I had to delete an reprint because of insulting comments from the opposition, I hope this does not happen again. They got as far as a Godwin for calling me Hitler a numerous amount of times, this of course has been remported to admins. The fear of a free election played fair seems to scare them.
Motivations
I don't need to remind people all that I have done for the SDP. When I moved in there were only four members, when I left our electorate was three times the seize it was at the last Presidential election. We had 188 members. I never really wanted to be party president forever, but with the current decline of the party's electorate, membership, and a complete lack of innovation force me to run again and get the party back on the right tracks.
Voting for people like Rory Winterbourne, Maddog Jones and Blandman will only make things worse, because they plan to renew party operations to the few people that are responsable for this decline. Some might say the decline was my fault, it seems my only fault was to hand them over absolute control over the party.
Freedom of expression is at an all time low, the court seems to be inoperationnal because some people erase or modify certain statements. Democracy is also at an all time low, over half of our electorate did not want to see Betafoxtrot as our National President.
I might start on a strange sentence. My eLife's ambition isn't to run and win elections. When I set up the Social Democrat Party from the bottom to the top 5 in under a month. A new hope was born for many eUK citizens and the party was promissed to a good future.
Why am I running again ? Not for the love of power, Party President is a real job where you get pushed around a lot, by your party members but also by public opinion and senior politicians. I am running again because I don't want to see this party go to waste, hijacked by private ambitions and sunk. When you have removed the "Social" aspect and "
We are facing a really catastrophy, most of the embryonic structures I was starting to set up at the end of my last term haven't evolved since. There has been no interest into improving structure to get the party forwards. A few experience players have joined to bring their "superior knowledge" of party management, and we are yet to see anything interesting.
We are facing a double catastrophy, and the warning signs are all there. I left the party with 188 members, we now have around 177. It took one month to recruit 188, but two months drop members. There has been a decline in our membership that can't be denied.
Our electorate is fading. When we ran supporting PCP in Elbanaans campaign the two parties got 200 votes in may. Alone in the following Congressionnal elections we got 136 votes for the candidates that got in. A month later, we barely got 56 votes. Losing half our Congress members...
The party has lost it's soul, and we have paid the toll for that. The feedback from the population is eloquent, the SDP is falling as fast as it appeared.
We need to renew with our "tradition" A new citizens party for new citizens.
Measures that will be taken upon election.
-Have you noticed ? In the last term, Rory Winterbourne initiated no assistance to party members concerning V2 ? That is something I would have done, and I think it is the minimum we can do, as a New party founded by new players for new players and not the corrupt "old players favour old players" set up by Maddog and Rory. I think we should really mobilize a lot of time and effort for V2 guides, I will personally run this programme, and put in a lot of time towards it.
The housing programme was abandonned, the mentoring programme was abandonned, the party company programme offering 0.48GBP an hour for each party member was abandonned... There is nothing left of all these great schemes that helped the party prosper !
-Favouring inside talent over people that simply turn up for the cake ! I will put those who have put in a lot of constructive effort into the party, especially those that helped building it up, in pole position to be running for the front roles.
-seperate Party functions from govermental functions people running the party should not be involved in government. A Nation is run is the best interests of all, not in the interests of a group. The same thing applies for a party, the party should not exist just for a few to get elected but in the interest of all it's members. You can not be a party exectutive and a government executive, since you can not favour a group over another. I'm all for SDP members to get involved in government work, but they should seperate their national ambitions from party ambitions.
-an instauration of an Electoral team to diminish individual ambition and the "me for Congress" attitude. Each member willing to run for Congress will have to prove he is a usefull asset to the party and the country through his work. If it is recruiting, tutoring, mailing. Every candidate will have to show he or she puts the party, it's members and the citizens of this country first. Every candidate will have to had worked once on the elections before he can run. No more rewards without merits. This will be concrete because we will set up an HQ organization to fund and operate election campaigns.
-Creating an Companionship. More experienced players will have to accompany the newest members and the newest citizens, guiding them and giving them advice. Every new citizen accpeting a tutor will get a free Q1 weapon a day, and every tutor can get a Q1 weapon off the party companies for 1 GBP per weapon per student.
Why ? Because helping new citizens is a duty that every SDP members owes to himself and the party. Also the eUK has a lower population than other countries. Between 80 and 90% of new citizens give up. What we don't have in quantity we have to make up in quality. It will also let us cash in on any eventual babyboom.
-Creating an inner liaison inside the party. Too many members feel ignored in this party that is supposed to be there for them. They only get messages when Congress elections come up asking for their vote. We need to get a constant feedback from our members, we need to address their problems and help them out if we can. The HQ organization will have to keep in contact with members outside of major elections to collect our members impressions, problems and wishes for the party, the country and the future.
-A return to recruiting and helping new citizens out. We are a grassroots movement, let's not forget our origins because of one or two Congress mandates. The new ambition will be to aim for the third slot, and get close to 300 members.
-No CP candidate for the SDP UNTIL we have a corps of policies.
