Alec Beasley

Alec Joseph Beasley was a British politician most notable for having served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 2011 to 2014. A descendant of the famed soldier and politician Harry Flashman, Beasley attended Eton alongside fellow future Prime Minister Roger Barlow. Interested in politics from early on, Beasley found early work as a Special Adviser to the Conservative Party, working on the victorious 1991 and 1995 election campaigns. Following the landslide defeat of 1998, Beasley temporarily retired from politics, instead taking up a job working for the Prentiss-McCabe public relations company. This ended when Beasley was elected as MP for the safe seat of Witney. Following the resignation of Conservative leader Hubert Guest, Beasley became a close advisor to his replacement, Paul Critchley, subsequently being appointed Shadow Education Secretary.

When Critchley resigned after Conservative defeats in the 2007 and 2008 general elections, Beasley was elected Leader of the Conservative Party. He defeated the party stalwart Peter Mannion in the leadership contest. Beasley sought to make the Conservatives more modern and media friendly, hiring spin doctors including Stewart Pearson and Cal Richards. Due to his middle name being Joseph, Beasley was commonly nicknamed "JB". Although the Conservatives failed to win the 2009 general election, they won a great many seats, keeping Beasley's position secure. Finally, in the 2011 general election, the Conservatives were able to defeat the Labour government of Tom Davis and return to power with Beasley as Prime Minister, although a deal with the Liberal Democrats was required in order to ensure a majority.

The first crisis of the Beasley premiership was when aliens again attacked London. These aliens produced a pheromone for mating, and devastated several council estates before being repelled. Under Beasley's government, the whole of humanity temporarily gained immortality on what was called "Miracle Day." In 2011, two percent of the world's population suddenly vanished, including two percent of the U.K's population. The Shakri invaded Earth during Beasley's government. Beasley was also Prime Minister during the Awakening of Magic, in which supernatural beings became public knowledge. Beasley merged the Ministry of Magic with the British government, appointing Minister for magic Hermione Granger to his cabinet.

Beasley secretly authorised the settlement of thousands of Zygon refugees in the U.K. In response to the constant wave of alien invasions and terrorist attacks, Beasley imposed strict security measures and surveillance, creating the Total Information Awareness system (TIA). Beasley also defeated an attempted coup by the far right terrorist group Condor. Beasley collaborated with the CIA to commit human rights abuses against detainees, and abused intelligence agencies for political purposes. An avid hawk, Beasley committed troops to the American interventions in Qumar and Wadiya, resulting in the deaths of over 200 British soldiers in the nuclear destruction of Agrabah. Beasley was a business partner in the intelligence firm Gladstone, which engaged in illegal war profiteering and the construction of CIA black sites. Beasley resigned after information regarding his illicit activities were leaked to the press.
