After a ten-year stint in government, the Progressive Unity Party headed into the 1990 Malgravean General Election in a rather weakened position due to the decision of several senior members of the party to step back from politics. At the same time, the Conservative Action Party was experiencing a resurgence following on from defeats in 1985 and 1980.
Election Issues
In 1987 the economy started to show signs of stagnation and unemployment in the country started to increase. As a result economic issues formed a major part of the election campaign, and every political party in Malgrave put forward their own economic proposals. As the Progressive Unity Party were in government they received criticism from all sides for their handling of the economy and their relative inexperience meant that they handled this poorly.
At this time, the Conservative Action Party proposed a radical change to the structure of the economy to try and inject some energy into it and spur on growth. All of these plans were controversial at the time and were questionable in their popularity, however, the pledge of the Conservative Party to implement a technocratic review of these policies proved popular and attracted a lot of younger voters to their cause.
