Coburan Reform Party

The Coburan Reform Party (Formerly the Crazy Ruairi Party) The Coburan Reform Party is a Coburan political party. It is a liberal party with strong enviromental protection policy and was founded in 2373

History

The CRP weas founded in 2373 by Joseph Philips ( Crazy Joe ), a wealthy Tokundian businessperson. The party was set up to represent the Centrist voters as Crazy Joe felt that these voters were not recieving adequate representation in the Assembly. The partys oringinal base was Tokundi.

In 2381, Crazy Joe was elected Head of State, he had a very succesful term as President, enacting many reforms and helping to heal the divides in Coburan society left by the dissolution of the NCL and the subsequent CRA terrorist campaign.

Crazy Joe did not stand for re-election in 2385, a tradition that every subsequent CRP HoS has honoured.

In 2406, Trevor O'Dwyer was elected Chancellor and led a campaign of reform: he diminshed the size of the local governments, reformed education, raised Health and Education spending to record heights, reformed the tax system and presided over a booming economy.

In 2409 he was re-elected in a landslide as Chancellor, with coalition recieving a combined 60% of the vote and a 60 seat majority. He resigned in 2412 and Gary Whitehall was elected as Chancellor. However, the fierce leadership challenege damaged the government and the coalition lost power in the 2413 election very narrowly.

But in 2417 the coalition was back with the CRP a junior partner. In 2425, Emma Maguire was elected Chancellor and led a succesful term, she reformed education and the National Health service and the tax system, she refused to stand for re-election in 2429 due to ill health. The coalition was divided without her leadership and lost the next election.

For the next few decades the party was out of government except for a breif period in 2447-2449

The Paul Hackman years

In 2475, Paul Hackman was elected as leader of the party and reformed the party wholesale. He changed the party line on Devolution and shifted the party slighly more to the right.

Every successor of Paul Hackman has followed this same line and his legacvy within the CRP can still be felt today.
