Foreign Secretary Salisbury calls for regional collaboration and a reformation of the Artanian Union.
"Luthori have a problem with internationalism", for Foreign Secretary Salisbury
May 5229

Fort-William, Luthori: The Foreign Secretary, Lord James Salisbury, after successfully negotiating an agreement with Beiteynu, ending a diplomatic crisis between the two nations, which began in 5215, with the assassination of Baruch Lea Tzarfir, former Prime Minister of Beiteynu and Head of the Terran Remediation Agency (TRA), by a subject of His Majesty, hidden in Malivia, who was arrested by a police raid, in collaboration between Malivia and Beiteynu, a political and diplomatic crisis ensued in Luthori and Beiteynu, Beiteynu having, for a few months, cut off all diplomatic relations with Luthori, in Luthori, too, the situation was not very simple and rosy, motions coming from parties in parliament, aimed at destroying diplomatic relations between Luthori and Beiteynu almost passed the House of Commons, like this motion called : The Motion to Condemn baseless allegations & downgrading diplomatic relations with Beiteynu, created and proposed by Luthorian Labour, it is seen as the only motion, which wanted to end all diplomatic relations with Beiteynu, with the best chance of passing the House of Communes. The Foreign Secretary at the time, Martin Smith, in Kimberly Bush's National Unity Cabinet, did try to negotiate a deal with Beiteynu, but that did not pass the Diet. Finally, it was the Foreign Secretary, James Salisbury, who negotiated, with the help of the leadership of the Luthorian Labor and the Liberal Socialist Party, who succeeded in negotiating a deal with the government of the State of Beiteynu.

After the end of this crisis, the Foreign Minister is now seeking to have Luthori continue his policy of reviving internationalism, during a speech at a university in Fort-William, he said:

Luthori's weakness is that his diplomatic network is not extensive enough, Luthori is isolated on the world and regional diplomatic scene, having locked himself in himself, is isolated against the great powers of the region and the world. Today, there is a lot of work to be done at the level of the Foreign Office, we must definitely get out of our bubble in which we have been for decades and to fully return to the objective in which we have set ourselves, internationalization of Luthori.


The Foreign Secretary Salisbury is known to promote cooperation with the countries of Artania, especially Dorvik, which is considered by many to be the hegemon of the continent and Kundrati, a country which Luthori has become very close to since his last years, a project that is very close to the heart of the Foreign Secretary is the restoration of the Artanian Union and the collaboration of all the countries of Artania in a single economic supernational organization.

The Foreign Secretary is working with the Trade and Industry Secretary, Lilliana Huber, to find countries that can work with Luthori on trade and diplomacy, advances from countries like Likatonia, which several parties accuse of interfering in Luthori's internal affairs , sought to rebuild economic and diplomatic relations. Other countries, have interests to defend in Luthori, like Kundrati, via the ferry between Jidrath and Shipleyriding, Istalia, which could invest in the economy of Luthori. All these countries are in the sights of the Foreign Secretary, to create a real diplomatic network of Luthori.

The Foreign Office is in contact with the chancelleries of all Artania to restart the Artanian Union, the Foreign Office has also announced that Salisbury could make a tour of the continent of Artania during the next months, the Foreign Office is currently contacting the embassies and the governments of the countries involved in this tour, which will serve to develop economic and political relations between the different countries of Artania.

The Northminster Gazette
Government to put 200 million into agriculture, to help farmers, and restart the agricultural industry of the Empire.
"We need to be self-sufficient in food, the government will put in place a price reduction plan for Luthorians and a boost to our farmers, to fill the hole made by its rebates," says the Secretary to Food and Agriculture, Robert Fullbright.
August 5229

Fort-William, Luthori: Luthori's agriculture sector has been in decline and crisis for decades, those decades in which our agriculture industry more or less died out, Luthori seeking produce elsewhere overseas and farmers abandoning their farms and their fields in order to be able to settle in the big city, where they hope to find work quickly. This existential crisis for our farmers has not lasted since today, because indeed, no major policy on the agricultural sector has been made for about 200 years, whether by governments of the left or the right. During this period, many peasants decided to leave the vast countryside areas, located in Erneshire or Northriding, to join the vastly industrialized regions of Orange or Shipleyriding.

