Yes. This is a Czechoslovakia break up in that we both agreed to it, and it's not bad for either of us. It's not like Yugoslavia.

Their 1p tax rise is the most equitable tax proposal I've seen from the parties and wont effect the marginal propensity to pay tax and raise just as much as the Labour proposal.

I can't support the legalisation of cannabis enough. They're making it so if you abuse animals you can get 5 years, at the moment it's only a handful of months. It is not a gateway drug and is needed for medical as well as recreational reasons, it will create an extra one billion in tax and will also stop wasting police times and take money out of criminal hands which goes towards other illegal activities. They're gonna scrap grammar school plans, fund more police officers and put £7bn more into education. Its Brexit negotiations will be the best, we should take it as slow and careful as possible.

Ultimately, they're the only party that has maintained a consistent manifesto on removing Trident (slowly but surely), spending more on mental health, protecting animals and protecting our rights.

As a follow up to yesterday's conversation, I've been working on a criminal code that I think should be introduced to Parliament if and when the new constitution is implemented.

I'm looking for any feedback people may have.

The punishments are of course based on my opinion so people may disagree with what I've suggested. I've qualified all of them (except treason) with "may" so that suspended and time-served sentences are still an option for judges. They're also qualified with "up to" so that sentences can be short if judges think a slap on the wrist is most appropriate.

I think the list of crimes is comprehensive based on what is logically possible in the NS universe, but I might be missing something. I've tried to make the definitions comprehensive as well; harassment, for instance, would cover insults, discriminatory comments, etc.

Anyways, feedback is appreciated.

At 16:42 a session of the USCS Union Council was held. At this meeting, the Sulanian delegation was formally admitted into the Union and made a plea for assistance in their ongoing civil war. In response, the Unfallion delegation made a speech that was broadcast live on Unfallion state news:

Comrades,

It is with great sorrow that I hear the plea of the Sulanian worker. They as a people, their dream of a socialist state and to be free of the clutches of capital, are under threat. They are faced with a civil war of epic proportions, a war that will no doubt tear apart families, destroy friendships and lay waste to all they hold dear. Yet I see determination, the Unfallion delegation hears of their tales of courage and bravery. We hear of their stubbornness. The Sulanian worker has proved themself to be a worker of resilience. They are good socialists, they are good people.

Yet, they need more. Their dream is under threat, Comrades. It's under threat from capitalists. They hide under the banner of republicanism but all we see is the dollar sign of capital. Their flag is one of exploitation, their marching call a song of oppression. They seek to exert social hierarchy on the Sulanians. To reassert the capitalist order once again. Yet, the Sulanians stand against this threat with resilience, and bravery and courage the likes of which you will not see coming from men who fight for capital. These men fight for freedom, for the sweat of their brow and the rewards of their labour. They fight for socialism, and so should we!

Thus I ask of you all a great task. I ask of you all to embark on a national struggle in the name of a worker not of your own. They may not have the blood of your nationality, but they share your class. They share your everlasting struggle. It's with great solidarity and great determination that the Unfallion delegation does invoke Article 3, Section 7 of the Articles of Governance and places this alliance in war posture. To fight not just for the Sulanians, but for our right to live on this world free of the threat of capitalism. After this conflict is done and the red flag flies over Sulania again they will look at that nation and they will see the determination of socialists everywhere and they will know that the socialist nations of this world look out for one another.

For the simple worker, my friends! For the worker, and his child and his grandchildren. For all workers of the world, UNITE!

Friedensreich wrote:That speech is pretty good, but is throwing everyone in the conflict a good idea?

No choice in the matter. There's a counter-revolution clause in the Articles that obligates the Union to help its members, me activated it is just a formality. Not to enter the conflict would be betraying our own Articles, our values and betray the confidence of each alliance member as they can no longer guarantee that the Union would look out for them. In this situation, we're taking an ideological view instead of a pragmatic one.

Ok! What do you all think of this as a capitol city name?

Traducere, which comes from Trans-Duc, meaning "I lead across" in Latin. It is similar to the word Traduce, but does not mean the same thing :p

In Latin, it is pronounced as: Tra-do-care

In English, it is pronounced as: Tra-do-seer

In Russian, it is pronounced as: Tra-do-chair

In Romanian, it is pronounced as: Tra-do-chair-a

Which pronunciation do you like better and do you even like the city name and meaning?

