A Fresh Perspective on Representation
The current state of politics in the UK has led to widespread disillusionment among citizens. The dominance of career politicians, often detached from the everyday experiences of their constituents, has contributed to this disconnect. In contrast, having a patriotic veteran as an MP could bring a much-needed breath of fresh air to the political landscape.

*The Problem with Career Politicians*
Career politicians often rise through the ranks of their party, accumulating experience in politics rather than in the real world. This can lead to a narrow perspective, shaped by the party's ideology and the need to toe the line. As a result, they may prioritize party loyalty over the needs and concerns of their constituents.

*The Veteran Advantage*
Veterans, on the other hand, bring a unique set of skills, experiences and teamwork to the table. Having served their country, they have a deep understanding of the sacrifices made by individuals and communities. This experience can foster a sense of patriotism and duty, driving them to represent their constituents with integrity and compassion.

*Key Benefits of Veteran MPs*
1. *Authenticity*: Veterans are not career politicians. They have lived experience of serving their country, which can lend authenticity to their representation.

2. *Diverse Skills*: Military service equips veterans with a range of skills, from leadership and teamwork to problem-solving and adaptability. These skills can be applied effectively in the political arena.

3. *Constituency Focus*: Veterans will be more inclined to prioritise the needs of their constituents, rather than being driven by party ideology.

4. *Respect and Trust*: Veterans often earn respect and trust from their constituents, who appreciate their service and sacrifice.

*A New Type of Politics*
By electing professional patriotic veterans as MPs, we can potentially create a new type of politics, one that prioritises the needs of constituents over party loyalty. Veterans can bring a fresh perspective, shaped by their experiences and their commitment to family and to serving our country.

*Conclusion*
In conclusion, having some many veterans as an MP can be a game-changer for representation in the UK.
By bringing authenticity, diverse skills, and a constituency-focused approach, veterans can help restore trust in politics and provide a more effective voice for their constituents. It's time to consider a new type of politics, one that values service, sacrifice, and a genuine commitment to the people.
Having veterans as parliamentary candidates can be a great asset for a new political movement, a 'people's army'. Veterans often possess valuable skills and experiences that can be applied to politics, such as:

- *Leadership*: Many veterans have held leadership positions, making them effective decision-makers.

- *Teamwork*: Veterans are often skilled at working in teams, which is essential in politics.

- *Problem-solving*: Veterans have experience dealing with complex situations, making them adept at finding solutions.

- *Resilience*: Veterans have demonstrated resilience in the face of adversity, which can serve them well in the often-challenging world of politics. The movement has good policies and veterans as candidates

Some benefits of having veterans as candidates include:

We are ideologically neutral as we are from families who vote for all parties of the British political spectrum

- *Authenticity*: Veterans can speak to issues affecting veterans and the armed forces with authority and authenticity.

- *Trust*: The public may trust veterans more due to their service and sacrifice.

- *Unique perspective*: Veterans bring a distinct perspective to policy-making, shaped by their experiences.

Ultimately, the success of the movement would depend on various factors, including:

- *Policy quality*: The party's policies would be well-crafted, effective, and appealing to voters.

- *Candidate quality*: The veterans are strong candidates, able to connect with voters and articulate the party's vision.

- *Party organization*: We need to be well-organized, with a clear structure and effective communication.

With these factors coming together, our new grass roots movement with veteran candidates will be a compelling new force in British politics.
 
Proud Professional Patriots
The terms "patriot" and "nationalist" are often used interchangeably, but they have distinct connotations and meanings.

*Patriot*
A patriot is someone who loves, supports, and defends their country, its people, and its institutions. Patriotism involves a sense of loyalty, duty, and pride in one's nation, its history, and its values. Patriots often demonstrate their love for their country through service, sacrifice, and advocacy for its well-being.
 