The Government is looking for a way to relaunch Luthori's agricultural production, with a plan to relaunch and develop the economy of the sector, through the "Buy Luthorian First" plan, a media campaign to tell the population to buy local products in first, often cheaper than products imported from abroad, the problem is that the fields lack people to work there, the government is looking for a relief plan for the agricultural sector, to convince people living in the city to go to the campaign to work on it, give them funds to start their business and operations, help with grants that will be provided by the government to fill the gaps in the finances, and funds to help the operations still standing to help them fight crisis.


The government, but especially the Imperial Conservative Union will soon introduce, with the New Economic Plan, the Farmers Relief Act, a law that will promote food made in Luthori and help farmers and their farms, with funds released to help them. , after the government will cut prices to make Luthorians buy fruits, vegetables or other products, made in Luthori, rather than buying products from other countries. The Food and Agriculture Secretary, Robert Fulbright, said:

We need to be self-sufficient in food, the government is going to put in place a price reduction plan for Luthorians and a boost to our farmers, to fill the hole made by their rebates. The government will help buyers and farmers to make products more accessible and cheaper to produce for our farmers.

The government's legislative agenda is rather heavy, with the New Economic Act, the National Security Act, which will reform the Imperial Security Service, disbanded years ago to be replaced by two government agencies. There is also the War Measures Act and now the Agricultural Relief Act.

Former Prime Minister John Maguire resigns from office and from the ICU's Leadership.
January 5231

Image
Former PM and Leader of the Imperial Conservative Union, John Maguire, leaving the 10 Crown Street for the last time as Prime Minister

Fort-William, Luthori: Prime Minister Maguire has announced his decision to step down as Prime Minister and as leader of the Imperial Conservative Union, a post he would normally hold for only a few months, but victory in the last parliamentary election meant that the leadership of the Imperial Conservative Union, decided that Sir John Maguire would become Prime Minister and leader of the ICU, this term was done under the basis of tensions between members of the cabinet, and the leadership of the ICU with Maguire, which has hampered the work of the government, after these legislative elections, Maguire had already announced his intention to resign from his post, wanting to avoid that the ICU be hit badly for his legacy. During his resignation speech, he announced that:

My work as Prime Minister has been strewn with pitfalls, failures and successes, my government has tried to put in place the program for which, very surprisingly, we were elected. I thank my staff for accompanying me until the end of this government, I am sad not to have been able to complete my mandate to the end, but I am delighted to have been able to set up part of my program. This departure from 10 Crown Street also tells me something, I must announce that I have been diagnosed with lung cancer. I will fight as always during my political career, with strength and will. My political career is now over, with this government having made me proud, today my successor will become the new Prime Minister of this great nation and whoever comes after me, I hope he will not destroy my work and that of this administration. Thank you, good luck to my successor and God Save Luthori.


The next elections to elect the new leader of the Imperial Conservative Union will take place during the month of March this year, already, several candidates have managed to stand out, George Marshall, former retired soldier, rather considered a reactionary, close to the Idealist community, William Humphrey, an economist, who is looking for a way to restore the competitiveness of the Lutheran economy, who makes an alliance with the Minister-President of the Duchy of Shipleyriding, Mark Lang, close to the Technocrats, and the Home Secretary, Lord Abraham Garner, close to members of the opportunist faction, rather considered a liberal-conservative, wanting to reform his party to be more acceptable to the establishment.

The Imperial Conservative Union is a party that seeks after the general elections that took place during this month, the party composing the government lost about 20 seats, going from 101 seats during the last legislature to 83 during this legislature. The party is looking for a new wind, to be able to rebound in the next elections, so Maguire's resignation is seen as unfortunate, but good, in the interest of the party.

Imperial Conservative Union-Blue Coalition Government?

After the general election it was seen by scholars that the ICU and the Blue Coalition together have enough seats to form a government with the support of another political party in the House of Commons, the two blocs together have 149 seats, but it is likely that another party could agree to the formation of a right-wing cabinet. But the ICU and the LCP are traditional enemies, especially during the leadership of Kimberly Bush and John Maguire, when both parties insulted each other by name, now that Maguire has left office and it is likely that Bush does the same, could we see a rapprochement between the LCP and the ICU to make the interests of conservatism and liberalism triumph in Luthori? Thing to be seen, but the probability of the formation of this government comes down to looking at the change of leadership within the two parties.

Movement for Luthori, big winner of these elections

The big winner of these elections was the alliance called Movement for Luthori (MfL), made up of several parties, Luthorian Labour, List Hunperdinck and the Democratic Movement Party. These three parties are considered to be centrist and had great difficulty integrating into the normally right-wing dominated Luthori political landscape after their victory, they are said to be very close to forming a government with the LSP and PCP, two parties which were harshly criticized by the alliance, during the time of its opposition, the formation of the government and these members are hidden from the public, but it is said that the LH would obtain the post of Prime Minister.

