We need a new party, the Progressionist party, following the ideals of Progressionism. It's my own ideology basically it entails:
In order for a country to make progress, the people need to be educated. This means all education, including University, must be free. Also unemployment must be eradicated, inastead of Dole, you will simply be allocated a job and given a wage like everyone else.

I'm with you on the education bit, but a healthy level of unemployment is essential for a growing economy. Companies would have to offer increasingly ridiculous sums of money to attract people from their current job into a new one, a situation that would be totally unsustainable.

The problem is not that they are too centrist. The problem is that they are all morons.

True.
The reason Labour is winning the elections is that its Ideology is supported by the masses, but its policies benefit the Middle Class.
We need a party that STICKS to its ideology.

Rigidity isn't necessarily a good thing. Personally I'm not a big fan of ideologies. I think they're too idealistic and not pragmatic enough.

Why?
It's much more important that a Government follows the wishes of the people it is elected to represent than the ideology of a minority. Ideological politics is only a good thing as long as it's your ideology they're promoting.
We need a proper right-wing party instead of this leftist crap.
The UK GOP. :D

Don't worry, the Conservative Party of David Cameron will show its true colours in 18 months time, when the policy commissions announce their findings.
If you're worried about all the centrist mush that's coming out of the Conservative Party at the moment, have no fear. It's not like they mean it! And how many people want third world poverty to continue...

Lol - yuh, because 3rd world poverty is essentially the responsibility of the Conservative party. Rich people must repent.

I don't much care about left or right wing, I mostly just want to be left alone by the government. Sadly, all the parties we have are too authoritarian. Especially Labour...

You've already got UKIP, the BNP and erm...Respect.
Plus, your contention that Weimar ultimately failed because it was 'too centrist' is simplistic in the extreme.
The centre ground is presently the smart ground, just accept it.