*Nationalist*
A nationalist, on the other hand, emphasizes the superiority of their nation, its culture, and its interests over others. Nationalism often involves a strong sense of identity tied to the nation, and can manifest as a desire for self-determination, independence, or dominance. Nationalists may prioritize their nation's interests over global cooperation, diversity, or the rights of other nations.

*Key differences*

1. *Inclusivity*: Patriotism tends to be more inclusive, focusing on love and loyalty for one's country, whereas nationalism can be exclusive, emphasizing the superiority of one's nation over others.

2. *Attitude towards others*: Patriots may celebrate their country's achievements without diminishing others, whereas nationalists often compare and contrast their nation with others, often to assert superiority.

3. *Priorities*: Patriots might prioritise the well-being and prosperity of their country and its citizens, while nationalists may prioritise the nation's interests, even if it means compromising the rights or interests of others..

4. *Tone*: Patriotism can be expressed in a positive, uplifting way, whereas nationalism can take on a more aggressive, divisive tone.

*Examples:*
- A patriot might say, "I'm proud to serve my country and contribute to its prosperity."

- A nationalist might say, "My country is the greatest, and we should prioritise its interests above all else."

While both patriotism and nationalism can be complex and multifaceted, understanding the differences between these terms can help clarify the nuances of identity, loyalty, and belonging.
 
"Time-Served Professional Patriots" is a fitting description for a veteran-led grassroots movement. Here's why:

- *Time-served*: This phrase acknowledges the veterans' service, implying a sense of experience, dedication, and sacrifice.

- *Professional*: This term highlights the veterans' training, discipline, and expertise gained through their military service. It also implies a sense of commitment and seriousness about their cause.

- *Patriots*: By embracing this label, the movement emphasises their love for their country, its families, and its values. It suggests a deep sense of loyalty and duty to the nation and its citizens.

This description could resonate with people who value the contributions and sacrifices made by veterans. It might also help to:

1. *Establish credibility*: By emphasising their background, the movement can demonstrate its commitment to service and patriotism.

2. *Inspire trust*: The term "time-served" and "professional" can convey a sense of reliability and expertise, which might help build trust with potential supporters.

3. *Foster unity*: The label "patriots" can create a sense of shared identity and purpose among veterans and like-minded individuals.

Overall, "time-served professional patriots" is a powerful and meaningful description for a veteran-led grassroots movement.

​
We veterans, as a body, are not left or right wing, we are from all walks of British society, from all strata and demographics, all social & economic classes etc.
 
Some of us are left-sh others are right-ish, others are centrists, just your normal, everyday Brits really;
 
A very broad church indeed.
​
This not a matter of the Right Vs Left. It's a matter of Right & Wrong and unchecked power.



We propose:

'The Royal Republic of Great Britain' 

Royal: 
We have a constitutional Monarchy.

Republic:
We elect our representatives into Government, to serve the people. A major tenant of a Republic.

Since the days of the 'Glorious Revolution of 1688', when parliament invited William of Orange to come to Britain with an army to protect the protestant faith and be crowned King of England replacing King James ll, a catholic, who was overthrown.

Constitutionally, we have Parliamentary Supremacy from the Bill of Rights (1689) which is why a British Monarch CANNOT dissolve a British Parliament until the sitting Prime Minister instructs (advises) the monarch so to do.

We are a democratic society with the separation of governing powers:
1,The Executive
2,The Legislature
3,The Judiciary
​
We propose adding one more separated Power to the Common Law of the Royal Republic of Great Britain:
​
* The 4th Protocol: *Princeps Britannia Major* (Latin: The Prince of Great Britain).
​
A British Common Law instrument which can only be amended or removed by referendum of the nation by public vote of BRITISH CITIZENS.

