Nope.
They wouldn't accept a strings attached donation like that. I think you're thinking of another minor political party.
eta: I think it was TUSC who got the election bequest but that's only a rumour. (See what I did there?
)

I'm baffled as to why they stood and didn't even put anything on their website about it. Never mind do a mail shot.
Cost them my vote the daft sods.

Socialist Alliance. Described by the BBC as 'even smaller'.
Socialist party's capitalist windfall
BBC really excelling themselves in that article. 'Capitalist windfall' cos a building they bought in the 1950s is now worth a ton of money. It's still the same building ffs.

The absence of the material on their website is fucking ridiculous. I'll be happy to mention it to them.
They did do a mailshot of a few hundred thousand leaflets - I don't have the exact figures to hand - but they targeted them on particular constituencies.

Okay, I just had a rummage around the SPGB website. They distributed 315,000 leaflets/manifestos to selected constituencies via the free mailshot (Not that many in a Euro Election constituency) and also had 185,000 of the same leaflets mailed out as an insert in the South edition of the i newspaper.

Yeah, 315k is only about coverage of 7 Parliamentary constituencies.

The dumb fucks paid to have the leaflet inserted in the 'i', when they could have targeted another few constituencies, and have it delivered for free.

Shit, no one got my Fleetwood Mac joke . . . or they were too polite to mention it.

I think the 'i' insert had already been booked before the election. They just happened to use the election leaflet cos . . . well, cos of the election.

I for one approve of polling stations in pubs, and a horse as transport home, after a dozen or so pints.

Just been and voted for the greens. Had a last minute veer to Labour but climate change is my number one worry at the moment so they got my vote. Brexit didn't come into it.

I spotted him 10 minutes later having given up leafletting and wandering home (I presume) fag in hand, faded "exit brexit" sticker peeling off on his jumper.

Anyone who votes labour in this election is basically as bad as those fence-sitting MPs in the house of parliament that they probably moan about.

The latest polls suggest that Brexit may get 34/35%. UKIP say 4%. That is a lot less than 50%. That doesn't account for pro-Brexit tory or Labour loyalists, I know but the media are banging on about how Brexit is winning. On those numbers there is not a pro-Brexit majority.
