    Eugenics, Nukes and an Avocado Pizza - A Sideways Party Run-down TL
    Threadmarks: Intro

    So, you're doing the talking to yourself thing? I'm doing that thing, yes. A Party Run-down TL? I do this thing where once every two to three weeks I look at the websites of all the UK parties, write a sentence about each one, and try to be funny. Then I post it at the start of each new...

    Hey There Doctor Blue Skies - A Doctor Who TLIAD

    Richard Ayoade 2009-2012 "This angst business is boring. I'm bored. Come on! Let's go on a quick, twenty minute, self contained adventure. It'll be fun." The return of Doctor Who in 2009 after nothing since a book series in the mid nineties ruffled feathers not just because it had a black...

    An Althernate History Rec List List

    For a while now I’ve really wished this website had a culture of Rec Lists. It seems a shame how old timelines get lost and new members have to try and catch up on a canon of work when it’s never really described what is important and what’s not. To try to fill that gap, I plan to write a...

    CSA wins the peace

    Most the threads I've seen here make the assumption that if the CSA had won the war, it would have lost the peace. The reasoning is very sound, the south lagged behind in terms of industry, couldn't coordinate the federal government very well, and would have massive internal racial and class...

    Abstentionist UKIP

    In OTL, one of the criticisms levelled against UKIP is that they claim a high rate of expenses in the EU parliament but don't attend many parliamentary sessions. What if, instead of simply not going to very many parliamentary meetings, they made a policy of going to none at all? Someone said to...

    That Hippy, Blair

    That Hippy, Blair A History of Great Britain's Green Parties What? This is a time-line about a politician named Tony. It's also about the Green Party, how it came about, and the sort of conflicts that arise with new parties. It's not a Green Party wank, unless it goes horribly wrong. My plan...

    Douglas Hurd as Conservative leader

    It seems to me that Hurd's biggest weakness in the 1990 leadership election was that he didn't canvass early enough, and Major had Thatcher's support. How possible would it have been for him to win a Conservative leadership competition? It strikes me that if Thatcher won the first round of the...

    Kinnock at Maastricht

    How would the Maastricht Treaty have gone if somehow, instead of Thatcher, Kinnock had been the one handling negotiations on Maastricht? I understand he is slightly more supportive of Europe than Thatcher. But did he favour an inter-governmental approach at the time, or a federalist model? If...

    Britain Survives Black Wednesday

    First, Hello, nice to meet you, multiple apologies if this has been discussed before/is boring to you. I've been thinking recently about Black Wednesday. Why did Britain end up failing to stay in the ERM? Could it have been avoided? And if so, at what cost? It seems that for Britain to stay in...