Aim:
To prevent the overreach of Parliamentary Supremacy and to overrule the Executive, at any time, when required


'The 4th Protocol' will ensure that the government remains accountable to the Citizens. This is not a change in the balance of powers between monarch and government.
It will be a Common Law Statutory Instrument with which we British Citizens may democratically overrule our democratically elected British Government ensuring the British Government be held to account.
​
This is a unique instrument, separate from the monarch and the government, with the power to intervene when petitioned by the people.
​
The Princeps independence and neutrality would be crucial in maintaining trust and ensuring that the system functions effectively. The idea of an independent referee resonates with the concept of a checks and balances system, where power is distributed to prevent any one entity from dominating the others.

* When petitioned by the electorate;
 
The Prince of Wales, empowered by invocation of the 4th Protocol, having the supreme authority of British Citizens by democratic will, Is elevated to:
'PRINCEPS', the Highest Authority of the realm, to act in the interests of the people, revoke specific unelected policies, dismiss certain politicians or in fact dismiss parliament (Nationwide vote of no confidence in the British Government) requiring His Majesty King Charles lll to call a General Election due to British Citizens vote of no confidence in the British Government.
 
Examples:
​
1, Unelected, Unwanted Policy:
British Citizens invoke 'The 4th Protocol' and empower the Prince of Wales into the Office: 'Princeps'
to revoke an unelected policy they deem unnecessary or harmful, which was implemented without proper democratic oversight, 'Princeps Britannia', upon verifying the petition's legitimacy, invokes 'Common Law Authority to overturn the policy;
​
*Example: A policy allowing increased surveillance without a warrant is petitioned against by British Citizens. Princeps intervenes and democratically strikes down the policy.
 
 
2, Dismissal of individuals from office:
British Citizens invoke the 4th Protocol to remove an elected official or government representative who is deemed unfit or corrupt. After investigation, The Princeps invokes Common Law Authority to dismiss the individual, potentially triggering a by-election or other accountability measures.
​
*Example:
A government minister is accused of misconduct and British Citizens invoke The 4th Protocol to remove them from office. The Princeps investigates and due to evidence, decides to dismiss the minister.
​
​
3, Dissolution of Parliament causing the monarch to call a General Election.
British Citizens invoke The 4th Protocol of the Royal Republic of Great Britain, to dissolve parliament due to our loss of confidence in the government or a gridlock in the legislative process.
The Princeps, upon verifying the petition's legitimacy, Invokes Common Law Authority to dissolve Parliament, prompting the Monarch to call a General Election;
 
*Example:
British Citizens invoke The 4th Protocol to dissolve parliament due to prolonged political instability or a government's failure to address pressing national issues. The Princeps intervenes citing Common Law Authority to dismiss parliament and a General Election is called by the monarch.
​
There is no change in the balance of powers between Parliament & Monarchy.
The Prince of Wales is not the Monarch.
The Princeps is the British Citizen's Declaration of absolute Authority over matters of State. Invocation of the 4th Protocol is by way of British Citizen's petition, similar to the current gov petition webpage, except, it cannot be ignored. The actions and scope of the Princeps will be clearly defined in the The 4th Protocol petition. The term of the Princeps is the length of the specific tasks of The 4th Protocol declaration.
The Princeps then returns with the 4th Protocol to slumber within British Common Law
 
Why Princeps?
Prior to 'Prince' being a Royal title. It was a position of authority and absolute power. 
Prince is derived from the Romans term for absolute authority over lands, Kingdoms and Kings. Kings would be subservient to, pay homage to, supply armies to the Roman Princeps. (Prince; in Latin). Princeps - Prince became a Royal tittle subservient to a King when King Edward ll finally defeated 'Princeps Walliae' it was later passed down from king to son recurring to this day.
 
Princeps power over Kings, to becoming a subservient Royal Rank

Becoming the "Royal" Republic of Great Britain, plus, we all being genetically related to the Monarch..

All British Children may pronoun as 'Prince' or 'Princess' of The Royal Republic of Great Britain.

Examples:
 
Prince Josh' Valmanson, of The Royal Republic of Great Britain

Princess Courtney Wright, of The Royal Republic of Great Britain

Adopting these pronouns would be a great social equalizer. No matter of status or socio-economic background.
