Christian Party

The Christian Party is a British Christian conservative political party. The party has its origins in the organisation Operation Christian Vote, which was formed in 2004. It is led by the Rev. George Hargreaves, a former popular music producer. The party is organised in Scotland as the Scottish Christian Party and in Wales as the Welsh Christian Party.

## Electoral success[edit]

In the 2008 elections for the Greater London assembly, the Christian Party, in alliance with the Christian Peoples Alliance, came sixth of a field of sixteen parties, narrowly missing out on an assembly seat. It plans to run candidates for the European Parliament elections 2009, calling for a referendum on British membership of the European Union.
