Good idea Chris. I took far to long to realise I am a Conservative, and now I find I am not represented by a Conservative Party.

In the US, there is no "conservative" party. The Republicans walked away from conservatism 15 years ago.
/Democrats will let you have abortions; Republicans will let you have firearms. Other than that, no real difference.
