Page 1 of vPM: The Official Hats into the Ring thread - CANDIDATES PLEASE READ

In order to stand as an official candidate for Virtual Prime Minister, you must have at least two supporters to join your party.

Candidates have roughly one week to reply in this thread, and must fill in form below. Note that you are under no obligation to tell the truth at any time, and applicants will not be prevented from taking part providing they do not breach forum rules.


YOUR NAME:
(the name you will be standing under)

YOUR BRAND NEW POLITICAL PARTY:
(the name of the party you have created for this event)

YOUR TICKET:
(a *short* paragraph on what issues you will be standing on)


Note that all candidates must have two genuine forum members join their party, and may optionally select a campaign manager, or deputy.

But most importantly, this should be a bit of fun, abuse should be kept to an absolute minimum, language such as "My right honourable friend is juggling with spiked cabbages" is encouraged, and photographs of candidates kissing babies/soft toys/action figures welcomed. But most importantly...

...may the best vPM win!
