He used to be a frequent poster on alternatehistory.com, before conflicting with the moderating team over alleged corruption and double standards.

Political Positions The minister has made it evident that his principal concern with this fictional country is curtailing emissions and expanding the renewable energy sector. He is determined to make the entirety of Doggerland carbon neutral. The minister supports the socialist bills proposed by party leadership, including rapid and aggressive nationalisation of commercial business and increased taxes for higher earners, which he hopes will tip the scales of rich and poor. The minister has noted that when he gets drunk there is a certain point of intoxication where he starts yelling "TRANS RIGHTS" at anyone who enters his eye-line. He supports protections for BAME, LGBTQI+ and poor citizens, believing all should have access to proper schooling, housing and employment opportunities. He also supports regulation and decriminalisation of all illicit substances, insisting that controlling the supply will help cut off organise crime.

Controversies

Passionate about his political beliefs, the minister has been known to get into heated and lengthy arguments with members of the opposition, specifically when they insist that people can just 'find other jobs'. He insists that an obscure fiscal philosopher shouldn't be brought up to let children starve.

His first motion within the ULPP was to "punch the Libertarian Party in the collective dick" after a particularly bitter spat.

He is of the opinion it's perfectly fine to punch nazis.
