This party platform, by Jón Gnarr and other party members, was written in April 2010.
1) Protection and support for Icelandic households
Families are the core of our society and are our greatest asset. The state has a duty to meet the needs of households and to campaign for the protection of families in all circumstances. Because they deserve only the best.
2) Benefits for vulnerable members of society
These people need our help and support. That’s why we offer free use of the city’s buses and free entry to all swimming pools, because everyone, even the poor or otherwise disadvantaged, should have the opportunity to move in comfort through our city after a nice clean shower.
3) An end to corruption!
We promise to fight all kinds of corruption—by indulging in it publicly and in full view of everyone.
4) Create equal rights
We all deserve only the best, no matter who we are or where we come from. We will ensure that everyone gets the best, and do our best for every individual. After all, we all play on the same team—the best!
5) More transparency!
We think it’s important that politicians always put their cards on the table so that the citizens know what’s going on. We promise to implement that concretely in our party as well.
6) Active Democracy
Democracy is great, and active democracy even better. Therefore, we are committed to it.
7) Debt relief for everyone!
On this point we will simply let the people decide—because the people themselves always know best what’s good for them.
8) City buses: pupils, students, and the disadvantaged ride free!
We can promise more cost exemptions than any other party—because we won’t actually try to keep our promises! So we could promise all kinds of things, no matter what, from free plane tickets for women to free cars for the rural population.
9) Free dental treatment for children and the disadvantaged
This is a service that, so far, doesn’t exist—so we’ll promise it along with the rest.
10) Free entrance to the swimming pool for all, free towels included!
Probably nobody can resist this offer—it’s an election promise of which we are very proud.
11) The banking crash: those responsible are now being asked to pay.
We think this too is only right.
12) Absolute gender equality
We promise absolute equality, because that is the best for everyone.
13) We also take women and the elderly seriously
Women and the elderly are in fact rarely given a proper hearing. Everyone seems to agree that these people have nothing substantial to say. We will change that.
