Cumbernick Bandersnatch

Cumbernick Bandersnatch is a Falleen politician and member of parliament for the Popular Republican Movement. He is currently serving as Chairman of the centre-right "Budget Hawks" faction of PRM.
=== PRM Leadership Candidate ===
Bandersnatch was the youngest and least-known of the four candidates who competed in the Popular Republican Leadership Challenge, 580AER. His campaign to bring PRM back towards the centre (as opposed to centre-left incumbent Sheldon Whitehouse) pitched him as an outsider coming to shake things up in the party. His major policy goal was to focus on balancing the budget, which had been severely hit by the war. Bandersnatch and his supporters suggested that Whitehouse was too connected to the Democratic Labour Party and asserted that PRM would be better off if it was able to work with the United Koalition of Imperialist Parties as it did extensively from 571-575AER. However, this sentiment would return to haunt him when UKIP's Alexander Thorn made a widely-panned comment against the government due to his perception that DLP and PRM were anti-military. MP Thorn was criticized from within his own party but became popular for the controversial statement among the UKIP base. This situation undermined Bandersnatch's argument that UKIP could be worked with again, and he suffered a last minute poll drop that ended up putting him in last place overall with 11%.Category:The Imperial Constitution
