  1. Think of the Djurgården Boys - A Co-Operative Wikibox TL

    Same here:D

  2. Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes II

    Kinnock has to either be from Pennsylvania - strong mining industry went into industrial decline etc.... or from Delaware because Biden.

  3. WI A More Convincing Labour Victory in 1964's UK General Election?

    Could always go down the "Gaitskell doesn't die" route, although Wilson was much more charismatic and media conscious than Gaitskell, Gaitskell was seen by the public as more trustworthy and more moderate as well as having more experience in government as Chancellor. It ought to be remembered...

  4. President Ronald Reagan (1977-1985), highlights and lowlights

    Having Reagan win re-election in '80 is going to be a tough act, depends who he faces in 1980, Jerry Brown, Kennedy, Gary Hart, etc.....

  5. WI: Hitler is killed in WWI

    Might see the DNVP emerge as the main right wing, militarist, anti-Semitic force in Germany

  6. WI Britain surrenders in 1940

    Best POD is for Churchill to somehow mess up in those crucial days in early May 1940, and Halifax becomes PM instead. Halifax then might be able to convince the war cabinet to agree to an armistice in late May/June 1940. Without British support its unlikely the 1941 Yugoslav coup would've...

  7. How do Confederate political parties (realistically) develop post-Davis?

    Probably a pro states rights, agrarian based party, latter day Jeffersonians of sorts and a more nationalist (more, but by all means still strongly in favour of states rights), pro modernisaiton, pro industrialisation party. Both would be fundamentally conservative

  10. AHC: President returns to politics

    Reagan initially considered having Gerald Ford as his running mate

  11. Is Man in the High Castle ASB?

    Yes, in my view I cant see why the Nazis would want to invade the US, it just seems so wrong, and in a Japan vs US pacific war the US would eventually win. In a Nazi victory scenario, it would probably end in a US vs Germany cold war a la Fatherland (although parts of Fatherland are ASB too...

  12. The Alternate Cabinets Thread

    Portillo Cabinet, July 1996: Prime Minister - Michael Portillo Deputy Prime Minister - Norman Fowler Chancellor - Kenneth Clarke Foreign Secretary - John Redwood Home Secretary - Michael Howard Defence Secretary - David Davis Health Secretary - Ann Widdecombe Trade and Industry Secretary -...

  13. WI: Theodore Roosevelt Runs for and Wins His Third Term

    He'd make Taft Chief Justice, do a little more trust busting, but that's about it. He might go for Root as his successor, but I thought he was looking more at grooming Charles Evans Hughes into his heir apparent? Hughes would easily win in 1912, then a Democrat in 1916 due to the war, and then...

  14. WI: Brown calls an election in 2007

    Im much more pessimistic about the size of Labour's majority, im thinking around 10-15 seats. In that situation, and assuming that there'd probably be by-election's due to expenses in 2009-10, what are the possibilities of Lib Lab Pact 2: Callaghanesque bugaloo?

  15. List alternate PMs or Presidents

    That's a nice list Although id say Heseltine would fit in better than Biffen, and David Owen better than Alistair Campbell

  16. Healey defeats Foot for Labour Leadership, 1980

    There would be turmoil within the party, but the left would never have been prepared to split off from the party, and the gang of three would never have left the party had Healey won. Foot would've remained deputy leader. Roy Jenkins would probably have simply defected to the Liberals, but I...

  17. WI: Gerald Ford Assassinated

    Rocky would become President, his choice for Veep would probably be someone like George Bush Snr, Rumsfeld, Dole or possibly Dick Cheney. A moderate, centrist republican, which would really annoy the right. Rocky would probably run in '76, but I don't think he could beat Reagan.

  18. Australian WI: Malcolm Fraser Calls A Snap Election In 1982

    Fraser may well just hang on, but it would've been a very close run election. Personally though I think Hayden would have won, with a tiny majority 63-65 seats. Based on the Flinders by-election swing of 2%, a 2% swing to the ALP at a federal election would give Hayden about 65 seats. Of course...

  19. Ted Kennedy's Running Mate

    In '72 probably a southerner, maybe the fresh young governor of Georgia?;) In '80 my money is on Bentsen.

  20. DBWI: Putin had run in 2012

    Would've made very little difference, Putin has been de facto leader of Russia since 2000
