The Orange Party (Dellish: Oranjepartij, Weranian: Orange Partei, OP, Kirenian: Oranžerakond, OE) is an Alslandic right-wing populist political party.

The party was founded in 2021 by Elsert Wassenaar as a merger between the National Rally and United Democratic Union parties to create a unified right-wing bloc in the Folkssenaat. After an initial leadership contest between Wassenaar and Alof Oosterbaan, Oosterbaan left the party along with some of the party's local representatives and created Team Oosterbaan. Recently other political parties have opened up to working with the Orange Party and the party is a member of numerous local coalitions although it still sits in opposition on the national level. The party is the junior member of the governing coalition in Burnshire with the National Bloc and Garz with Progressive Alliance. The party is a member of the 44th Government of Alsland after it tripled the amount of Senators representing the party in the Senate.

The party's current President and founder is Elsert Wassenaar. The Orange Party holds 2 out of Alsland's 23 seats in the Euclean Parliament and 31 in the Folkssenaat.

History

Ideology

The Orange Party's current party programme claims the party represents the interests of "the regular voter" over the interests of any specific division or group. The party aims to preserve Alsland's independence from foreign interests and promotes a restrictive immigration policy particularly against immigrants from outside the Euclean Community. It is against Alslandic membership in the ECDTO and favours a balanced approach towards Alsland's relationship with the ECDTO and MAO as well as reforming Alsland's close relationship with Valduvia to be "friendly but respective of differences". The party also opposes foreign interventions inside CN Peacekeeping missions. The party also wants to cut Alsland's foreign aid budget significantly and reinvest money into domestic services like healthcare and law and order.

The party takes a hard-line stance on immigration, security, law and order and foreign policy which are among it's "core pillars" which are non-negotiable to the party. The party opposes racism and Functionalism, it also opposes identity politics and has labelled cancel culture and mass immigration as the two biggest threats to Alsland's identity and stability.

Immigration

The party has described Alsland's immigration policy as "the greatest failure of a generation" and says that efforts at integration must be advanced to stop the establishment of ghettoes. The party attracted criticism ahead of the 2022 Alslandic legislative election after one of it's candidate's, Yannick Sehlmann, claimed the Súdlikthús neighbourhood in Yndyk was "full of crime, poverty and drugs" and implied that illegal immigration was the cause of this. Sehlmann also said Súdlikthús was "full of illiterates and thiefs" and said the party would look into deporting residents of Súdlikthús who were in the country illegally. The party supports deporting refugees from Tsabara to "safe first countries" at the earliest possible opportunity and it also supports creating a common-EC border force to halt refugees crossing the Aurean Straits which the party refers to as the "Aurean Crisis". The party's proposals on immigration have largely been side-lined by other political parties as well as the media although their views on immigration played a key role in the formation of the 44th Government of Alsland. In the party's policy platform for 2023 it says it wants to integrate immigrants who "are clearly a positive for the economy and their communities" quickly and allow high-skilled immigrants to enter the country and begin the immigration process whilst separating out low-skilled immigrants who should not be allowed into the country. The party points to the refugee crisis during the Weranian Genocide in Valduvia as a model for integrating large quantities of refugees into society and providing for a safe return to their home country as soon as realistically possible.

The party has proposed limiting freedom of movement in the Zilverzee Area to Euclean Community nationals and has called the lack of this policy "a major security issue that should be rectified". After Theresia Hochberg was appointed to the Euclean Commission as the Commissioner for Continental Security she vowed to look into ways at improving security within the Euclean Community but warned against 'rocking the boat too much at the moment'. A poll conducted during the 2022 Alslandic legislative election found that a plurality of immigrant voters had supported the party at the election, narrowly beating ASAY and Liveable Alsland respectively. The poll found 31% of North Euclean respondants backed the party compared to 9% for ASAY and 18% for Liveable Alsland, the differences for other groups was much less significant.
