Mutualist Ouroboros Party

The Mutualist Ouroboros Party is a political party within Easway originally founded by the Emizerri during the provisional government, but later made inactive until May 2021 when former President Aleksou Maximus Desourrë redesigned the party & became the new Party Chief.

History


The party was originally created by the Emizerri, as he saw Mutualism as a theory which could lead Easway into economic prosperity whilst implementing socially just policies into the constitution which would drive Easway away from the old and then current Parliamentarian system which both the Emizerri & President Desourrë felt was incompatibile for Easway's nature.

Not only was the party used for Mutualism economic purposes but also for what the Emizerri called Directorialism, a modification of the Directorial System seen in Switzerland & San Marino refit into a completely Monarcho Anarchist government.

The party wanted a government that was void of the usual pyramid power structure of the many unitary nations, which was indeed realised after a January 13th 2020 referendum, which saw the Presidential system of Easway abolished (on the 14th) & three equal power governors of each municipality appointed.

Disbanding & Made Inactive
Despite the party being disbanded after a collective decision by the newly appointed Marquis in May of 2020, this was not because the Emizerri didn't want an Imperial position to not hold partisan persuasion, like others had suggested to the Emperor in the past. It was disbanded because the collective decision was to outlaw political parties, a topic headed by then Regent Marquis Csyeigo who felt they were not necessary for the new Realm.

Redesign and Reactivation
In November of 2020, political parties were again made legal.

The thought of recreating the party had been a topic since then, but no action for this was taken until May, when Desourrë wished to re-enter the political scene in Easway, with the original tried and tested party.

The party flag was completely redesigned to stand out against the other new parties, an idealogy was defined & the party was submitted.

On May 26th 2021, the Mutualist Ouroboros Party under the leadership of Maximus allied with the National Republican Party of Easway, this lasted until July 23rd, when the National Republican leader, Boe Jiden pulled his party from the Alliance in order to join with the Homofascist Party of Easway. This ended the coalition & triggered a no confidence motion against Maximus, which with a majority of 6 votes succeeded & ousted him as both Director for Business & Labour & as Party Chief, replacing him as Party Chief was Etchasketch, who himself had previously left the part for Solidarity, resigned as Director, only to return to the M.O.P. Etchasketch stood in the July 2021 Director for Business & Labour on Bear Island By-Election, which he won in an undisputed landslide picking up 11 votes and 68.8% of the vote total, with Demitrou Chostacovitch coming second with 3 votes (18.8%) & Metallityöt with 2 (12.5%). This is one of the highest margins of victory in the history of Easway.

As party leader, Etchasketch created an Alliance with the Social Democrat Party of Easway on July 28th 2021. This alliance lasted until the leader of the SDPE abruptly resigned his posts and there was no one to replace him in the party.

Etchasketch created a political alliance with the Federalistic Easwegian Voters’ Association on October 25th 2021 to create the FEVA-MOP Alliance. A manifesto of political alliance rules were created as the party leaders stated "this would ensure the alliance will be stable and not fall apart like previous non thought out alliances, especially in the opposition."

The party saw much rejuvenation during the leadership of Etchasketch, who was polling as one of the most positively viewed government representatives in Easway, and the party went from holding just one government representative in July 2021 to 3 in the National Directorate in December.

On January 31st 2022 the Mutualist Ouroboros Party saw major headway in Easwegian politics when the General Secretary of the Homonationalist Party of Easway, Hellmut disbanded his party, citing disappointment with the performance of the government representatives in his party, and joined the M.O.P, ever growing in party membership. As Hellmut was recently elected in the Imperial Council as the Regent Marquis, the M.O.P immediately gained a vice head of state, the second highest position under the Emperor. With the appointment by the National Directorate of Don as Supreme Director on January 19th, this meant the M.O.P effectively controlled both the state and the government departments, although it must be noted under the directorial system this doesn't indicate the same level of power as in a parliamentary presidential system.

The M.O.P voted Hellmut as the vice-chief of the party on February 1st 2022. The former deputy leader of the HPE, Archiennè joined the party the same day.

Voting History
