PP Report Week 2 - Darkmantle

The last week for the UKRP has been a hectic one, due to many people not being around as much due to their real life issues, myself included. My laptop broke, family issues, I was ill, it was quite a bad week. But now we can get back on track


Congress Elections

This month was very good for us, we reclaimed the usual 10 seats plus 2 on top! We now have 12 strong positions in Congress, and are back as the second-biggest party in the eUK. I would like to thank Jhorlin for his hard work on the day, and everyone who voted for us.

Congratulations to:

East Midlands - Detroit34
East of England - TonyEvans
London - Craig Rossiter and JerryGFL
North East - Jhorlin
North West - Master Hofkens
Northern Ireland - Certacito
Scotland - Darkmantle
South East - Steve Steinbeck
Wales - Drobinson09
West Midlands - Margaret H Thatcher
Yorkshire & Humberside - Sir Humphrey Appleby


Country President Elections

At first we were running Craig Rossiter for CP, but he had to drop out due to real life pressures. Therefore the UKRP support is currently divided, but as it is now too late, we cannot support anybody in-game and will stay officially neutral. So we are asking all members to vote for whoever they want, and we wish the best of luck to all candidates.


UKRP Company

Discussions are underway to start a UKRP company, one that will help bring some money into the party to support the members, as well as to make products to help support the newer members. We believe in helping those around us, and since it is the members that make the party what it is, helping them should be a good priority for us.


Recruitment Campaign

We are going to start a full blown recruitment campaign within the next few days, one that aims to bring back some elder members, as well as attract new members into our fold. This will be led by Sir Humphrey Appleby as our Communications Administrator, and overseen by myself.

Here are a few quotes about why members have joined our party in the past:

"It was strange to see myself joining UKRP, considering the old reputation as the sheep party, but, after a moment or two, I knew it wouldn't be such a bad idea. After all, with so many new members the UKRP is effectively a progressive party with history." - Patrick Reckitt

"I choose UKRP over half a year ago simply because they amplified my own views rather than branded their own collective ideals on me. Both the party and I adapted to each other, creating by far the best community I could have hoped for." - Sir Humphrey Appleby

"I joined the UKRP as my first party and only 2 months ago. I chose the UKRP because it valued its members views and allows free voting, not using the party whip to get its way. I am pleased that the party had nearly doubled its Congress members in one month. UKRP the party to be associated with!!" - Kinad

"Mais, la souris est en dessous la table, le chat est sur la chaise et le singe est… est… le singe est disparu. Ah, le singe… maintenant… regarde. Il est sur une bicyclette. Il joue au banjo. Et il fume une pipe. Maintenant, il arrête… Il lit un journal, il a on journal…" - Raziel Darkheart


Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I hope you enjoy seeing how the UKRP improves over the course of the month.