-At last, fixing our electoral alliances. We are a centre-left party. This won't change. We will establish alliances with Spectrum, PCP and TUP. For those that get into Congress, we need to get some measures that we hold dear become reality.
-A clear out of the forum, and a more strict management of the usergroup. Some people aren't in the party spirit, others are in the usergroup without being in the party... I could name a few people that would need to go if they can't learn from their mistakes. I can name them fairly quickly, Kaiskais for having putting his personnal ambition above the benefit of the party and Rory Winterbourne for his complete mismanagment of the party.
-Enact a new electoral code to make sure nobody stagnates in a mandate forever, thus giving new citizens and members their chance to get into the spotlight.
Why would SDP members go on with this ?
All those with ambitions will have to use their energies towords improving the party, and make sure our candidates have REALLY got what it take to improve the lives of eUK citizens.
A return to a higher turnout of active members on the forum will help us elaborate policies, find new ideas and bring new life to a failing party.
As Party President, if I'm elected, I pledge not to run for Congress or for Country Presidency. I'll invest all my efforts as I did in my previous term for the party, and running the party for it's members and for the country.
I fear that a new establishment has installed itself at the head of the party, and is repeating the same mistakes that lead people away from traditionnal parties.
Party Cabinet
To get all this done there will be a concrete party cabinet with dedicated SDP members wanting to get the job done.
The party president will be elected. If I win it will be me.

THE SDP needs you to vote for Melophore !

Comments
Everybody, Melophore is a dangerous far-right wing PTOer who wishes to establish a dictatorship in the eUK.
All the other candidates for SDP PP are agreed that you must NOT vote for him.
He removed his other article because we exposed the truth on the comments.
DO NOT VOTE FOR MELOPHORE.
Melophore has never been in a far-right party, he has spent all his career building up the SDP.
Melophore also launched the SDP housing programme that housed all the SDP members that asked for housing, he created three heamth clinics that handed out over a thousand gifts over the course of the last three months, that is around 1000 helthpoints FREE OF CHARGE. He also offered jobs at higher than market wages to SDP members.
All this your friends in your future cabinet decided to close down.
Of course other candidates don't want you to vote for him, because they want people to vote for them !
Please have a bit of decency Maddog. May I remind you that you already got a ban for insulting Melophore's articles in one comment. I have a screener to prove this. So keep your calm.
Monsieur Melophore was very active to aid the French resistance when the country was occupied, offering exile and weapons to resitance troops.
It is a shame that Monsieur Jones has to make up such nonsense for votes !
Could everybody please note that the two above comments are from Melophores organisation accounts - he is posting under them to make it appear as though he support from anybody at all.
Oh and Melophore, as for you aiding the French resistance - I got a Resistance Hero medal for freeing my fellow Celtic region of Brittany.
You really think you aid your failing credibility by deleting articles just because there are *valid* comments questioning the contents of the article? *LOL*
The ONLY people who will vote for you are the ones whose votes you BUY with houses and jobs in YOUR orgs.
Anyone interested in DEMOCRACY will give you a really wide berth and vote for one of the democratic ones 🙂
Hai, Melophore? You wont be establishing an alliance with Spectrum 'cause Spectrum dont exist. Write an actual manifesto instead of copy and paste, and then we'll talk.
They are afraid of fair rule, they are afraid that there long line of corrupt imbaciles won't be PP... They support PTOS... This is just what eUK is run by these days this is whats become of us..
SDP = Melophore = possibly the only last best hope of SDP
@sirniven: agreed
You delete an article thus suppressing people's free speech and then try to claim that you are the victim?
Seemingly free speech is permitted only if you agree with melophore...
it makes the party look even worse than it is, seeing us fight in the comments. thats probily why he did it
Vote Melophore- because freedom of speech is over-rated and theft is fun.
Remember when you vote, only Melophore will destroy the reputation of the SDP today.
This is a public election campaign (not completely) supported by Melophore (but he's such a hypocrite he'll probably be using this in his adds tomorrow).
I would tend to agree with that rather dashing mister Andalas and I'm most certainly a completely different person. Watch me speak in English- Tally ho, pip pip, up and at them.
Jolly good fun.
"Remember when you vote, only Melophore will destroy the reputation of the SDP today."
how can you say that he was the person that got the SDP a reputation in the first place!
True enough, without me there would be no SDP, and I gave chances to people like Artela to get into Congress despite the fact she hadn't been playing for more than 30 days. Artela got a lot, and sold herself off because she has greater interests.
I remember Daniel de Vito asking for help with TSP at the time, help I provided. He seems to have forgotten all this...
Other people are acuusing people of theft, like Andalas. What did I steal ?
Maybe stuff was stolen from me when my account was hacked.
How strange is it, when you decide to give others a chance, to see you old friends turn on you ?
I feel rather sorry for those that have to resort to pety remarks because they have to gain in my defeat.