Prime Minister's Resignation Honours.

As Maguire resigned, he must give his recommendation to the King-Emperor, he decided to advise the Emperor to give titles to several political personalities coming from several political parties of Luthori, here is the non-exhaustive list:

From the ICU:
Lord Anthony Williams, to become Baron, become 1st Baron Williams of the Baronet of Williams.
Lord James Salisbury, to become Baron, to become 1st Baron of Salisbury
Baron Thomas Williamson, to become Duke, to become 1st Duke of Gungshire.
LL:
Sir David Ferresen, former Prime Minister of Luthori, to become Lord, will become Lord David Ferresen.
Sir Kyle Carlston, former Prime Minister of Luthori, to become Baron, will become 1st Baron Carlston, Baronet of Kingston.
Justin Greenwood, to become Sir, will become Sir Justin Greenwood.
Stuart Gilibert, to become Sir, will become Sir Stuart Gilbert.
LH:
Henry Hunperdinck, to become Sir, will become Sir Henry Hunperdinck
LCP:
Kimberly Bush, former Prime Minister of Luthori, to become Lady, will become Lady Kimberly Bush

This is the list of all the personalities who are in the list of recommendations given to the Emperor by the outgoing PM.

Archibald Mangley is elected new leader of the Imperial Conservative Union, after a very tight election.
July 5231

Image
Senior ICU's politicians waiting for the results of the Imperial Conservative Union's Conference.

Ackerley, Luthori: After the announcement of the resignation of John Maguire, the Tories had to call for internal elections to elect the new leader of the Imperial Conservative Union, several candidates expressed their intention of wanting to become the Leader of the Imperial Conservative Union. Candidates coming from the idealist caucus, a very conservative current within the ICU, Technocrats, a current centered on economic proposals, the Opportunists, more focused on bringing the ICU into the various governments that will be formed in In the future, there are other factions considered "minor" by members of the major factions, such as the Liberals, who want to reform the ICU so that it becomes more socially and economically liberal, and the Conservatives, who favor a continuation of the pre-reformation race, a race to have the conservative vote in the country.

Even if the factions mentioned above are considered "minor" by the other factions, this one will be at the forefront during this election. Indeed, 13 candidates presented themselves in the internal election, Lord James Salisbury, Foreign Secretary presented himself as a candidate close to the Opportunists, William Humphrey, an economist close to the Imperial Conservative Union, being one of its donors , he is an economist, who was elected as an MP and declared his candidacy, very recently, he is considered a candidate as being close to the interests of the Economists, whose interests he frequently defends, for the Idealists , one of the only caucuses to have officially presented a candidate for their faction, named General George Marshall, a retired general, considered a reactionary personality, and having been indicted several times in coup attempts. failed state. Archibald Mangley, a personality from the status quo, former whip, and being in favor of a consolidation of the traditional base of the Imperial Conservative Union, to be able to better fight the other parties by having a solid base, a base which is sought by many other parties like the Luthorian Conservative Party. The last candidate who is worth the detour is Caroll Weakman, a candidate considered close to the Liberals, favorable to ideas of party reforms to better form governments without feeling the blockage of the Maguire Government.

During the campaign, which lasted 6 months after Maguire's resignation, had its ups and downs, due to a lack of support from his peers, the Liberal-aligned candidate, Caroll Weakman, decided to stand withdraw from the race and support Lord James Salisbury, close to the opportunists, for the race for leadership. Attacks between candidates escalated throughout the campaign, two debates were held towards the end of the campaign, on the Luthorian Broadcasting Corporation (LBC) and Channel 7, the debates were described as polite, constructive and courteous, according to editorialists and specialists. But before the end of the campaign, a candidate decides to withdraw from the race, former General George Marshall decided to withdraw from the race, after a medical diagnosis, that he diagnosed him with Alzheimer's disease, and after consultation with his team, he declared his support for Archibald Mangley, candidate of the conservatives, favorable to the status quo and to the continuation of the policy of social conservatism and economic liberalism of the Imperial Conservative Union.

