The Tax Payers’ Alliance Political Trumps was first produced in 2007. Political figures of the time with Labour, Conservative, Lib Dem and minor parties are all represented. The Trumps game consists of playing a card with a higher rating on one of the six types of skill or experience listed on each card until one player has no more cards. Alternatively, the cards can be used as a normal pack. The Tax Payers’ Alliance Mission Statement, which is summarised on an extra card included in the pack, can also be read on their website: www.taxpayersalliance.com►

View ArticlesI have adored playing cards since before I was seven years old, and was brought up on packs of Waddington's No 1. As a child I was fascinated by the pictures of the court cards.
Over the next fifty years I was seduced by the artwork in Piatnik's packs and became a collector of playing cards.
Seeking more information about various unidentified packs I discovered the World of Playing Cards website and became an enthusiastic contributor researching and documenting different packs of cards.
I describe my self as a playing card archaeologist, using detective work to identify and date obscure packs of cards discovered in old houses, flea markets and car boot sales.
