National Coalition Party

Non-leftist middle class and liberal wealthy such as doctors, teachers, police officers, civil servants, enterpreuners and businessmen had started to worry that their voice wouldn't be heard at national politics due to the inactivity of Kanjoran Liberal Party which had been closest to their political ideas. Hans Relander, economist at the Bank of Kanjor and member of Belfort city council, came forward and talked about social liberalism, economic conservatism and moderacy at the meeting of local politicians, representatives of enterpreuner organizations and some wealthy residents at Belfort opera hall in June 2340. National Coalition Party was formed.

Consistency of the Party and Ideology
The National Coalition Party consists from various sections of people. The supporters of the NCP can be divided into three main groups: social liberals & environmentalists of Tondola, social conservatives of Vagderra and moderate middle-class of Sovalt. There are also some farmers, clerical & office workers and service employees amongst the supporters of the NCP. The NCP is getting foothold amongst the young Kanjorians which party chairman Hans Relander is putting his hopes on at long term.

Generally speaking the NCP is moderate center-right party which promotes:


 * Market economy with limited government intervention.
 * Enterpreunership & hard work of people
 * Responsible individuality of people
 * Equality of chances for all members of the society
 * Effective combination of public & private healthcare
 * Strong emphasis on education & technology development
 * Moderate secularism, the church has no place in politics and the state has no place in religion
 * Active international cooperation, emphasizing diplomatic solutions
 * Tough measures against crime & adequate funding for police
 * Effective central government
 * Respective attitude towards nature
 * Social liberalism except in the case of death penalty
 * Discouragement of using smokes, alcohol and drugs

The policies regarding social liberal stances, unitarism and secularism are under constant debate in the NCP, causing that the party may change some of its official stances regarding these issues from time to time.

Promintent NCP members

 * Party Chairman Hans Relander, an economist at the Bank of Kanjor, belongs to moderate middle-class part of the party. He's seen as charismatic & dynamic person who often solves disputes between liberal & conservative parts of the party. He believes on social market economy, civil liberties and secularism in the society.


 * Party Vice Chairman Gerald Price, director of art museum, is a member of social liberal wing of the NCP. He's a close ally of Relander and offered his support at the formation of party policies to socially liberal base instead of social conservative. Price is somewhat controversial figure in the NCP: liberals see him as great preacher of civil rights & individuality, conservatives as the spokesperson of leftist wing of the party and morally "corrupted".


 * Party Secretary Wesley Freisler, wealthy farmer from Vagderra, is part of social conservative group of the party. Vice Chairman Gerald Price is his arch enemy in the party and he constantly debates with him about party's stances in social issues. Freisler promotes free market economy, hard means towards crime and more visible part of religion in the society.

Future of the party
The NCP haven't yet fully activated its party machinery for the coming elections at April 2341, but it has already made bills for the Senate varying from the restriction of alcohol sale to reduction of luxury good tax. The greatest challenges for the NCP is to get visibility in the media controlled by big parties and and activate potential NCP electorate to poll stations.
