Meet the Party Candidates
& their Policies
Diolch
yn fawr (thank you very much) to everyone who participated in the first part of
the Whovian Election programme to choose the candidate for their Party. The votes have all been counted from Twitter
and Facebook and the results are thus:
Torchwood Team – Ianto Jones
Immortals – Captain Jack
Harkness
Shapeshifters – Nostrovite
Armoured Division – Bannakaffalatta
Loyal Screamers – Donna Noble
Amicitia – Canton
Everett Delaware
Renegades – River Song
UNIT – Dr. Martha Jones
Gallifrey No More – The 10th
Doctor
There
were a lot of surprises during the Voting, some who we thought might have
raised a few votes received none at all, whereas some we thought weren’t as
popular galloped to the finishing line.
Now
the fun part begins. Each of these
Candidates needs their supporters, and so we’re looking to you guys to help
raise the profile of the character. Up
for the challenge?
Interesting
that Ianto Jones will be up against Captain Jack Harkness!!! Cue the innuendo
squad!
What
we’re looking for are the fans that will spread the word to all their buddies
right across social networking sites to bring them to the Voting table, on our
Facebook Page i.e. the ePolls. This will
be open from 9pm Sunday 26th April and end on 5th May at
6pm. The votes will be counted and the
winner duly elected as the Protector General of the Earth. So there’s a lot to play for.
But
as ever we’ll keep a watchful eye on the Voting. Please remember that if you haven’t got a
Facebook account, but want to vote in the elections, you can still hashtag your
vote on Twitter.
Now
one other thing – this is all a bit of fun, to beat the blues of the UK ’s
general election. We know you’re
passionate about your favourite characters, but we don’t want any falling out
amongst the fans, no fisticuffs at dawn.
Dawn
is a nice lass and doesn’t like folks picking on her or firing at Will!
Remember,
if you want to vote for your favourite candidate, please use the links
provided.
The Armoured Division
– Bannakaffalatta – Bannakaffalatta Happy!
A
travelling Zocci on the cruiseliner Titanic, Bannakaffalatta, despite his
diminutive height, has a soft spot for Astrid Peth, a waitress aboard the
cruiseliner Titanic, owned by Max Capricorn.
A cyborg due to injuries, Bannakaffalatta is a likeable red spiky
character who would sacrifice his own life to save others using his EMP source.
As
part of his manifesto Bannakaffalatta plans to put an end to the discrimination
that he and fellow cyborgs face on the planet Sto.
He
also wants increased funding for cybernetic research.

Gallifrey No More -
The 10th Doctor – No Second Chances
With
a strong attitude towards the Universe, the 10th Doctor is a very
confident individual. However, the often
witty, empathetic and quirky Time Lord also has a darker side, should anyone
wish to cross his path and threaten the livelihood of his friends, companions and
planet Earth.
He
is a No Second Chance man and his policies are clear:
He
wants NHS doctors to apologise – to oh so apologise, every time they lose a
patient.
With
the ever increasing threat to mankind on planet Earth, the 10th
Doctor wants first time offenders to receive One Warning. Second time offenders are to be killed with a
Satsuma!

Shapeshifters Party –
Nostrovite – Advocates of Free Love
Nostrovites
are dangerous shape shifting alien creatures.
Never let them bite you. They have
an exo-biological insemination system for creating their young. A Nostrovite bite can impregnate the host,
planting an egg (non-sentient blastopheric mass) into the host’s bloodstream. In 24 hours the female Nostrovite will seek
out the host, rip them apart and free the young Nostrovite. It’s not pretty!
But
taking that aside, (the ripping apart of the host), Nostrovites are family
orientated. Just view their mandate:
The
Nostrovite want Free crèche facilities for all Mothers.
They
want Maternity Pay to equate to a living wage
And
want the ban on large Nostrovite families lifted.

The Immortals Party -
Captain Jack Harkness - Ooh, the usual. Pizza. Ianto. Save the world a couple of times!
Once
a Time Agent manipulating history to eliminate rogue elements, Captain Jack
Harkness, now runs a successful Torchwood faction, in honour of The Doctor,
with whom Jack has travelled with on many an occasion.
Jack
is fiercely protective of planet Earth, and along with his team, scavenges
alien artefacts that wash up through the Rift.
Jack is a ‘fixed point in time’ and cannot die, making him the ideal
candidate to go into areas where no mortal man can.
When
pressed for his political mandate, Jack replied “You do not want to know what
I’m thinking right now.” Insisting that we did, he raised a brow, and broadened
his grin.
Captain
Jack Harkness, with his charming smile and boyish good looks can con the birds
from the trees but he will defend the human race and fiercely protect those
that he cares about, even if at times, protecting the human race may come at
some personal cost to him.
Jack’s
policies are simple:
He
would like to see the inheritance Tax on families of Immortal individuals
scrapped.
He
would also like to see £100,000 to go along with the Centenary Telegraph from
the Queen.
AND
would also like to see Lube available on the NHS!!!

