| Message | What curious Tories these Red Tories are. Apparently, 'red tory' means 'not actually a tory at all'. |

| Message | We fail to see what relevance your parties feelings towards nothing more sophisticated than the name of an opposing one, has to the issue at hand. Try to keep on topic, alrighty? I know it's tough but we can get through this. |

| Message | The point was on topic. 'Tories' are not just conservative, although slipping education standards mean some people use the words interchangably. Tories would, specifically, be those protecting tradition, especially cultural and social traditions. Typically they should be monarchists. They should also be traditionally be proponents of old-fashioned 'democracy' - (OOC: the old British model is a perfect example), where those who have a vested interest (interchangable with landowners) are accorded citizenship, and the right to be involved in politics. In other words, a party calling themselves 'tories', here - are acting in exactly the fashion that would be anathema to 'real' Tories. |

| Random fact: Particracy allows you to establish an unelected head of state like a monarch or a president-for-life, but doing this is a bit of a process. First elect a candidate with the name "." to the Head of State position. Then change your law on the "Structure of the executive branch" to "The head of state is hereditary and symbolic; the head of government chairs the cabinet" and change the "formal title of the head of state" to how you want the new head of state's title and name to appear (eg. King Percy XVI). |
