The Four Star Party, also known colloquially as Four Star, is a right-wing political party in the United Kingdom, currently serving as one of the three opposition parties in the Parliament of the United Kingdom. Established shortly before the May 2023 general election, the party quickly gained visibility and influence within the right-wing spectrum. Following a merger with the UK First Party, the Four Star Party expanded its representation and currently holds six seats in the Parliament of the United Kingdom as of May 16th.
History
The Four Star Party is a right-wing political movement that emerged in the United Kingdom right before the May 2023 general election with the aim of bringing about significant changes to the existing establishment. Since its inception, the party has sought to promote a vision of renewal and transformation for the country.
The party's platform emphasizes the values of freedom and empowerment, aiming to create a society that is both emboldened and self-sufficient. With a focus on delivering a renewed and prosperous Britain, the Four Star Party positions itself as an alternative to the prevailing political landscape.
While the party is relatively new, its supporters envision a promising future ahead. They believe that their movement has the potential to make a lasting impact on British politics and society. However, it is important to note that the assessment of the party's influence and achievements is still a matter of ongoing debate and analysis.
Leadership
The leadership structure of the Four Star Party comprises a Chairman, Deputy Leader, and a prominent figure serving as the party's Leader. As of May 16th, limited information is available regarding the Chairman and Deputy Leader of the party.
The Leader of the Four Star Party, Dxavus, is an entrepreneur and barrister who has assumed a prominent role within the party. Prior to his involvement with the Four Star Party, Dxavus held membership in the Conservative and Unionist Party. However, his tenure as a Member of Parliament representing the Tories came to an end in April 2023, following his outspoken criticism of the government, which he deemed undemocratically elected.
Dxavus has gained attention for the challenges he has faced, particularly regarding perceived censorship by certain sections of the media, which he refers to as "fake news." These circumstances have contributed to shaping his public image within the political landscape.
Organisation
Party structure
The Four Star Party is a political party in the United Kingdom with a structured party organization. The party's structure encompasses several key elements, including leadership elections, board elections, the role of the party chairman, votes of no confidence (VONC), party mergers and rebranding, deputy roles, and emergency powers.
The resignation or dismissal of a party leader triggers party-wide elections, ensuring a democratic process for selecting a new leader. The chairman of the party oversees the leadership candidate selection process and maintains a record of the candidates. If only one candidate registers for the leadership election, they are automatically elected as the party leader. However, the party board holds the authority to deny a candidate the right to run. All candidates must adhere to the party's established rules and regulations. In the absence of eligible candidates, the party board has the power to elect a leader.
The party leader has the ability to appoint up to two board members, allowing them to influence the party's direction. The party leader and party chairman automatically hold board membership positions. Additionally, two board members are elected through party-wide elections, ensuring broader representation and member involvement. Any amendments to the party constitution require a two-thirds majority vote by the board. The party chairman is responsible for organizing party leadership elections and board elections. They play a crucial role in ensuring the smooth and efficient conduct of these processes. The party chairman is elected by the party leader based on a nomination from the party board, promoting transparency and accountability.
The party chairman can be removed through a Vote of No Confidence (VONC) initiated by the party board. This requires a 75% majority vote in favor of removal. Similarly, the party leader can be removed through a VONC tabled by the parliamentary caucus, requiring an 80% majority vote in favor of removal. Surviving a VONC grants the party leader immunity from another VONC for a period of seven months. Any party merge or rebranding efforts must receive approval from the party board, necessitating an 80% majority vote. This ensures that significant changes to the party's identity or structure are carefully considered and agreed upon.
The party leader and party chairman have the authority to appoint deputy roles for their respective offices. These deputy positions assist the leader and chairman in their responsibilities and ensure continuity in their absence. In exceptional circumstances, the party leader possesses emergency powers to remove a party official who may pose a liability to the party. This provision allows the leader to take swift action to protect the party's interests.
The party structure of the Four Star Party is designed to promote democratic decision-making, transparent governance, and organizational stability. Through various processes and provisions, the party seeks to uphold accountability, fairness, and continuity in leadership and decision-making.
