"I have worked" Unionist Movement Leader Scotbrit McBritish declared "for nearly 40 years of my life to see the events of today come to pass. It has been a long road, it has been a hard road, and at some points it has been a seemingly endless road. But it does have an end, and I am proud to announce that we have reached it. We have come to the end of an Era. For Centuries, these Isles have been divided, but now, finally, we are once more united in brotherhood."
"It is an end in more snese than just one. For a long time the Unionist movement has been a strong contender in the politics of our nations. Our goals were both decisive and popular, and we had a clear path laid out before us. We have walked that path now, and we are finally adrift in the field of politics. Where shall we go? What shall we do? For what cause will we fight? I say now that our purpose is accomplished. But we will not linger on aimlessly. We know when the time has come to lay down our metaphorical arms and rest. That time has now come."
"
The Unionist Movement is hereby Dissolved."
"And whilst I expect many of our members will decide to roam the story seas of politics still, I shall go quietly. I have accomplished by goal, and finally, I have a chance to rest. It is time for me to retire, time to give up the reigns of power to the new generation, to let the people of the new era slip out from the thumb of the old. And so it is that this, barring complete disaster, will be my last great speech. We have all come a long way together, but I have reached the end of my journey, and you, our nation, still have no end in sight."
"I say now farewell, to the political Arena."

Edit: Well since I don't want my writing to get too far ahead of my posting, I'm gonna stick another RP in this post. Elections here we come!
-----
With the voting extended to the entirety of the British Isles a number of the old Scotireish parties initiated their own mergers with political movements in former England. The resulting Parties are as follows:
The
Combined Liberal Party combines the old Scotireish Liberals with more restrained English Liberals, leading to a less determinatedly neutral party that embraces more pragmatic pacifist policies such as detterance.
The
United Conservative Party gained a great deal from the merger, being a able to access a large pool of conservative style English Politicians. Their policies remain largely unchanged.
The
Peoples Communist Movement of Britian has changed its name but little else, with Englands traditionally anti-communist stance meaning their comparitive power is much diminished, even whilst their numbers are largely unchanged.
The
New-Age Neutral Party is a new Party who are eager to forge a new path. They are great beleivers in the PUB's ability to become a power to be reckoned with alone from the Great Alliances of the world.
The
English National Party is essentially made up of the largely upper-class Englishmen who resisted the original merger. Whilst their support is low, their members tend to be quite influential.
The
Greater Gaelic Front has weakened somewhat, with their goal of Annexing England now outdated, and their goals of further expansion far less popular. They are also resented by many of the English who suffered from the lack of freedom under the Monarchy, who tend to disagree with the GGFs belief in centralised Autocracy.
The
Green Party of the Isles is a small bastion of beleivers who place the maintainance of the enviroment above the growth of Industry and GDP. They remain Largely ignored by the general populace.
Whilst the Communists and GGF are waning, the NANP appears to be the rising star of PUB politics, growing to challenge the more established Conservatives and Liberals. The GPI and ENP are expected to amount to effectively nothing, being to much at odds with the views of the general populace.
Edit Again: And the Green Party is so forgetable I forgot it.
