When the August Local Elections rolled around one of the first things Alain did was give new citizens the chance to stand for Mayor in several of the UK regions. This lead to the election of two new citizens, Alan Hammond in Leeds and AngelFeather in London. His faith in new members was criticised when AngelFeather failed to take his seat as the Mayor of London. Leaving the busiest region of the UK without firm leadership.
