The spectacular news of the BEP – But who cares?
Sir Humphrey Appleby
If you want to avoid the actual article and just drool at a picture of Kiera Knightley; scroll down
😮
I don’t doubt that I was one of the many that logged on yesterday afternoon to find the eUK media NOT ablaze with articles condemning the TUP and UKRP of a suspected PTO. All in all, the “true” BEP members managed to scrap together a couple of votes for their two articles, each of which condemning probably the most realistic PP election in BEP’s short history, and each of which claiming that they’re the “true independent political voice in Britain”.
Like the 99.99% of readers, I lol’d and subscribed for entertainment.
It genuinely reminds me a bit of those right-wing lunatics that hang around Parliament every so often, harassing Politian’s to try and invade Bolivia or something. It’d be pretty epic nonetheless. It sparks a true question in our ever-fruitful British politics – what the hell do they stand for? The reinvasion of the non-existent Falkland’s? The mandatory requirement of saluting King Jeremy Clarkson I every morning? Growing moustaches that’d put Lord Kitchener to shame?
Who are the BEP? Why do they want an Empire when we only just got our Islands back?
Because they don’t know how British politics work, and genuinely believe that our militaristic capabilities can retake the empire – most of which doesn’t even turn up on the eMap. UKRP already serves the purpose of realistically representing the right wing of British politics in the House of Commons and Government, what then is the true purpose of the BEP? To be PTO’d at the people’s desire? I seriously makes me wonder if the whole thing wasn’t just a publicity stunt.
Are they just a bunch of middle class people who think that bus lanes should be removed because it allows poorer people to get to work before them?

"UKRP already serves the purpose of realistically representing the right wing of British politics " so whats the point of the TUP and PCP?? The whole point is that diffrent partys may have the same aims but have very diffrent ways about going around and getting it done and they have diffrent stances on diffrent things despite the ideological similarity.
Politics is never as straight forward as "Left-wing, Right-wing"
"Because they don’t know how British politics work, and genuinely believe that our militaristic capabilities can retake the empire"
Really? I wasn't aware that anyone in the party seriously believes that. However I see no reason why there shouldn't be a pro expansion party in eUK, even if it isn't possible to expand in the immediate future.

Incorrect. It was once, for one year, one time, a few hundred years ago. In France. Once that strait foreward.
But those days are gone...
Long gone...
Anyway... besides that.. your right.
It was in reference to the game mechanics, above all else. They describe themselves as center-right; yet what realistic new ideology to they bring to the table?

@Duke Winter - PCP provides some of the most extensive social programs in the world aiding especially new players in playing the game and strengthening the eUK. But I don't know what all the other parties do.
Horice is p ossim.
Meh. You may as well run around with your underware on your head for a better chance I may glance in your general direction. As much as I loath to comment on the articles of the current leaders I hope you, sir, will remember contacting each one of the BEP's members and offering spaces among the sardine like crush of people who are currently in the UKRP. I might as well have scrolled down for the picture was much more interesting than the article above.
What is wrong with gaining land in the future. IT IS A GOOD THING. But at the minute I agree it is not possible and should not be done, unless Ireland.
The only land worth gaining is land that has high resources on it.
It would clearly be unwise to name specific targets prior to V2 and the RM distribution & new war module are fully tested.
But given how crucial conflict and military involvement is to both boosting participation AND "acheiving" anything ingame, surely an expansionist policy is necessary? Or would you rather fight trainging wars with Latvia for the rest of your eRep life?
Regarding our military capabilities, I don't believe that the eUK is well served. It is far too top heavy with a number of very high strength individuals (our VP amongst them) who serve the country fairly well. However most serious battles are won through a having a higher quantity of average/ medium strength soldiers.
However for you to support spending the gold reserved for SF & tanking missions on helping more junior soldiers level up, is to expect turkeys to vote for Xmas!
