Monday, August 30th 2010: Over 50 zombies staged the UK’s most unusual political protest this afternoon, as representatives from political party Citizens for Undead Rights and Equality – which fielded candidates in this year’s UK General Election – took their cause direct to Government.
CURE party leader Harry Cole was joined by a crowd of the undead, demanding that zombies receive the same basic rights as the living.
The crowd held placards proclaiming ‘zombies are people too’, ‘bury the coalition’ and ‘rights for the dead rising, too’.
“With the coalition treating the electorate as zombies, we thought we’d illustrate the strength of feeling by bringing our cause direct to Parliament,” said Harry Cole, leader, Citizens for Undead Rights & Equality. “We fielded candidates in four constituencies in the UK General Election, and only came last in one of them – it’s clear our manifesto already appeals. And now we’ve taken our cause to the heart of Government, we expect our manifesto to gain wider attention.”

They’re happy zombies. And you know why? Because we’ve just received word that the Citizen for Undead Rights and Equality has been approved by the Electoral Commission as an officially-recognised political party. Which means we’re able to stand for election in the forthcoming General Election. Democracy is alive and kicking, unlike those we’re seeking to help.
