Coup or No Coup?

Senator Norman Prichliark addressing constituents at the "Light Pure, Mind Strong - Justice for unborn children rally in Himledon, AT"

Insiders close to Senator Norman Prichliark says that he is close to having the numbers to call for an leadership spill ( aka a special caucus which declares the leadership of the party vacant and open to contest, whoever wins will end up as party leader) against Chancellor Van Smorten. This comes after months of poor polling among voters and by-election and state election defeats to the resurgent opposition Workers Party.

Over the course of the past few weeks, senators and allies of the incumbent Unionist Party have openly questioned the Chancellor's policies and leadership abilities; with one calling on the chancellor to "leave honorably". Sources close to the chancellor have admitted that morale is sinking lower week by week, with one aide telling the Star that "He knows he's bound to go soon."

However, sources say that Senator Prichliark's camp has not been able to win over the backing of Senators from Artarmy state, who question whether the strongly social conservative and gaffe prone Prichliark would be able to connect with voters in the looming general elections.
