The United Country Party was a political party in Kenya.

History[edit]

The United Country Party was established by Michael Blundell in July 1954.^[1][2] Its formation was primarily aimed at supporting the Lyttleton Constitution. Although it supported multi-racialism, the party's membership was limited to Europeans, and it opposed common roll elections or opening the White Highlands to other races.^[1]

In the 1956 general elections party members ran as independents, winning six seats to the eight won by the Independent Group,^[3] who opposed the constitution.

In January 1957. the party was dissolved.^[1] Blundell founded another party, the New Kenya Party, in 1959.
