Premier Van Wyck delivers Victory Speech after Snap Elections
"They have undone the 4518 Elections" says Van WyckKaliburg, Ananto
May 15, 4519Premier of the Republic set to return to Opposition Speaker within coming months"We are still waiting for the President of the Republic to concede their loss in the recent elections," said Premier of the Republic Georgia Van Wyck. She leads a Party, along with coalition Partners in the NCP and the UKWF which is headed for oblivion status now that snap elections are over following the collapse in government talks over the last seven months, but she sounds amazingly upbeat, as she addresses hardcore supporters at SPoK headquarters in Kaliburg.
She has reason to be upbeat. "We had a net gain in our Legislative seat count during the last election of 4 Seats. From small, small acorns, Comrades, grow the mighty oaks. This is just a start."
Van Wyck touts the Omnibus bills proposed by both the SP and the NCP since the last election. "We got them on record. They took a stand. And when those bills finally close, its going to show the people what these Rightists REALLY are: a gang of thugs and destroyers! They don't care about Kalistan's institutions. They just want to remove everything in their way. What's the Patriot League's ultimate goal? I don't want to say it is something like a legislative coup or anything... But if you look at how they vote. They vote against the interests of every single one of us in this Room tonight, against the interests of freedom, against the interests of security. They want to have nuclear weaponry and segregation! Can you believe this? And they say they are making this country Great. Well: We're taking it to them. No more can they sit comfortably on the positions that got them a surprise victory three years ago. They are going to take the tough stands and by God, they are going to differentiate themselves from other Parties, and not in a good way either. We are going to hit them and hit them and hit them until they lose that majority. And then you better believe, we'll never hear from them again."
The Premier, who expects to lose her position within the next few months, likely to the Liberals, has promised that the Right is going to have to govern alone. "We ain't gonna give them NO votes, unless it is for renationalization. We will vote for their bills if they start acting like proper socialists. Otherwise, they can govern alone, and we will go on going what we do best, which is running this Country, even if it is without the Government. We have good partners: It is only a matter of time before the extremely lopsided results we've seen in recent elections even out for all of us, and then, well, three is more than two. Surely even they can do that math."
The Premier touted the signature accomplishment of the Ewart Administration: "The President of the Republic was wise enough to call the Constitutional Court into session when it was clear that the Patriots were going to steal the office from her. We plan to look at how to use that Court to try the Prerogative. One question we want resolved: Is it incumbent that the President should be able to name the Government that SHE thinks is appropriate: I mean. Is the role of the Assembly JUST consent, or do the Assembly have some sort of binding authority over the matter. Our attorneys are looking into the best judicial strategy to set precedent once and for all. Its too late to help President Ewart, but it is our hope that the matter can be resolved for the Future."
All in all, the Premier did not sound like a person who had just lost an election. "No, we did not lose. You can't destroy Kalistan with one simple election. As we have told the Government: Its a matter of time. In just over seventy years, the Socialist Party of Kalistan will celebrate its 2000th Anniversary. We have learned a thing or two in that time. And the first one is that the SP is the Eternal Party of Kalistan. Ideologies based on division and power acquisition, and their respective demagogues, don't tend to last long in this country. Only those who support the institutions of the country."
Looks like the Premier is kicking the term off with a roundhouse. We'll stay tuned to see how Act two of this political drama plays out.
