Thomas FitzGerald is a British politician and leader of the Asian Pride Party.

[edit] Early Years

Thomas FitzGerald was born on 12th January 1961 in Zeebrugge, Belgium. When he was only six years old, he was forced to flee with his mother to England to escape from the invading Roman army, hiding himself under the wheelarch of a chariot heading for the channel tunnel, along with 56 Albanians. His family (who he honoured greatly) settled in the small village of Down T'pit in North Yorkshire, where he attended the local comprehensive school. After displaying good academic performance at the school (being able to read by age 13), he progressed to a sixth form college, where he gained 3 A-Levels at good grades. He applied to Cambridge University, where, through their policy of positive discrimination in favour of Northerners (especially those with dodgy accents), he was able to gain a place, reading Asian Studies. He graduated with a 2.1 degree.

After graduation, FitzGerald moved to Tokyo, where, in a local café by the name of "Rice House", he met his wife-to-be, Osaka. After remaining in Tokyo for five years, he married Osaka and moved to Shanghai in mainland China, fearful of being re-taken by force. However, Osaka was constantly being 'interviewed' by Chinese police, who accused her of being a spy. In the light of this, they decided to return to England and settled in Belgravia, London.

[edit] Asian Pride Party

In 1996, Tom and his wife Osaka, set up the Asian Pride Party with the aid of others such as Chairman Moo, Kim Mentally-Il and Junichiro Hairzumi. The membership was initially small, with membership in single figures for the first five years. The annual subscription was ten pounds. The Party did not contest the 1997 or 2001 general elections, citing lack of suitable candidates and funds.

[edit] 2005 General Election

In late 2004, Tartan girl announced that in the general election of 2005, the Party would put up a candidate for the first time. They decided to field their leader, Tom FitzGerald, as a candidate in the seat of Hexham. He campaigned vigourously using the slogan on "Got Rice Bitch", and also concentrating his efforts on his support for the repeal of the Chinese Exclusion Act. In the end, he received 129 votes, which was described as "Splendid, Gregorian old chap" by the Party.

[edit] Plans For The Future

The Party has not indicated whether it will field candidates again in general elections, although this is considered likely, for the television tells us that the Party is gaining popularity.