I'll have you know that I have eyelashes that are the envy of every woman and youthfulness-aspiring man, the likes of which surround ice blue eyes that leaves most people I meet politely yet incredulously asking, "so, you said you were Jewish?"

Now, if Unf has killer eyebrow game, I'll admit to jealousy.

That's a negatory. I'm as blond as Kaley Cuoco is, well, blond. It's my facial hair that grows in red.

Which is why I am always clean shaven, thus completing the youthfulness ensemble and ensuring that I will be carded every time I buy alcohol or enter a bar well into my 30s.

I would like to protest my ranking as second in the region for highest unexpected death rate.

As one can clearly see, roughly 65% of my people die from cancer, malnourishment, exposure, or scurvy. Although these causes of death are indeed premature, they're not entirely "unexpected".

Ive had a long day, and will proceed to have long awful days until sunday. so please expect a full long report but shortly put here first:

"The Hungarian Military has mobilized on the border with the Kivasek Commune for the state sponsership of smuggling things into the country. If the Kivasek do not comply, there will be retaliation!"

The Judges of the Kivasek Commune reply with the statement that as the Judges have no direct action on smugglers, they should not be held responsible.

I'm looking for any feedback people may have.

The punishments are of course based on my opinion so people may disagree with what I've suggested. I've qualified all of them (except treason) with "may" so that suspended and time-served sentences are still an option for judges. They're also qualified with "up to" so that sentences can be short if judges think a slap on the wrist is most appropriate.

I think the list of crimes is comprehensive based on what is logically possible in the NS universe, but I might be missing something. I've tried to make the definitions comprehensive as well; harassment, for instance, would cover insults, discriminatory comments, etc.

Anyways, feedback is appreciated.

I have to respectfully disagree. While I know a lot of really nice and useful diesel engines (such as Paxton, Sidney, and Salty), I think in general, steam engines are kinder, more reliable, and more distinctive. We may not as modern as diesel engines, but we can work just as hard as they can!

Well, Kalaron's newest Tank design is done, it's completely secret, so no one use this information in any RPs.

Well, it is because I'm strictly stating that someone can't use the information gained on the RMB inside of an RP if it's clearly marked as being secret and is wholly relevant to an upcoming RP.

Specifically, the program has created a new tank with classified technology that will be used in the future, for that reason said tank can be known about, just not any of the specific information of it.

It's a bit like the T-14, I suppose. We know about it but no one really knows what's inside of it. The difference being that this is closer to when the T-14 was in concept since we haven't made any victory parade marches :^)

lol nice i plan on useing the T-14 love that thing

and still even than you posted the Pic and the wiki page and all that , if you wanted real secrecy it would have been best to not post at all. people just cant sit there and act like theyve never seen it .

Yes, they very much can.

In RPs, it's very much secret because it's never been fielded, anyone who says they know about it in RP should be warned and then have it retconned if they themself won't accept that their state-leader hasn't seen the tank at all.

In the world of the CFN, I highly doubt that actual Kalaron would say "Oh hey let me post my secret tank's information to a wikipedia article", and besides that, I consider it scummy to list off your vehicle's abilities as a conflict goes on. Who's to say you aren't just writing stuff in about it as the conflict goes on?

Lastly, again, it's a seperation of OOC and IC, if Lat mentioned he had a secret base in Sydney and I just said "I bomb the secret base in Sydney" then shame on me because I never spoke to the guy inside of NS about it.

It is easy. "Ew T-14".

See. That easy.

Honestly, its an opinion, he could have formed that opinion for any number of reasons. Perhaps, when he said "Ew T-14", he meant that he does not find it aesthetically pleasing. Or perhaps it could have meant something else.

It's remarkably easy?

First, the T-14 to me is an ugly hog.

As for it's internals, we can still educated guess from it's appearances, or comment on the inevitable fact that the turret has baby cheeks and is waiting to get penned.

Or we can go with the easy answer of "I trust Russia to accurately report on their own vehicle only a tiny bit more than Israel" since it's Russia and the weapon was more of a nationalistic tool than anything.

This lack of accurate information is part of what makes me feel disgusted by the T-14, that and the lack of combat experience.
