Welcome

On Thursday 3rd May 2007, voters across Scotland went to the polls to elect a new Parliament in Holyrood.

This is the first time the Christian Peoples Alliance has run candidates in Scotland and we say thank you to everyone who trusted us with their vote.

Across Scotland, 14,745 people placed us First on the regional lists. Although this was not enough to win a seat, it is a good start as we look to establish Christian Democracy in Scotland and prepare for European elections.

We did not have the resources of other parties. But we had excellent candidates, sound policies and the goodwill of many people across Scotland.

Our campaign highlighted issues which the secular parties refused to address - the Christian Democratic conviction that children need a father and a mother, not politically-correct platitudes; that marriage must be recognised as the best place for children to grow into happy and secure individuals and that Christianity is needed for a free and open society to flourish. We highlighted opposition to Trident, the Iraq war and other anti-life policies.

Across Europe, Christian Democracy is a successful and established fact, with parties like ours playing an important part in coalition government. It is important to CPA Scotland to have the backing of Christians in politics across the rest of our continent.

The Christian Peoples Alliance will continue to fight for all families. Our aim is to renew the Christian foundations of our culture and democracy. We now invite you to join with us as we look to the future.
