Every town (at least in America) needs a Mayor, and Unity finds its civic leadership in the amiable Democrat Punnington. Rotund and jolly and always dapper in his trademark plaid suits, he greets his constituents with a wave and a smile - particularly those who contribute generously to the Mayor's Fund, a special charity set up to help the disadvantaged in Unity. Recent allegations by an unscrupulous scandal-monger on the staff of TheUnityTimesChronicle that money goes into the Fund but never noticably out are unsubstantiated, as evidenced by the paper's removing said reporter from its staff.
