Our Revolution (Seketese: Mays Omysan) is a Seketese political party. Established in January 2020 as a broadly anti-corruption movement, its coalition includes nationalist, social democrat, centrist, pro-European, and COVID-19 anti-lockdown factions.

The party was founded by Conelibek mayor Dani Kjord and comedian Simy Brasa in early 2020 before the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Its original base was to address corruption in Seketan, with special opposition to the Société Conelibek. Brasa's continued popularity as a political commentator on television and social media led to an enormous growth in popularity with the party. Brasa himself became leader of the party in 2021, succeeding Emyn Onsyn, and led the party to a landslide victory in the 2021 election.

In 2022 the party lost 38 MP's to defections due agovernment crisis, losing their majority and forcing a coalition government.

History

The parties origine starts in 2018 with then MH Dani Kjord's public resignation from the then governing Socialist Party. Kjord game from the party's small liberal faction, which had been increasingly sidelined during Prime Minister Eris Kellisyen's government. This move fueled speculation, given that Conelibek Mayoral election was just months away.
