The Shunk

The Shunk is a Dogger politician and Leader of the Liberal Party. He is currently serving as a Liberal Party MNA, and is the Minister for Infrastructure. He has been leader of the Liberal Party since early September, and has governed for four elections so far, in which his party won 7, 11, ,9, and 16 seats in the NA. He is known for founding the Anti-French Caucus and proposing several bills such as the Anti-Corruption Act and High Speed Rail Act.

The Shunk became leader of the Liberal party following the sudden retirement of Baal Moss. Within the Liberal party he was a centrist, whose main goal is to unify the left leaning and right leaning factions of the party, and rebound after the Liberals disappointing showing the the Late August 2021 Doggerland Legislative Elections. Following the worst election result in Liberal History in September, The Shunk shifted to the left wing of the Liberal Party, commonly referred to as 'Neo-Triangalite' Actions such as joining the UP Alliance and the White Heat government were unpopular with many on the right.

In the late October election, the Liberals had their best results since Saber, but later lost ground in November. The Liberal Party has been key in both of the Civic-Progressive governments. Following the December elections the Liberal Party got 16 seats, on par with Saber's election victory in August and 3rd or 4th best in Liberal history, and the best since Triangles election in February.

The Liberals have seen a substantial increase in membership following the November election, to levels not seen in many months. Many of these new members are from the parties right wing, which suggests a shift in party direction will take place once he resigns, whenever that may be.
