Union of Higher Thinking

The Union of Higher Thinking (commonly abbreviated UHT) is a centre-left political party in the State of Indrala.

History
The UHT was formed in 2490, shortly following the election that year. It's leader at the time, Hugh Broome, declared the party as the 'beginning of a new leftist front in Indralan politics'.

Hugh Broome brought the party uncanny success, rising to a peak of 23% of the seats in the senate, following consistent gains in all four previous elections the party had fought.

In 2505, Mr. Broome usurped Kaito Hinatada to become president of Indrala, subsequently establishing the UHT as a powerful force both nationally and abroad.

In 2509 the UHT embarked upon an ideological crusade against intelligence agencies and nuclear weapons, ispiring hostility from opposition parties and foreign nations. Following an impassioned speech, Hugh Broome resigned as leader, sending shockwaves throughout Indralan politics.

The UHT continues to be a dominant party in the Indralan legislature, occupying approximately 17% of the seats and 5 cabinet posts.

Beliefs
The Union of Higher Thinking is commonly viewed as a centre-left, socially liberal party with consistent streaks of radical environmentalism. It's flagship policies include nationalization of energy and vehicle industries and dismantling of military and intelligence industries.

Circa 2512, the UHT remains the only Indralan political party actively promoting environmentalism.
