[CP] Fight for democracy in the eUK!

Day 3,898, 10:00 • Published in United Kingdom

• by 10 Downing Street

Dear friends,

Most of you will have noticed there is currently a military take over attempt underway in the eUK. It is led by UK’s Finest, also known as Alfagrem, an old eUK player and one of the bigger tanks left in the game.

For those who don’t know, a military take over attempt costs 1,000,000 currency (regardless of success or failure) and pits a military unit against the country. If successful, the leader of the military unit becomes dictator and takes all of the powers of congress and the president. To remove the dictator similarly then costs a further 1,000,000 currency.

The people of the eUK voted for their congress, and for their CP. Regardless of their choice, it is their choice. In the last congressional election, the Pirate Cat Party (which UK’s Finest belongs to) secured just under a quarter of the vote. They have had similar results in recent Presidential elections.

UK citizens and allies, fight for democracy in the eUK. Move to the capital region (London) and join a UK military unit to take part in the fight. The Royal Air Force (https://www.erepublik.com/en/military/military-unit/1473/overview) is an open military unit and you are welcome to join.

There are combat orders up to fight for our democracy.

Thank you for reading

Pffft - Stand up for minority rights!

The power of the political classes should never be an excuse to oppress those who are different in thought, form or action.

Remember kids "The opposite of Diversity is Unity" and which political party does Mr Keers belong to?

The 'Unity' Party.

So fight for a multicultural Britain and fight like a Pirate.

For the record - I am a life member of the UKRP (not TUP) - and whilst I would not class myself as a fan of Iain Keers, his continued service as Country President is much preferred to a Military Dictatorship under Alfagrem/UK's Finest - a player whose track record is colourful to say the least.

I do object to having a small number of noisy individuals attempt to take over the eUK by force - and I will continue to resist with all of my limited military strength!

Alfa UKSF Day 3,898, 13:39

When you oppress and attempt to segregate the minority, to silence them and deny them a voice then you generally end up in a uncivil situation.

certacito Day 3,898, 13:46

I am not sure how an invitation to stand for Country President can possibly be translated into and attempt to segregate and silence a minority.

What I see here is a small number of influential players imposing their will on the rest of the nation by using strong arm bully boy tactics!

Alfa UKSF Day 3,898, 13:49

so quick to defend your democratic rights and so very fast to deny us ours.

Alfa UKSF Day 3,898, 10:14

also for factual points.......the dictator cannot;

1. Impeach the CP.
2. Change the welcoming message.

CptChazbeard Day 3,898, 10:16

What has the Congress share of PCP got to do with this?

If you're going down that route then you secured least than half the vote against 3 non-runners in the CP election and it's only game mechanics 66% rule that stopped you getting impeached. (More people voted to impeach than the PCP even has in congress so yeah...all PCP?)

So I'm assuming fighting for the dictatorship is the best option?

Apologies but I mentioned earlier about not feeding tribalism if you don't condone it, this article and the Vote No message your boy has been sending is doing exactly that.

Spite313 Day 3,898, 10:18

I got half the vote Chaz, and won fairly. UKSF got 0% of the vote.

CptChazbeard Day 3,898, 10:25

Just shy of half and it was over half who voted for the impeachment.

Yah missed the point anyway...if we're dragging the PCP congress share into this as a justificaction against the coup then we can just as well hand pick other data that could justify a coup.

WayneKerr Day 3,898, 10:28

Publicly apologising for branding our party racist would go a long way to solving these problems. Afterall such accusations can be career threatening...

MrCherry Day 3,898, 12:20

So what are you going to use as an excuse when Spite isn't CP?

Stevearino Day 3,898, 12:52

Hah - the idea that you should apologise to a known thief is pathetic

WayneKerr Day 3,898, 13:18

what have Pirates stolen Paul, except your hearts?

Pannonian Nomad Day 3,898, 10:28

moist

Septuagenarian Day 3,898, 10:35

The people of the eUK didn't vote for the congress or the CP. Most did what they always do and ignored the election.

This dictatorship war is actually a good thing as it forces anyone that cares one way or the other to actually do something

Rob the Bruce Day 3,898, 14:16

Sexagenerian actually likes something? Have I been hit on the head?

Kim Jong One Day 3,898, 10:40

that escalated quickly

Talon Karrde Day 3,898, 11:49

My allegiance is to the republic... to democracy!

Huey George Day 3,898, 11:52

Fight for democratic choice in the UK. Fight for our democracy and if you are in Congress vote "No" to the impeachment of our elected CP.

Omnissiah Day 3,898, 12:41

This coup is nothing more than an attempt by a few players who get their fun from trolling, clashing, and mouth breathing whatever sour real life political/social opinions they hold. That's it. Full stop.

WayneKerr Day 3,898, 13:16

It’s definitely trolling, not sure what our varied and diverse political beliefs have to do with it though...

certacito Day 3,898, 13:33

If UK's Finest or Wayne wish to govern - why can't they simply run in the CP elections? Is this not easier than launching the eUK into Civil War?

Mr Knee Day 3,898, 13:40

Nope. This would be a much easier method.

Alfa UKSF Day 3,898, 13:44

Dictatorship = No mongress.

The recent reports coupled with the segregationist policies of the administration (with the acquiescent complicity of others) make this a more efficient process.
