Adair Scott

The Right Honorable Adair Crisdean Scott (born 2 January 1953) is the current Prime Minister of the Resurgent Dream. He has led the Labor Party ever since Abraham Goldfarb resigned the leadership in December of 2005. It was in the same month that the Labor Party became the head of the Progressive Coalition, doing slightly better in the elections than the previously dominant Liberal Party.

Under Scott, the Progressives have the narrowest of majorities in Parliament. Combined with the many conflicts between the parties which make up his coalition, this forces Scott to pursue a much more centrist agenda than he might otherwise desire.

Scott has largely continued the foreign policy of his predecessor, Minerva Karamanlis. Part of this policy has been trying to maintain strong alliances with Pantocratoria and Excalbia on the one hand and Knootoss on the other, despite the frequent tensions between them. More controversial has been the Resurgent Dream's continued military presence in Marlund. While the Second Ambaran War began with enormous Danaan public support, the continued military presence in Marlund after the war's end has become more and more controversial as time has elapsed. Criticism of the war effort reached the level of outright opposition from the left wing of the Progressives when a Pantocratorian action in the city of Beyke, an action against Marxist-Leninist revolutionaries rather than remnants of the former government of Marlund, led to massive civilian casualties.
