Citizens of the UK, BEP party members and Evening Standard subscribers.
As President of the British Empire Party I would like to announce our support for Craig Rossiter as the next President of the eUK.
A 4 times Congressman, Field Marshall, Commanding Officer of the UK Special Forces and holder of numerous Foreign Office & Trade ministries, Craig Rossiter represents the ideal person to lead the eUK into a new era.
Why is the BEP supporting Craig?
Well as you all know, the BEP believes in Fun, Community & Conflict - given the current foreign policy situation and the numerous wars in which we now find ourselves, the eUK needs a leader that both understands the military and commands it's respect. Previous TUP incumbents have tended to have been administrators rather than leaders and we feel that given the military threat and commitments that the eUK is now facing, a man with a military background is now needed.
What next for the BEP?
Well as you will have noticed, under my leadership and as a result of the hard work of all in the BEP shadow cabinet, the BEP has reached a new record high. We have passed the 250 member mark, becoming the 4th largest party in the UK and the fastest growing. I have no intention of stopping this charge! My vision for the BEP is for us to become the dominant force in the eUK politics, but this has to happen the right way.
Recently the UKRP underwent a change of leadership - Leaving aside the merits of the individual concerned, what is a worrying sight has been the attempt to "buy" electoral success through mass-messaging, vote buying and mass-advertising. I suspect that these ruses are designed purely to win short-term gains; a political baby-boom if you will.
The BEP will not benefit from this and I am committed to a natural, long-term and strategic growth plan until we are the automatic political choice for every UK citizen looking for a fun party, committed to a strong community base and an exciting conflict-ridden military strategy.
It is as part of this plan that the BEP will be participating in the coalition supporting Craig Rossiter's bid to be UK President - in return we have been assured a number of Governmental positions that will give our party further exposure and our members increased governmental experience.
Finally I would like to welcome a number of new BEP members to the Party's private forum: tech wizards Cinizz & SpruceMagoo, Cricket maistro Sir Botham, the legendary Bob Boblo, the uber-patriot Detroit34, the economic whizkid FoC and new party members The B, Littlemoonkid, and Chris Kettle.
Also keep an eye out for an exciting new announcement regarding the BEP's military activities which Party members will be emailed about shortly.
Rule Britannia!

Craig is a great diplomat I remember him as the Irish ambassador and he was nothing but outstanding in his duties
I doubt that this is a NNA Bronze Standard article. You were probably awarded one in the past but not for this article. There are several people who put that banner on every article when it simply applies to the article it was awarded for.
@ Dan - "This Paper has been awarded a Bronze Medal by the National Newspaper Association"
It was the article that was awarded, not the paper. There were separate medals awarded for Gold, Silver or Bronze standard papers. I don't want to spam up your comments any more as the article itself is fine. Perhaps the NNA should clarify.
