Social Credit Party

The Social Credit Party (SCP) (Doggish: Soeciale Kreiditirpartij, SKP), known commonly as the Socreds or Kreiditirs was a former party in Doggerland. The party was formed during the great depression by British and Canadian followers of C. H. Douglas. The party quickly abandoned most of Douglas's ideas and by it's peak in the 1950's the party had almost none of its original members. Most of the supporters of the SCP were rural conservatives, farmers and northern fishermen.

History
The Social Credit Party was founded on May 2nd, 1937 in a tavern in Orchardville, Centra by a group of 10 men led by John Mair (David R. Hoch, Thom Vogt, John Smith, Rupert A. Locke, Marc C. Ramsey, Jacob A. Nais, Albert Huber, George Welch and Francis K. Keyes). They believed in and promoted the social credit theory of economics, causing some exitement among local impoverished farmers during the tail end of the great depression allowing the party to win some local elections in Centra. Unfortunatly for the staunch Douglasites, the end of the great depression marked a turn towards mainstream conservatism and agrarianism, pushed forwards by Gijs Aene Heemstirk, a Dogger farmer and the first man outside the group of 10 to lead the party. This caused uproar among supporters of Jacob Nais, the presumptive leader. This in turn caused many of the traditional socreds to leave the party.

On April 17th, 1997 Monad Keer instructed the few remaining members to joing the Reform Alliance. The party was de-registered in 1999.
