Welcome to the Model House of Commons! You can use this thread to join a party - just comment the name of the party you want to join below, and it will automatically ping the leadership of that party. You can also declare yourself an independent here, if you don't want to join a party.

You can read the most recent version of each party's manifesto below. You can also check the "Current Parties" sheet on the master spreadsheet for short summaries of a party's ideology. The master spreadsheet also lists the main leadership contact of each party, if you want to ask any questions.

There is also a New Members Guide - just click the button on the sidebar (to the right) to access that. If you have any initial questions, the New Members Guide might be a good place to start.

If you have any questions, you can message the moderators - we're always happy to help. Have fun!

Parties

Parties are the larger type of group within the sim, with consistently high membership and activity levels.

​

Independent Groupings

Groupings are smaller than parties - usually only a few members, or sometimes as few as one. They may be newer, or represent a more niche set of policies.

Devolved Parties

Parties that run in the devolved legislatures of either Wales or Scotland.

​

​

Discord

Discord is a messaging app that we use - you can download it here. It's not mandatory, but it is a pretty important part of the sim - many parties organise on Discord, and a lot of MHoC-related announcements are made via Discord too. The link to the Main Discord server is in the sidebar (the button marked "Discord"), but can also be found here - if you join a party, that party's leadership will link you to their party Discord too.

A permanent link that also works is discord.gg/MHoC
