“Four years after sweeping the Liberals out of power and winning a majority government, Premier Hamm has called a rare summer election to try and increase the PC Party’s presence in the Legislature. Will this election work in his favour?”
“An election held in the shadow of 9/11 – and in the wake of the Federal Government’s strong stance against illegal immigration – sees John Howard stake his legacy on winning a third term.”
“The year: 3096. The place: US. The US has had major government reforms and now there is the Prime Minister of the United States. Quebecian immigrants have been flowing into New England and causing a major uprising in creating the New England Union, an independent nation. Socialism has also taken an uprising in the South and it looks like a bumpy ride for the New Democratic party, the incumbent party, and their main enemy, the Conservative party.”
“Alright, all you mad geezers! The route to becoming Prime Anarchist begins, where wrecking the Houses of Parliament gets you votes! A paralell universe where extremes are the norm, and getting into politics is a piece of cake, silliness and novelty invited! Whether it be hosting devious pranks, or where the most stupidest of stupidest people come forth, you are filthy rich, you come from Europe with some money and cheesy pop song, your a screaming rightie or leftie, your a puppet, it’s complete and utter nuts, this political scene! The biggest party, the Scumbag party, for the third time this year, are defending their Government against 11 possible contenders….”
“Blackpool, a popular seaside resort in north west England, has been Labour controlled since 1992, however despite it being billed as a holiday resort for the working classes these days, it has always had healthy pockets of Conservative support in it’s wealthy suburbs. However, some of the most deprived areas in Northern England lie in the south of the town. In the previous Council election in 2000, a Tory revival was much on cards as they gained 8 seats from Labour, however they still lie 8 seats behind Labour. The Lib Dems are hoping to replicate their previous performance, where they gained 1 seat. They hope to strengthen their strongholds and expand. Can the Tories fight back once again, or will Labour remain in total power of the council?”
“Following the death of sitting Labour MP Gwyneth Dunwoody, Crewe & Nantwich has come under blanket media coverage for a by-election fight between Labour and the Conservatives, after disappointing May local election results for the Labour Government. With the Tories sailing ahead in polls, and Gordon Brown’s disastrous U-turn on the removal of the 10p national income tax band, can they win their first Westminster by-election since 1982?”
“Since the break-up of the Soviet Union, Kanchelska has elected a Communist Party to Government since. It is isolated by former Soviet States which have now ditched Communist parties from government. It is thought this has remained because many Soviet supporting Slavs of Russian descent have immigrated here, attracted by flat taxation and a rotation policy used in the employment which tries to help the most poverty-striken. Many Russian slavs have settled in central Kanchelska, but this has caused much rife with Polish speakers, who make up most of the population, along with a Ukranian minority to the east. The country has seen tragic events such as a nuclear accident in 2001, killing and contaminating hundreds, as well as the Slavic Riots of 2007. This has made this country one of the poorest in Europe.”
“Manchester has gone through a great regeneration process in the last few years, with much aid from the city’s hosting of the 2002 Commonwealth Games. Large sections of the city centre has been demolished to make way for sleek, modern buildings with more to come. However, the east of the city is in need of repair. Other problems for the rapid development is rising crime, especially in the Moss Side and Wythenshawe areas. This is a very Labour dominated area, with the Conservatives losing their sparkle here, not having held a Manchester seat since 1987. However, with the great divide in opinion over the Iraq War, there is a strong chance the anti-iraq war Liberal Democrats can make a breakthrough here.”
“Norwich is an English city which lies to east in the Norfolk region. It is the most important city in a region which is mostly rural. Although Norwich has been slated as an old-fashioned and detached city, in recent years, it has come across as one of the most environmentally friendly cities in the UK. It has become a transition town, where it welcomes & experiments new greener ways to live. This is why the Green party have done so well in previous council elections, and this could be their best performance yet. With the fading issue of the Iraq War, this could be a golden chance for the Greens to overtake the Lib Dems in second place. Or could this council be Labour-controlled no more? Also, will the Tory revival have any effect here?”
