Dubois in a "precarious" position

Olivier Dubois's role as Président of the Parti Hosien-Démocrate is "precarious", according to a senior source inside the party. Rildanor National News understands that tensions are building within the party over whether Dubois continues to be the right man to lead.

The revelations came after a poor showing for the party in the 3801 elections, where the PHD lost half their seats in the Sénat. The party were expected to lose seats as the nation adjusted to four-party politics, but the scale of the loss was said to have shocked many in the party.

It is believed that Dubois survives in the role thanks to his strong personal showing in the Premier Ministre election, which he led after the first round of voting, but ultimately lost to incumbent Premier Ministre Linus, duc de Dimitri-en-Thallori. Dubois polled far ahead of the party, and it is this public popularity that may have kept him in his post.

If Dubois were to be replaced as Président du Parti, the bookies' early favourites to replace him include Home Affairs spokesman Alexandre Noel and Vincent Maillard, the Finance spokesman, who is expected to be named as Health Minister in the forthcoming unity government.
