The Demokrat Parti

Eight hours ago, Adnan Menderes triumphantly announced the debut of Turkey's newest and most dangerous opposition party: the Demokrat Parti. He announced that the Demokrat Parti intended to topple the CHP's monopoly on power, and that the country would be steered in a brand new direction the likes of which has never been seen before. The three pillars of the party were unveiled to jubilant crowds, with Menderes pledging his government would be committed to Faith, Fatherland, and Freedom - in that order. More surprising was Menderes' announcement that a DP-led Turkey would be decidedly more interventionist than any other Turkish government since the nation's founding. The announcement was met with fury inside Kemalist circles, and the Turkish leader has pledged to his supporters in Istanbul today that even if the election will be harder fought than initially believed the CHP shall emerge from the upcoming election still the governing leaders of the nation.