The coming duel was a fight between Lord James Salisbury, Foreign Secretary, close to the Opportunists and wanting to moderate the Imperial Conservative Union to make it more acceptable to the public and other political parties, Archibald Mangley, in favor of a continuation of the policy of the Imperial Conservative Union to continue its conservative policies on the social level and liberal on the economic level and finally William Humphrey, one of the largest donors to the ICU, close to the economist caucus, wanting to solidify the liberal position of the ICU and create an economic agenda for the future. The results were as follows, there were two rounds, where every last candidate is eliminated, 248,000 people voted for the election of the leader of the Imperial Conservative Union.

Election Results:
First Round of Elections: Participation: 248,950 people.
- William Humphrey, received 76,535 votes.
- Lord James Salisbury, received 82,959 votes
- Archibald Mangley, received 89,456 votes
Second Round of Elections: Participation: 348,265 people.
- Lord James Salisbury, received 174,080 votes
- Archibald Mangley, received 174,185 votes

Mr. Archibald Mangley is elected Leader of the ICU thanks to a platform which reassures after the defeat of the general elections this year, this platform was able to reassure the voters, not wanting to see the LCP becoming the first conservative party of Luthori, especially after what is known as "The Bush's Nightmare", the terms of Kimberly Bush, which were seen by most editorialists as one or more disappointing terms, with little economic progress and successive crises that forced Bush to hold "caretaker cabinets" or known as "Bush's Interim Ministries", being a conservative who wants to solidify and retain the base in the ICU rather than the Luthorian Conservative Party, which seeks to take over the base of the ICU to make her loyal to his advantage. The Imperial Conservative Union, suffered from governing with the centrists, being unable to align its program with the interests of those they elected.

Their Imperial Highnesses, HIH Prince of Orange, Andrew of Carington and HIH Princess of Hexanshire, Victoria of Orange-Vilayn Armstead

Fort-William, Luthori: Today, few people had hoped that day would come, but many people had hoped that day would come, for more than 40 years, the Orange-Vilayn Armstead and the Caringtons have been in a media, political war on the subject of the throne of Luthori, via intervening parties, the Legitimists, who support the restoration of the Orange-Vilayn Armstead to the imperial throne, and the Caringtonists, who support the current imperial family, but today the imperial family problems will be over, As His Imperial Highness, Prince of Orange, Andrew of Carington, today announced his engagement to his girlfriend, Princess Victoria, of the House of Orange-Vilayn Armstead, many people are wondering, how is it possible that the two families, who have been rivals for years, were able to agree to organize this marriage.

The two lovers first met in Békenial, Hutori, when Andrew went to see one of his personal friends, living in Hutori, this friend had organized a reception, where Victoria and her close friends were present, the two met by a very happy coincidence, because the person who organized the reception, was a friend of the two, this one had them introduced to each, and it was love at first sight. Even though he knew about the relationship between their two families, they wanted to stay together, as a couple, the two grew closer during that evening, and they decided to stay in touch. Andrew was afraid that their relationship would be discovered by his family and the media, which could harass them, as the tabloids did with his previous girlfriends. So, since their first date, 8 years ago, they have kept their relationship a secret, having the support of their siblings, and this, without their parents, or the imperial institution realizing it.

This state of affairs will remain until the day when Victoria and Andrew, decided to reveal their relationship to their parents, and their intention to get engaged. Their respective parents were shocked by this announcement, but did not oppose it, Andrew's parents, HIM Edward IV and HIH Elizabeth, were surprised by this revelation, but decided to trust their son's good judgment, and were also attached to Victoria, via her good manners. For Victoria's parents, HIH Albert and HIH Charlotte, were surprised, but trusted their daughter, even if Albert had given his consent to hold the wedding, he asked Victoria, to take her royal titles, and to ask Edward IV to allow the Orange-Vilayn Armsteads to return to Luthori and have their titles restored, along with their lands. Which she accepted, out of love towards her father, but out of unsuspecting.

This request was granted by Edward IV, and the old imperial family was allowed to return to Luthori, and have their titles and lands restored.

Statement from the Orange Palace.
The Orange Palace has announced that Their Highnesses, The Prince of Orange, Andrew of Carington and The Princess of Orange, Victoria of Orange-Vilayn Armstead have decided to get engaged after 8 years of intimate relationship between the two people. The wedding will take place on August 13, 5233, in St. Richard's Cathedral, Fort-William, Luthori.


It is said that an agreement has been reached between the two families on the person who will take the throne after the death or abdication of Edward IV, it will be a co-rule between the two heirs to the throne, to stop decades of battle between the Orange-Vilayn Armsteads and the Caringtons, a new name has been chosen, coming from a palace located in Luthori, which will be the name of Sewallston. To signify a break with the past that has divided their respective families for decades.

