A new political party has entered the race in the Brighton Pavilion ward. Citizens for Undead Rights and Equality candidate Soraya Anne Kara faces Leo Atreides (No party listed), Nigel David Carter (UKIP), Ian Fyvie (Socialist Labour), Caroline Lucas (Green Party), Berni Millam (Liberal Democrats), Nancy Platts (Labour Party) and Charlotte Vere (Conservative) in the race for the seat.
The CURE manifesto pledges
* To give the undead equal rights to the living
* To make cemeteries more comfortable for its inhabitants
* To invest in the discovery of a cure for Zombie bites
* To increase the minimum statutory retirement age to beyond death
* To permit the marriage of living and the undead
They are also fielding 6 other candidates for the May 6th election. We wish them the best of luck.

Undead? Such a shame they couldn't find an acronym to incorporate the preferable 'Differently Alive'.
(Apologies to Terry Pratchett)
Not Leto Atreides, then?
It will be Screaming Lord Sutch from beyond the grave, obviously.
"Kara faces Leo Atreides (No party listed).."
*boggle*
Hmmmm - has anyone considered that whilst it is admirable to give the undead a better quality of ... life(?), there is definitely a point to raise about letting them vote in the first place. It would appear that they vote in large numbers for the 'big' parties no matter what they've been up to.... if this isn't evidence of the size of the 'undead' population in this country then I don't know what is! Sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind, so removing the right for them to vote could cure a great number of ills - both for the UK and perhaps the world at large?!!
