Lakis Voulis



Lakis Voulis became the first leader of the New Alliance, a political party in Wantuni, in December 3501.

Early life and activism
Voulis was born in 3452, and early became interested in politics. At the age of 20, he joined the Communist Party, and participated in several anti-war and anti-nuclear protests and demonstrations. However, as he grew older he also grew more moderate in his views, and he joined the centre-left Green Party. In the Green party

The New Alliance
By the late 3490s, Voulis had become a prominent Green Party member, and became an obvious candidate for the party leadership of the newly founded New Alliance, into which the Green Party merged in 3501, after having co-operated with the Democratic Left Party for many years. The New Alliance succeeded in gaining seats in the 3502 local elections, getting 5.5 percent of the votes and 36 seats, though the party remained in opposition in all of the 40 local councils. This made the party's legislative power scattered and in many cases powerless, due to its initial exclusion from political discussion by the already established parties.
