The PP Election
So as many of your saw, I was elected as the PP of the UKPP last night. I would like to thank all of those who voted in the election, both for me and for the other candidates. I would like to thank Pannonian Nomad for helping me gather support, as well as the numerous other who offered endorsements, advice and most importantly, their votes. The results are as follows:


This coming month
As the run upto the election drew closer, I stated that electing me would see a return to the values that the UKPP stood for when in first started and that is exactly what I have planned. The policies of the UKPP can be found here. At the next party conference, we will discuss and make sure we want to keep these policies as they are, or whether the membership want to change them.

The Team this month
To support myself, I have asked a number of loyal party members to help me run the party, as I don't think one person should hold all the power.
THE EMPRAH- Vice President
EMPRAH is here to support the President and the team in the work they do.
Robin Redcap- Secretary General
Robin will manage the Party Conference and assist the president with votes within the party.
Man Friday- Councillor/Chief Whip
Man Friday will be dealing with all things congress in his position and making sure congressmen, new and old, know the ins and outs for votes and conduct.
Pannonian Nomad- Spokeman/Membership Officer
Pannonian will deal with membership issues as well as aiming to recruit new members to the party and introduce them to politics.

Baroness Margaret Thatcher has also graciously offered to act in an advisory role, and I'm sure there will be a few more advisers coming on board.

Our vision
The UKPP aims to be a party that supports new players by allowing them to help shape party policy. We strive to be transparent, favouring democratic conferences and postal balloting over executive decisions. Your in-game age, strength, wealth or connections are not what matters - your commitment, activity and desire to succeed do.

Dates for the calender
This is a list of dates for people regarding party affairs, for your chance to get involved.
Congress Elections
Party members can apply for congressional candidature the 16th and 23rd of November. I encourage anyone who is active and wants to experience congress to apply and put forward a manifesto. On the 22nd and 23rd, I will hold a vote to all members who will vote for their 1st, 2nd & 3rd preference congress votes. This is how the list will be constructed fairly. I'd like to see us put around 20 candidates forward this term and make a real push into congress.

Party Conference
Will be held at 6pm next Sunday (23/11/14) on IRC. All those who can attend are most welcome. We will be discussing our policies, congress aims this month and the finalized congress list will be released.

CP Elections
After the congress elections, from the 26th to the 29th of November, I will accept members manifestos for their CP candidature and an article will be made to contain all of them. On the 30th and 1st of December, members will have one vote each to choose who they want to represent them as CP. You will for the first time have a template for your manifesto allowing you to list endorsements, experience and other important features.

Last Month
So after many people including myself, thinking that it was the Dental Corps behind the trouble in the party, an informative post in The Real Spacimans, has shown that it was in fact their fault. It's over now, and we will be putting this behind us as a party and move on; reminding ourselves what happens when the party relies on one person to keep it going. One thing we can be thankful for, is that it has got a lot of people back involved.


To those who aren't UKPP members...
After a number of months of party turmoil, I want to welcome those who were once members of the party or look at the UKPP and wonder what we are all about.
We are returning to principle's we were founded upon. With democratic voting systems for congress, party and country presidents; the opinion of the members counts for more that the PP.
Come and see what we're about, you might be surprised.

Regards,

BaronChris
Loyal UKPP Member & PP
