Yeah, that sounds about right. Who becomes Conservative leader after '82?

That is the one part I'm having a problem with. I'm not sure if Heseltine would still be there to win in 1990 is he would've lost of Healey in '86 (even though it was a '91-esque victory for Labour). I'm thinking that it should be someone close to the Thatcher wing of the party (but not to close, since that would make it too hard to succeed her in the first place), because then Heseltine could jump in after the loss in '86 talking about modernization of the party, etc. I'm just not sure who it should be.

Probably a safe pair of hands like Whitelaw or Howe.

I think I'm gonna go with Whitelaw. Howe would have a harder time than him winning the leadership election due to his position as Shadow Chancellor under Thatcher.

Anyway...

Leaders of the Labour Party
1976-1985: Jim Callaghan
1985-1990: Denis Healey
1990-1995: John Smith†*
1995-2006: Gordon Brown
2006-present: Jack Straw

*Died two days after the 1995 election.

Leaders of the Conservative Party
1975-1982: Margaret Thatcher
1982-1987: William Whitelaw
1987-2000: Michael Heseltine
2000-2011: William Hague
2011-present: David Davis
 
That's a rather tragic fate for John Smith. Totally seems like it could happen though.

Indeed. If he hadn't died in '94 OTL I do feel that the stress of an election campaign could really have killed him in the end anyway. It'd actually be quite interesting to read a TL where he does go on to lead Labour all the way until 1997 until finally he dies just a few days or weeks before the election.

Reading that, written out in that way as it is, it becomes very easy to see how someone from an ATL could look at it as any other list of monarchs and go, 'ASB :rolleyes:'.

Reading that, written out in that way as it is, it becomes very easy to see how someone from an ATL could look at it as any other list of monarchs and go, 'ASB :rolleyes:'.

Some of the monarchs' cognomens do seem rather unlikely. But the French's ones are even better. I might do lists of European monarchs later, maybe organise them into a big database of OTL lists on another thread.
 
Well, after the English-Scottish-British monarch list, I've decided to show the Frankish-French list for comparison. Underlined names show the monarch in question was also an emperor.

Modern Claimants to the throne of France:
The Legitimists: Refuse to recognize the July Monarchy and all subsequent governments. Union Legitimists refuse to recognize Henri d'Artois, the Comte de Chambourd's naming of Philippe of Paris as his heir. Current Legitimist Claimant is Louis Alphonse, Duke of Anjou, who would be Louis XX (House of Capet-Bourbon-Anjou)
The Orleanists: Refuse to recognize the Second French Republic and all subsequent governments. Current Orleanist Claimant is Henri, Comte de Paris et Duc de France, who would be Henry VII (House of Capet-Bourbon-Orleans)
The Bonapartists: Refuse to recognize the Paris Commune and all subsequent governments, as well as the Restoration governments. The Bonapartist claimant is either Charles Napoleon Bonaparte, who would be Napoleon VII (House of Bonaparte), or his son Jean-Christophe Napoleon Bonaparte, who claims the same number.
The Jacobites: Yes, the Jacobites. Refusing to recognize the Hannoverians means they don't recognize George III's renunciation of the English crown's claim to France.

1-2-3-4-We-Don't-Want-Your-Fucking-War!

Student risings in the 1960s turn into literal student risings in the 1970s, with a 'Second American Revolution' (or as modern, hippie textbooks would have it, the 'Revolution of Peace and Love') in 1976, a subsequent Second American Civil War (or the 'War for Human Dignity and Understanding', 1976-83) and a new, decentralized government eventually replaced by a stronger one in the late 1980s.

Oh, and the Soviet Union is still around, having taken full advantage of the United States' disarray during the hippie revolution.

Presidents of the United States, 1961-present
1961-1963: John F. Kennedy (Democrat) [1]
1963-1969: Lyndon B. Johnson (Democrat) [2]
1969-1974: Richard M. Nixon (Republican) [3]
1974-1981: Gerald R. Ford (Republican / National Unity) [4]
1981-1983: Jimmy Carter (National Unity) [5]
1983-1989: Presidency abolished. Direct rule by the First Revolutionary Congress
1989-1997: Mark Rudd (Socialist) [6]
1997-2001: Tom Hayden (Socialist)
2001-present: Ralph Nader (Green)


[1] First Roman Catholic elected President. Assassinated in 1963 by Lee Harvey Oswald (corporate government propaganda, according to the new textbooks, which pin the blame on a combination of LBJ, the mafia, the Teamsters, and J. Edgar Hoover with the aid of the CIA)

[2] One of the devils of the new regime, despite his work on civil rights. Lately, there has been some effort to rehabilitate LBJ's image, though the 'Crime of the Century' (Vietnam) is still the biggest stumbling block to his under the new government.

[3] Resigned, though pardoned by Gerald Ford. That didn't stop the new government from putting him on trial after his capture at Yorba Linda in the late 1970s, though. Died in a prison cell in the 1990s.

[4] With the uprising starting full-swing in '76, Ford chose a Democrat, Jimmy Carter, as his running mate in the 1976 Presidential Election. He carried every one of the states, largely thanks to an ongoing boycott on the part of the opposition parties.

[5] 'The Man Who Signed Away the Country' in the eyes of the conservative elements of the country. Carter assumed office after winning an uncontested 1980 election and eventually signed the agreement that formally transferred the functions of the United States government to the Democratic Revolutionary Army in 1983.

[6] The Socialist Party won the first Presidential election following the restoration of the office in 1989.

just a question as she came to the crown married wouldn't it be the House of Dudley (or Northumberland)?

No, the name of the woman's house doesn't change on marriage, it's just that their children take on the father's house. Like, Victoria was House of Hanover to her death. Apparently Lady Jane Grey is officially "House of Grey, cadet line of House of Tudor".
