Yesterday evening, senior spokesman of the Black Star anarchist group, and main supporter of the Radical Liberty Party denounced the leadership in a stunning betrayal. RLU leader Harrison Vasquez is known for consolidating the party platform to a broad libertarian base, controversially inviting anarchist and nationalist militias to what was formally a strictly right-leaning party. In addition to this, he made the decision to democratize the party platform, a move that has lead to the party drifting towards the centre-left of the political spectrum.

After the denouncement, several primary supporters launched no-confidence vote. In an exclusive interview, Marco Tindall, a senior right-wing party member, told the Republic: "We don't feel as though this party represents the views it originally had. It's fragmented, it's chaotic, and it's all due to the choices Mr. Vasquez made"

Harrison Vasquez resigned shortly after the no-confidence vote was called. He was not available to comment. Leadership elections will take place in a few days. But with only a few months left until the 4436 elections, can the RLU present a combined electoral force? Only time will tell.
