History
The Lamp is Lighted
January 2012 saw the UK take a dark turn in politics with no one sure of what their retrospective parties offered. With this being the case Angela Williams and Elias Green started looking to found a new party, it wasn’t long before they contacted Lewis Holand. With Holands agreement Williams and Green set at founding a new political party. set about a great plan to redevelop the political landscape in Britain with a party quick to adapt and get started by acquiring long dormant party with funding from financial backers. Thus a duo was formed, within hours the party had swelled to include the seeds for growth thanks to two leading figures in the aforementioned Green and Williams. From here, the party set its course to strive for the ordinary people and build a party structure centering on the safety net approach where a man can rise to his dreams but be captured in he falls in the safety net of society.
The Triumvirate
As soon as the party was formed, a triumvirate developed, a triangle of vision between Green, Holand and Williams. One would focus on development, PR and structure, one would focus on laymen and the individual members and one would focus on the financial side. The result was the creation of a system for party loans, a newspaper and whole new ideas for the country presidency. The Triumvirate would work hard for the growth of the party with their combined interests. Holand had been a member since the early days when the party was officially the Peej Appreciation Society whilst Williams and Green had always desired a new way of politics.
Country Presidency
NUM's first candidate for Country Presidency was a difficult decision that the members were apprehensive towards at first. The result was a candidate that everyone knew could do the job. A man with the drive and great ambition as well as political ideals to create the great new 'Welfare State' Green and Williams had devised since their early days in the game - that man was to be iGuy.
Angela Williams Term
After Elias Green's term as PP ended Angela Williams was elected as Party President for 2 months. The first month saw a huge surge in members, activity and the introducing of party positions. During his first term the Party also made it into the top 5 political parties in Britain. During his second term Williams supported by Elias and Holland created a Military unit for the party which was a great success and added to the solidarity of the parties members. Williams says that his greatest success in NUM was getting the Party two congress seats.
Collapse of NUM
Soon after Angela Williams passed on the role of Party President to Lewis Holland who was elected and began trying to advance the party using unethical methods. Both Williams and Green opposed the ideas of Holland, by now the party had slipped down into 6th place under the Holland administration. Angela Williams was voted to be the person representing congress he ran under another party with the backing of NUM. After being elected Williams moved back to NUM where him and Green called an urgent party conference as a result of this conference Holland was voted out by the members but he refused to resign. As a Result Williams left the National Union of Miners and and Green later left as a result of Holland who allowed the party erode and slowly start to die.
The Return of NUM
Elias Green and new Player Arthur Scargil vowed to recreate the National Union of Miners after it was destroyed, They are in talks about where to create the party and the views the party should take.
