OPLERS TO RETIRE AFTER TERM: FEMINIST FACE LEADERSHIP ELECTION

Today in a press conference Prime Minister Oplers announced that she will not seek a 4th term in the Diet or a 3rd Term as Prime Minister. "I'm simply to old to the run the government for 6 more years." The now 76 Year old PM states. "After my term I would not be able to functionally serve our nation as effectively as I have done for the past 7 years." The Prime Minister went on to say that she will actively support and campaign for the feminist party, however she will not seek any role in governance. On what influenced her decision Prime Minister Oplers said "Its been a conversation I've had with a lot of people, friends in the party, family members, former Prime Ministers, I've been praying, I've taken a holistic approach when it comes to making this decision."

To replace PM Opplers, the Feminist Party President, Hellen Jackson (who controls all internal party affairs), announced that the election for leadership will be open to all feminist party members. This is a departure from the typical approach the Feminist Party takes where they usually have an election of the in diet members. Already 2 main candidates have emerged. Justice Minister Alexa Inslee has emerge as the front runner, she is seen as the continuation of the moderate Oplers style of Party Politics, however she is not immune from controversy. As Justice Minister she has recently been of a failed vote of no confidence for her attempt to overturn parts of the National Defense act because members of the opposition viewed her actions as lacking legitimacy, the Justice Ministry however is still continuing its lawsuit against the Diet. Despite this she is leading with 56% support in a recent poll.

The Second main contender is Finance Minister and Deputy In-Diet Leader Peter Lionsworth. Known for being the biggest advocate for the LGBT movement in the Feminst Party, and his close affiliation with the more radical Maddison backed Liberation Caucus, he also is known to be one of the more skilled politicians in the Feminist Party, however despite his skill some people may be worried about having a man lead the Feminist Party, however Lionsworth is still popular with 43%.

                    That's not chicken, says Food Standards Board

                    August 4927

                    Image
                    ▲ Chicken or sparrow? Pictured: the feathery culprit

FORT WILLIAM, ORANGE — Chicken-based products have been 'extensively' contaminated with and in some cases entirely substituted by sparrow meat, an investigation by the Food Standards Board has found. In one instance breaded 'chicken' products such as goujons and nuggets sold by major supermarket chains throughout the country were discovered to contain up to 47% sparrow, while the worst offender, pirate-themed restaurant chain Captain Jack's, was revealed to have completely replaced chicken with sparrow.

Consumer advocacy groups descended on Captain Jack's restaurants across Luthori with placards reading "100% CHICKEN (OWNERS)" after president and chief executive officer of Captain Jack's Philip Roberts refused to comment on the findings. While in most cases the Food Standards Board has not yet determined if suppliers or the businesses themselves are at fault, the beleaguered fast food chain had the blame squarely placed with them. "Although in many cases it is entirely possible that businesses have sold sparrow meat unknowingly, the sheer scale in [the case of Captain Jack's] makes this implausible, and testimony from employees involved in the supply chain confirms that sparrow meat was substituted for chicken as an institutional practice on the company's end," read the report.

As for the source of the sparrows themselves, the Food Standards Board pointed to one country: Malivia.

Inslee Killed Days Before Leadership Election

Today Justice Minister Alexa Inslee was shot dead just days away from the Feminist Party Primary. The Minister was shot by July Raddison, a more radical member of the Pink Battalion. The murder was taken out on the campaign visit to Mrs. Inslee's home town. Ms. Raddison is currently apprehended and will face trial. Prime Minister Oplers has ordered a state funeral for Mrs. Inslee, as the deputy Justice Minister, Ursela Johnson, has become acting Justice Minister

Mrs. Inslee was the front runner for the new Feminist In-Diet Leader, and a contender for Prime Minister, however with the election only a few days away Mr. Lionsworth, her main contender, is allmost gaurented that the Fianance Minister will lead the Feminist Party.

                    Workers', National Movement to form government

                    October 4927 [post-dated]

FORT WILLIAM, ORANGE — The Luthorian Workers' Party and National Movement are set to together form a government after the Diet voted 78-72 for their cabinet proposal. The parties won 64 seats at the general election, falling 12 short of an overall majority, but following successful negotiations with the National Confession and Country parties received their support in the vote. National Movement president Louise of Hurrington will serve as home secretary and deputy prime minister, with the government being led by Ernie Attridge as prime minister, making this the first time since 4850 that the National Movement has participated in government (the party previously provided confidence and supply to the Stinson government in 4896 and the Romney government in 4914).

The two set out their programme for government in an address to the Imperial Diet before the vote. "The left is finally defeated. The [Conservatives] lost again. They despised the people and the people despised them. We are going to change the face of this country forever. This will be the best cabinet Luthori has ever seen. We will fight relentlessly against communist and feminism," said Lady Hurrington. "Luthorians will be respected and preferred to criminal migrants."

The full government programme is as follows: the restriction of citizenship to Hosians of ethnic Luthorian background; an increase in the salaries of public servants; mandatory registration of ethnic background and religion; the extension of policing powers to the armed forces; broader interpretation of sectioning laws to ensure public safety; prioritisation of Luthorians in government hiring; devolution of policy regarding illegal immigrants to the duchies; the patriotic education of students; recognition that the climate is not changing; the introduction of natalist policies; and a ban on refugees entering the country.

                    Foreign secretary eats parrot

                    November 4927 [post-dated]

                    Image
                    ▲ The foreign secretary taking questions from the press - at a different event

FORT WILLIAM, ORANGE — Months of traded insults between the Malivian and Luthorian tabloid presses over the matter of accused parrot-eating (a severe taboo in Malivian culture, where it is a sacred animal) reached a crescendo yesterday evening as foreign secretary Tommy Brewer, having been on the job for only a month, held a press conference to which he invited journalists from all major Malivian papers, with the claimed purpose of 'setting recent rumours aside'. The true objective of the conference soon became obvious, however, when the briefing room's doors opened to a fully-set dining table and a foreign secretary with knife and fork in hand.

The few who stayed to witness the event were under no misapprehensions as kitchen staff wheeled in a tray with a domed platter upon it; still, the reaction when the dome was lifted was one of disgusted disbelief. "Roast parrot," Mr Brewer needlessly explained. "In the Selucian style."

LEAK DOCUMENT ACCUSES PETER LIONSWORTH OF ORDERING THE MURDER OF ALEXA INSLEE

As the Justice Department has a massive turnover of staff from the Inslee/Raddison Administration to the new non-partisan administration a leak draft ordered by Mrs. Raddison accused Mr. Lionsworth with a various amount of crimes with his position as finance minister, including but not limited to: money laundering, courruption, misuse of public funds, working with organized crime, and using public money to pay for the murder of former Justice Minister Alexa Inslee.

The 134 page document, supposedly leaked by a former aid to Ms. Raddison, alleged that as Finance Minister, Mr. Lionsworth formed a club of business and crime leaders called The Lion's Den. The Den, as it is referred to, was an institution that brought powerful people together in an attempt to maximize the personal wealth of it members,this includes several close political allies in the Feminist Party, but as well as several business leaders, leaders of organized crime, and Ursela Johnson, the leaders of the Pink Battalion, the unofficial paramilitary group for the Feminist Party. The document takes testimony from an anonymous figure alleges that Mr. Lionsworth asked Ms. Johnson to "do something about the enemy" a mere days before the Murder of Ms. Inslee.

This leak has caused several party officials to resign, yet no member of the Feminist Caucus in the Imperial Diet has yet to resign or comment. Mr. Lionsworth has also not commented on the leak.
