Bloca Parliament

Parties
Bloc A

Bloc A is a movement that gained traction in the 2021 Legislative Elections. The current leader of the Bloc is Gil Van Aitzema, who is a businessman. It split from the Bloca Civic Union and was not expected to gain such traction during the election due to it’s weak base. It scored especially well with the rural population, along with the Doggish majority constituencies. The success of the party is attributed to Van Aitzema’s ability to benefit from the national government and the “establishments'' in the Civic Union and Liberal Party. He also ran a pro-oil and business friendly campaign that saw Northern Independence the only way to revitalize jobs within the Province. It was formerly known as the Bloca National People’s Party.

Bloca Civic Union

The Bloca Civic Union is led by Lotte Baker. It is a center-right to right-wing party with an indifference to the Northern Independence movement. Former leader Gen. Peter Spiegel was the leader of the party and led the government from 2005 to 2021. Spiegel balanced the moderate and populist wings of the Civic Union. As mentioned, the party has two main factions: the moderates, who support liberal-conservative ideas and are generally in urban areas. The populists on the other hand advocate for further right wing principles, along with populism of course, and are located in rural areas. To achieve a victory in most elections, it is typical for leaders of the party to cater to both wings.

John Lounsbrough, a CU Provincial MP, is reportedly planning to contest the leadership due to Baker not focusing on the Northern Independence movement enough.

Bloca Liberal Party

A party in a dynasty of sorts, the Liberal Party continues to elect members of the Akkerman Political Family to be leaders into power. This contributes to some of the outrage against the establishment parties, reminiscent of the Indian National Congress. It is led by Zoe Akkerman, who stressed the importance of unionism, that is the unity between the north and the south. However, Akkerman didn’t really give an argument for the ideology, simply putting it into her manifesto. The party also is very centrist in nature, sticking with classical liberal values as well.