The Voice of the People
King-Emperor Edward IV abdicates, Victoria and Andrew to take the throne, under the name of Mary III and Andrew III
January 5235

Image
His Majesty, Edward IV, talking to the nation about his abdication.

Fort-William, Luthori: Today, an unthinkable thing happened today, the King-Emperor of the Holy Luthori Empire, Edward IV decided to abdicate his imperial duties, to make way, not to Andrew, only, but to Andrew and Victoria, as our hypothesis several months ago confirms, an agreement between the two families on the Imperial throne of Luthori. The Emperor has suffered for years from respiratory problems, which have been getting worse and worse for years. The Imperial Household has been very silent on the subject, giving few details about the Emperor's health, to avoid exploitation of his health by the media and the tabloids, powerful media that can give false information to their audience, but being hugely followed and very powerful in front of Luthori's royals.

An announcement from the Imperial Household announced that the Emperor will make a speech during the night, this speech was his the one announcing his intention to abdicate in favor of his son, and surprisingly, to his daughter-in-law, confirming that an agreement between the two bureaucratic organizations of the imperial families, that an agreement on the imperial throne had been reached, to ensure the stability of Luthori. The agreement stipulates that the Orange-Vilayn Armstead recover their titles and lands present in Luthori, which has caused a big change in the level of titles given to the whole imperial family, with members coming from both families, seeing their titles being given to others or being exchanged, this procedure is finished since the marriage of His Imperial Highness, Andrew, Prince of Orange and His Imperial Highness, Victoria, Princess of Orange and Duchess of Northminister. The second clause and that which will change the image of the imperial family is the co-role of the two spouses, being completely equal, and having no consort. Her Majesty also announced "that his state of health, physical and mental, does not allow him to continue to reign normally", and he announced his intention to abdicate in favor of Prince Andrew and Princess Victoria, he explained this choice as being "carefully considered" and explained that after weighing the yes and the no, he decided that it would be best for the country if the two were co-emperor/empress of Luthori, for a better future.

The Imperial Household has announced that the Emperor will retire to Horncastle Palace, where he will live throughout his retirement, after Andrew and Victoria have been confirmed by Parliament, he will be present for the coronation which will take place in 1 years from of today, January 19, 5235, so the coronation will take place on January 19, 5236, in St. Richard's Cathedral, and will be officiated by the Archbishop of Oalapo, Monsignor John Brakes. The Imperial House has announced that Victoria and Andrew have chosen their names as monarchs, Victoria has chosen to take the name Mary, her middle name, ahead of Mary III and Andrew has chosen to keep her name, becoming Andrew III, the two have also chose to rename the Imperial House of Carington to Sewallston, after Sewallston House, one of the many Imperial estates in the Duchy of Middenriding. Their Majesties must now go through Parliament for their confirmation, but the recent union of the Legitimist Houses, seeking to solidify Luthori's policies, without dynastic problems, it is very likely that confirmation is only a step.

Farming is the Future
Smart Farming Tech to Boost Luthori Economy
June 5236

Image
Chancellor Stoutson

Peter Stoutson was on hand in the duchies in a small farm surrounded by many reporters and also with the Minister of Technology Donald Gaines to unveil the government's new plan to help improve farming technology in the Holy Empire.

“Supporting the rural population is a priority for the K. Bush Administration. As such, we are investing £500 million Luthorian pounds toward the Smart Farmers Plan which will provide the funds necessary to improve the current decaying and unsafe equipment/technology that plagues each farmer. As a result this will ultimately increase overall farming efficiency throughout the Empire."

The Smart Farmers Plan will specifically give farmers easy access to use new and innovative farming technologies by allowing them to apply for a grant, which will allow them to upgrade their current equipment and tools. For instance, a farmer can apply for a grant in a range with the maximum amount allowed being £200,000.00.

"We must help the farmer at all costs as they've been ignored by several Luthorian governments in the past. And I have received word from the Prime Minister herself that this is a top priority for this government."

"This will increase farmer productivity and thus boost the overall economy, furthermore this reaffirms the government's commitment to helping the farmers by encouraging innovation and stimulating the investment in new farming tools. As we all know, farmers are the bedrock of Luthorian society, and Rally for Luthori has fulfilled our promise to them with this ambitious plan to improve the agriculture sector in this country."
