[Note added 6 June: Regrettably we have had to change the timetable, as the video received from Professor Nicola Graham-Kevan had a technical problem. She is going to film another and we’ll publish it as soon as it’s available.]

Regular followers of this website are aware that neither Mike Buchanan, party leader, nor Elizabeth Hobson, Director of Communications, draw any income from the party’s income streams. We both work very long hours on behalf of men and boys (and the women who love them) so we’re unable to engage in paid employment.
We appeal to those who appreciate our work for financial support to help us meet our living expenses. We’ve set up Patreon pages for this purpose. Mike’s page is here, Elizabeth’s page is here. Thank you for your support.
