Royalist Party UK

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I did finally find some coverage in a reliable source, a local Northampton paper: http://www.northamptonchron.co.uk/community/from_art_to_politics_wedding_fever_s_here_1_2576178

I quote: "Northampton School for Boys (NSB) pupil Tom Harrison, aged 18, from Abington, Northampton, is so interested in the Royal Family, he and some friends have set up a new organisation called The Royalist Party. Set-up last summer it is not yet an official political party but the boys, including fellow NSB pupil Daniel Foster, aged 16 ,and Jack McDowall, aged 19, who is a student at Southampton University, hope to apply to be an official party soon. Tom said: “I have always been interested in politics and think the monarchy should have a greater role in this country. We do not believe in an absolute monarchy, but we do feel the Queen should be able to use the powers within Government which she so rightly still has today. “We do realise the importance of Parliament but we aim to break the bonds of the Government over the British Monarchy and begin to re-build this once great nation.” He added: “We obviously welcome the Royal Wedding as a chance to celebrate history being made.”" I think it is clear that this is a very minor project from some well meaning school-kids, and that it is far from being a notable political party.

 * Delete Not sufficiently notable yet. Trying very hard not to think of this Ka Faraq Gatri (talk) 22:11, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. We don't even give automatic notability to registered political parties, so this is nowhere near notability. Sorry kids, wrong website to promote yourselves. Chris Neville-Smith (talk) 08:27, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - This is a class project, not a real political party — and I'm one who holds the notability bar for political parties, their leaders, and youth sections about 2.54 cm. off the ground. Sheesh, the anti-social things they're teaching kids in school these days... Carrite (talk) 14:43, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. Non-notable, not a real party; the creator of the article is the adolescent creator of the organization. Wikipedia is not for things you and your friends made up one day. Roscelese (talk &sdot; contribs) 17:44, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
