Jhorlin
Judging by the forum response, it seems that this will likely be a volatile article. However, it is in the interests of our democratic process that I stand, for you, as a candidate for The Unity Party President on June 15th. The primary reason that I stand, is so that we might stand together, on the issue of Parliamentary Accountability.

Strength in Unity
Now, more than ever, this is true. The outgoing Party President, Dan Moir, is trying to block my bid in every possible way. This lack of support from the party elite means that now more than ever, I need to rely on your support: the voting members. As a party, TUP believes in shunning the elite and voting for what is right: I hope that June 15th is no exception.
Pensive offers an impressive CV - a background of many different areas. However, I offer a wealth of experience myself, which directly counters Pensive in many regards. For example, Pensive was Minister of Rations for 4 days until I assumed his duties, due to his inactivity. Pensive also commonly cites that he was Minister of Defence, a post which I now hold.
More information about my eRepublik career is available on my Wiki page.
On the Other Hand
There has been a lot of criticism of myself due to my move from the United Kingdom Reform Party. I might add, one of the most successful TUP Party Presidents was an immigrant from the UKRP, and any such criticism is unfair.
In fact, I believe that the breadth of experience I offer from politics is invaluable to The Unity Party, as it gives me a unique insight into how the right-wing parties operate, that other candidates cannot offer.
Unity in the Commons
I feel that the position adopted by members of the party in abolishing the House of Lords is dangerous. In the past months, due to their satisfaction with having input in the House of Lords, the political right has been less inclined to push members through for congressional elections. I worry that abolishing the House of Lords will necessitate tougher competition for each seat, which can only serve to damage our party.
I might add that the House of Lords is an advisory body, and has no real power other than to delay votes. Currently, this means that we can pass what we want through the Parliamentary system, without having to worry too much. By abolishing the Lords, we risk our majority in the Commons.
Much like Pensive, I also believe that the target of 20 seats in the House of Commons next month is achievable. The key, as always in this fortress London age, is in mobile voting, which relies on you: the voting public.
The Unity Party - A Bastion of Legitimacy
Pensive, Iain Keers and Dan Moir all seem to seek to undermine what The Unity Party stands for. In the last few weeks, for those who have not been following the forums, a series of bills have been tossed back and forth, to try to abolish the House of Lords without the required supermajority. These bills try to undermine our legal system, and put our party into disrepute.
The House of Lords Amendment Acts, as they are passed, undermine the good standing otherwise attributed to The Unity Party.
Accordingly, I promise to make every effort to repeal these illegal acts, and instead propose a repeal of the House of Lords Act. I believe that if this is to be done, it's to be done on a fair vote.

Strength in kicking your ass.
Pensive is the Unity Party's official candidate, VOTE PENSIVE.
So I heard Jhorlin's p funky
I am voting PENSIVE ON JUNE 15
SHAME on Jhorlin who want to Pto TUP, He is angry because he has not been accepted as lord.
Pensive is our Official candidate !!!! Don't vote for Jhorlin, he is the Vice president of UKRP
I lol'd, you are such a hypocrite.
You say Stregth In Unity and then state DanMoir is not upholding the motto by going against you. He is, because the whole of TUP are against you to make sure you do not succeed in your UNDEMOCRATIC attempt.
Vote Pensive for PP
7 comments 51 votes and rising, org voting much?
Vote Jhorlin for TUP PP or die!!
That has all been dealt with on the forums, there's no need to go over it twice.
You didn't really state why you had decided to move from UKRP to the TUP (other than the abolition of the House of Lords) and you havent addressed the fact that it looks like an attempt at a PTO.
Smells fishy.
Allow me to be the first to welcome you to the TUP though 😃
I would say there's everyneed to go over it twice, if you wish to secure votes
Jhorlin for TUP PP! He will rock your socks off!
UKRP want to PTO TUP : Save TUP and VOTE PENSIVE ON JUNE 15
This is in no way UKRP endorsed. Jhorlin is emphasising the importance of the House of Lords through an individual effort.
It is unfair to claim UKRP is PTOing TUP.
Who is endorsing it?
Because this has been org voted 😒
Unfair, but the IainKeers fan club is desperate, and will try anything.
The UKRP does not support Jhorlin in any way. But Jhorlin is a free man and can run for wathever he want. And people can vote for whoever they want
I don't care for the attempt to inject a right wing agenda into the TUP, we are proud of what we stand for and should fight against this PTO attempt. Therefore, I shall be voting for our official candidate, Pensive. 🙂
If all of Damian Jacob Tamir Jager brothers vote against you Jhorlin you won't stand a chance.
Horice 😛
"For example, Pensive was Minister of Rations for 4 days until I assumed his duties, due to his inactivity."
Nice smear campaign here.
I had explained in my last congress manifesto that I was ill due to dental work being needed and being in pain every day and night for almost a week - if you have ever had pain in a wisdom tooth you will know how much it hurts! I was drugged on the strongest painkillers available over the counter and still could only sleep for two hours a night. I had thought my problems would have been resolved for before the new term as it had flared before JamesW's election but my dentist advised me otherwise and I thought it was unfair to hold onto the post because I wouldn't be able to put full time into the post, so with a heavy heart I requested JamesW to resign my cabinet post and it was accepted. I cooperated with you fully and posted all plans I had created as per JamesW's request.
Your health is more important than ANY game.

tl;dr: PTO
I'm sorry, but either RRS is org voting this or UKRP
Really professional to abuse your position by deleting the Ministry of Defence article that was in the top 5 (MoD's job is to make sure there is an article in the top 5 all the time; even if there is no wars to fight in as it can be edited with correct orders later) Worst still you did it in order to further your own article!
You are a disgrace to the military and the eUK.
Vote Pensive on June 15th: the ONLY official candidate.
Vote PENSIVE!!! The Offical Candidate! For the TUP!
Vote Pensive not this traitor !
People keep saying that TUP is against Jhorlin. How democratic, claiming to speak for your party.
Shut up and let the votes decide.
Jhorlin, you imbecile. By attempting this PTO, you've not only ensured your speedyy ejection from politics but a backlash on the party you obviously support.
