy. Every other party's candidates have a tendency to focus on whatever is the local issue, and express personal views that may or may not be in accordance with the official line.

Apparently when the Maharishi announced his intention to enter politics one of his advisors asked "Where is all the money to pay for this going to come from?"

Answer: "From wherever the money is now."