Loyal Screamers Party
- Donna Noble – Doctor Donna!
Fiery
tempered Donna Noble is louder than the average companion, quite outspoken,
feisty and quite funny. Donna has met
many alien creatures in her time, her first being a rather large angry red
spider – the Racnoss. She travelled with
the 10th Doctor on many adventures back in time and into the future,
and during a battle with Daleks, during which Donna was trapped in the burning
TARDIS, was transformed by the Doctor’s regeneration energy gaining the
consciousness of the Time Lords. She was
able to save the Universe from Davros’ reality bomb. However the Time Lord side of Donna’s brain was
too much for her to handle and the Doctor had to remove it, erasing all the
memories of her time with the Doctor.
However, not all is bad, some regenerative consciousness remained,
enough to protect Donna from the transformation of all humans across the land,
into the Master Race. All hail to the
Vespiform!
Donna’s
mandate policy is simple, she wants to increase the minimum wage for all 180wpm
Temping Staff!

#LoyalScreamers
Torchwood Party -
Ianto Jones - That's what I love about Torchwood. By day you're chasing the scum of the
Universe, come midnight, you're the Wedding Fairy.
Loyal
and faithful assistant to Captain Jack Harkness, Ianto began a relationship
with the Captain after his girlfriend Lisa Hallett lost her battle to become
completely human when her cybernetic side took over. Ianto is a walking encyclopaedia, knowing
everything there is to know about the tech, “I know everything.” He told us.
“And it says so on the bottom of the screen!”
He
is a meticulous man, quiet yet extremely loyal.
He also looks pretty hot in a red UNIT beret and he loves Captain Jack
Harkness, which might pose a problem in their relationship as they’re both in
the race to the finish. When asked if
Ianto thought Jack would play fair in the Whovian Elections, he told us.
“He cheats, he always cheats.”
When
asked about his Policies, Ianto was clear on what he wanted to achieve.
Policies:
An
increase in minimum wage for Pizza Delivery Operatives.
Make
Bisexual identity more prevalent and taught in schools
Ban
Office Assistants from being the Coffee Boy!

Amicitia Party - Canton Everett
Delaware – Agent with Attitude
Once
an FBI agent Canton Everett Delaware III was kicked out of the organisation
when he told them that he wanted to marry a man. He’s not afraid to break the rules. He’s a friend of the Doctor, pretending to
rejoin the FBI in order to find the Doctor, Rory and Amy, in order to halt the
Silent Invasion.
Insurance
Equality
Inheritance
Equality.

Renegades Party –
Professor River Song – Hello Sweetie!
It’s
fair to say that Professor River Song, archaeologist, knows much more about the
Doctor than any of his previous companions, she was after all married to
him. She was conceived in the TARDIS and
raised with many Time Lord Skills, including that of Regeneration. River is an enigmatic character, and very
flirtatious. She keeps a diary of her
time spent with the Doctor where with each encounter the Doctor remembers her
less and less.
River
Song is an able pilot of the TARDIS, is nifty with the gadgets and is a born
fighter, and can protect herself and her companions in time of trouble. She too fiercely fights to protect those that
she loves.
When
we asked River about what it felt like travelling with the Doctor she told us:
“When you run with the Doctor, it feels like
it will never end. But however hard you
try, you can't run forever. Everybody
knows that everybody dies. And nobody
knows it like the Doctor. But I do think
that all the skies of all the worlds might just turn dark if he ever, for one
moment, accepts it!”
River’s
policy is simple:
She
would like to see a decrease in the prison sentences for women who kill a good
man.

UNIT Party – Dr. Martha
Jones - This is Martha Jones representing the Unified Intelligence Taskforce on
behalf of the human race
Dr
Martha Jones has not only travelled with the Doctor, but was employed by UNIT
after the Doctor put in a good word for her, AND has through her work with UNIT
worked with Torchwood, uncovering the truth behind the work at the Pharm, and almost
faced death after being attacked by a possessed gauntlet used to bring back Dr.
Owen Harper.
She
has in her own words: “Travelled across the world. From the ruins of New York , to the fusion mills of China , right across the radiation pits of Europe . And everywhere I went I saw people just like you,
living as slaves!”
During
the Year that Never was, where only certain people aboard the Valiant would
remember, Martha Jones saved the world from the tyranny that would see the
Master control the Earth. Martha travelled upon the instructions of the Doctor,
to save the world, and she did it, and she is a Legend, but she shrugs this
title off, telling people that it was the Doctor who is the reason for why she
walked the Earth, a man whose name is more important, yet not many have heard
of him.
But
she also has a warning, for those who follow or wish to follow the Time
Lord.
“You need to be careful, because you know
the Doctor's wonderful and he's brilliant, but he's like fire. Stand too close
and people get burned.”
Dr.
Martha Jones’ policies are:
To
scrap tuition fees for all including Trainee Medical Students!
