| Message | With the apparent demise of the UCP, almost 20% of the seats in Parliament are empty. We must rectify this situation with an early election, rather than two full years of under-representation. |

| Message | OOC: The mental image of over 112 members of Parliament just not turning up for work the next day is, I must admit, just a bit funny. Headline: "All UCP MPs Vanish, Police Decline to Initiate Manhunt!" |

I want to be endorsed obviously and turn this bad boy into a constitutional monarchy with Stafford as the ceremonial monarch. Just to say I did it.

| Message | OOC: I suggest postponing an election under the ULA have gone inactive (they are due to go inactive soon) and the ULP has had a chance to raise its profile. |