[Quote🙂 True enough, without me there would be no SDP, and I gave chances to people like Artela to get into Congress despite the fact she hadn't been playing for more than 30 days. Artela got a lot, and sold herself off because she has greater interests. [end Quote]
And there we go with the melophore lies again *LOL*. I have supported the PARTY through thick and thin and when I won my last congress seat I donated nearly all that gold to the PARTY.
My heinous "crime" would appear to be putting the PARTY and DEMOCRACY above melophore...
"I remember Daniel de Vito asking for help with TSP at the time, help I provided. He seems to have forgotten all this.."
Last time I challenged this I chose the charitable route and said it was your memory that was at fault. The lie has been repeated so I'm wondering if you are as honest as your portray yourself to be.
If you can quote me one true example of me ever writing to you requesting your help then I'll give you 100 gold and work in one of your labour camps for free for a week.
It would be of more interest to the world if you could please explain why you suppressed free speech rather than repeat tired old lies.
I thought Artela was in a different party when elected, then came to SDP... so how did you give Artela the chance to get into congress when she was already in congress to begin with?
Regardless, if there were bad comments in the other article then I wish you had not deleted it. I learned the hard way once that it is better to just reprint the article, but leave the old one so people can see the bad comments. If there were really bad comments I tend to read them and go against the people running attacks, so you would have been more likely to win more support from me if I had been able to read the article and comments.
But I am sorry to say Melophore, that this article does little to get you support from anyone. Perhaps next time you will heed my advice to rise above the fray and say nothing bad about your political foes... in most cases if they really are doing you wrong and saying bad things about you they cannot back up, most of us are smart enough to see who is attacking and smearing, and who is refusing to stoop to that level and is instead running a purely positive classy campaign.
so your in control of the SDP estate org.I assume when a PP is elected and it isnt yourself I do assume that this org will be given back to to the SDP party ?

Read that 🙂
No, it isn't given back because it is going to change name soon. It is private property. Get your facts right Nathan. Iinvested 360 gold in those companies, I'm not going to give them away for free... The only reason you're on at that is you dream on putting your hands on that money for yourself.
To Ross, I sneeked Artela into TRS so she could get into Congress, I gave all her voters tickets.
To DANIEL DE VITO, you owe me 100 gold, because I sent you a PM with evidence that you did send me TSP members. I see no point denying you got help to please your friends.
So you delete comments and articles? o.O
Why not just think before you post?
Melo... I voted for her and used my own tickets as I recall, so you might have given most of her voters tickets, but not all.
Also, I did not put as much gold into those companies as you, but I did put a lot in. If they are not going to stay in SDP, then I would like you to buy out my share.
Best of luck tomorrow Melo o/
@Eric: I also funded some of the moving tickets myself for that first election and gave wellness compensation to friends who moved to vote 🙂 I will back melophore up on the point that he did give some assistance because we both thought at the time that it would be good for the SDP, but it was not single-handedly all his own work, and I did have voters from other places (including another small party).
voted. Also, check out my newspaper and tell me if you like it- sub/vote/comment welcomed 🙂
Here we go again why the hell did I stop running for PP with all this...
hmm good question
I took a step back and thought I would not want to lose myself in the murky world of eUK Politics
no in all fairness I decided it would be pointless running also irl issues
Again Melophore I sent nobody to you for help.
I am much more interested in why you would choose to delete an article, thus suppressing the free speech of those who made comments and then claim your own rights to the same freedom are being affected.
Cyan, read the comments here and then read through the comments on every other SDP PP manifesto. This is the only one that has stirred things up because Melophore is openly censuring people and abusing SDP orgs (that he has stolen) to please his megalomania. He's abused powers on IRC to silence the PP and myself. He's produced newspapers full of libel and lies against the party and he's claimed that if he gets control of the party forum user group he is going to ban people who speak out against him.
Dictatorship in the eUK, Melophore be thy name.
"No, it isn't given back because it is going to change name soon. It is private property. Get your facts right Nathan. Iinvested 360 gold in those companies, I'm not going to give them away for free... The only reason you're on at that is you dream on putting your hands on that money for yourself."
Wrong again.
its actually SDP property hence the name SDP.One the only reason I mentioned it was becuase of the lies that the org posted above and lets behonest the only person that supports you is you.
Nathan, if Melophore set up the orgs/companies then they are his regardless of the SDP name.
voted + subbed. I have a newspaper as well. Sub/vote/comment are appreciated 🙂
Maybe Eadie but in his article he moans about the PP not continuing his housing programme but Melophore won;t give the PP the orgs lmao. Bit of lieing going on there. Im also sure Melophore gave tthe orgs to the party and then when he didn't run for PP and didn't like who won it he took them.
I've only donated 1g to my party - not much, but I'd never claim ownership of anything I donate because that would be lending, not donating.
Some of my friends are SDP, and they don't need this kind of grief while trying to get to grips with V2 and IMO if Melophore genuinely cared for SDP voters he wouldn't be pulling this kind of stunt here. It makes everyone involved look daft.
Be a man about this, Melophore raise above it!
