Mock Presidential Race pt. 2
Hello! Back again with another mock presidential race!
This one will share a lot of things with the first version however, this one will be a race for the Prime Minister of The United Kingdom!
Due to the rather recent resigning of David Cameron, I thought it would be a good country. Many of you suggested we should do a race for a different country! So here we go!
Same rules apply as the last race, (reference thread "Mock Presidential Race" in "off topic")
However you will be running for Prime Minister of the United Kingdom!
The following political parties in the race are the following,
PartyPolitical PositionLeader
| Conservative and Unionist Party | Centre-right | David Cameron |
| Labour Party | Centre-left | Jeremy Corbyn |
| Scottish National Party | Centre-left | Nicola Sturgeon |
| Liberal Democrats | Centre | Tim Farron |
Have fun! Remember candidates can respectfully debate each other!
Poll for party representatives will end July 15th!
After that, the winners of each party will move on to the PM race!
Everybody can vote, and your vote can be changed at anytime! Just remember to use that feature responsibly!
I'm your host Vex03,
- Let's get RIOOOGHHTT into the debates!
Make America Great Again.

Debatable, but I don't know too much about this time period. Definitely in 1984.Pablo22510 wrote:

I doubt the 60's as well. The Soyuz started up at this time.

I do, trust me. It was from the 60s onwards where the Soviet economy began to fall back.Quasi-duck wrote:

It was ficticious, invented by a novelist, but apparently based on true stuff. Angleton's great obsession (apart from the mole inside the CIA) was that the USSR was mounting a massive economical attack on the USA.Quasi-duck wrote:

I never said it was bad. Simply that a book, from what I googled was written in the late 1800's, has very little bearing on this.Pablo22510 wrote:

"Kholstomer", also translated as "Strider", is one of the most striking stories in Russian literature. It was started by Leo Tolstoy in 1863 and left unfinished until 1886, when it was reworked and published as "Kholstomer: The Story of a Horse"
