Rakas21

**Rakas21** is the Deputy Leader of the Conservative Party. He is a former Speaker of the Commons, Prime Minister and Conservative Party Leader, and holds the record for the longest-serving Conservative Prime Minister.

Arriving in the MHoC during the 12th Parliament, Rakas was relatively unknown until the 14th Parliament when he was selected as an MP by the then leader Indievertigo.

## Early Career and Becoming Prime Minister

Rakas was a critic of the Labour-Liberal government in the 14th Parliament. This Parliament saw activity decrease in the MHoC - it would go on to have the least output since the 8th Parliament - and with the election of the new Conservative Leader, OrangeStu, Rakas became more prominent in the MHoC.

Due to inactivity in the Conservative Party - largely due to Orange Stu going AWOL - and the collapse in the Labour-Liber Government, following a Labour leadership change and the Liberals withdrawing, Rakas and other Conservative members launched an internal MoNC in the leadership of OrangeStu. The subsequent leadership election saw Rakas elected as Leader of the Conservative Party.

Following the leadership change, the Conservative Party, along with other influential forces on the right - such as Toronto353's UKIP and MacDaddi - launched a MoNC in the Labour government resulting in a General Election.

After the election, Rakas led a Conservative - UKIP - Independent coalition consisting of 15 seats (later 14 following a scandal involving the doctoring of an Ad Hoc article). The 15th Parliament rebounded sharply from the lows of the 14th to become the most active term on record at that time.

The 16th election saw the Conservative Party suffer one of its worst results, allowing a Socialist-Labour coalition to enter government. Despite leading the party to a heavy defeat, Rakas remained leader.

## First Return to Government (17th and 18th Parliaments)

Rakas led both a Conservative-UKIP-Libertarian and a Conservative-Liberal-UKIP coalition. Late in the 18th Parliament, Rakas resigned as Prime Minister and Leader of the Conservative Party and became a Treasury Minister under his successor, Qwertish.

## Second Return to Government (23rd Parliament)

Rakas would later serve once again in a Conservative-Liberal coalition under Life Peer. He served as Secretary Of State for Infrastructure and later Foreign Secretary. Rakas published successful bills to abolish VAT on energy bills, abolish Stamp Duty for first time buyers on properties under £600k and persuading the party to support the Turkish coup. He also defied a Government whip on a euthanasia bill he considered "the most immoral and putrid act ever put before this House" and was briefly sacked before being reinstated.

## Third Return to Government (27th and 28th Parliaments)

The Conservative Party returned to government under the leadership of Life Peer (serving his second term as Prime Minister), a Conservative minority government formed after an initial confidence and supply agreement with the Libertarian Party (though this agreement collapsed mid-term).

Rakas was appointed Chancellor of the Exchequer. He published a budget and passed his Finance Act. Rakas would go on to serve a second term as Chancellor of the Exchequer during the 28th Parliament. Little of note was achieved in the latter stint.

## Fourth Return to Government (31st Parliament)

Rakas was appointed Chancellor of the Exchequer once again by Baron of Sealand in a Conservative-Citizen's Party coalition.

## Opposition Years

Rakas considers his opposition years to be of insignificance where little has been achieved. However, there have been some notable moments.

During Opposition in the 29th and 30th Parliaments, Rakas wrote and passed Sovereign Investment Bill, a bill which created a Sovereign Wealth Fund. The bill's passing led to fractious relations with the Libertarian Deputy Leader and economic spokesman, Jammy Duel.
