A POLITICAL party promising free kegs of beer and public booze fountains has soared to third in the polls in Austria.Austria's Beer Party — which outlandishly plans to give each adult a 90-pint barrel of free alcohol a month — has soared to third in the pollsPolls for Vienna’s state elections put the party third with a record-high 12 per cent of the vote.
The group was set up as a joke in 2015 by Dominik Wlazny, the singer for Austrian punk band Turbobier. But he shocked pundits by finishing third in Austria’s presidential election last year, winning 337,000 votes. Wlazny, 36, a former doctor, said the party was inspired by the lyrics to one of his own songs, Bierpartei, which said: “If you like to be fat and drink a lot every day, then vote for us now, the Beer Party.”
