The truth behind Henry's firing as MoD

For those Aussies who don't come onto the eAus forums you really should. It's never ending lulz this month with Timeoin the cereal CP runner-up finally tripping over the finish line.
After making a lulz proposal with his "shiny CP button" (his words not mine) on the first day, he now made a knee jerk reaction firing long time Aussie patriot, Henry the 8th, from his Cabinet position of Minister of Defense on the grounds of inactivity and inciting his MU, the Knighthawks, to attack Auckland while NZ was returning Tasmania to us.
New Zealand cannot be trusted to return anything, they have proven time and time again they are as honourable as the Indos. We are being attacked from two directions and quite frankly I don't blame Aussie wanting to stick it to both of them.
Timeoin apologised hours later for his immature decision (see picture) but he didn't reinstate Henry.
This is a lulz prime minister with no real idea what he is supposed to be doing. He just loves the spotlight and will do anything to be in it. His rash decision making shows he has no real ability to lead, he just sells out his Cabinet the MINUTE something goes wrong. Who will Timeoin sell out next in his Cabinet? Don't expect any loyalty in return when this is how you treat your Ministers.
Don't worry Henry, the Knighthawks love you. Work where you are appreciated. The Timeoin and Tim Holtz lulz show doesn't deserve you.
This article is labelled entertainment, because that's all this government will ever amount to.

Idiot
trolling AGAIN, Infin?
remember folks, if you disagree at all, you're a troll. this is eAus mentality for you and that's why I encourage more Aussies to come onto our forums and engage in legitimate debate.
no you're just an idiot who does nothing to contribute but sits back and pretends to be important.
There is a reason nobody votes your aticles anymore.
Go and cry elsewhere little troll.
well said Larni
you guys are fools

infin, you need to learn that you're not important anymore and no one cares about you. Time for you to move onto bigger and better things, preferably in your mind so you don't screw up the real plans of the country.
I love watching arguments in eAustralia.
1 guy posts an article about a topic, and instead of everyone discussing the topic they focus on the poster, ignoring the topic.
there is nothing to discuss KK. Timeoin is free to hire and fire any cabinet member he wants to without any need to explain himself.
Infin is simply trying to get brownie points by posing the usual garbage that has nothing to do with the simple facts of the matter.
Larni, Henry is a good friend of mine and i want to know why he was fired. So far with the evidence a mere citizen such as myself have received. It is probably the worst decision tim could make. Good luck with your term tim with no KH backing.
So Callumh you think Timeoin should have allowed Henry to remain just because of the Knight Hawks? Thats pathetic, nobody holds the Aus Gov under threats.
The truth is that Henry was not doing an adequate job (I believe due to real life issues) and had to be replaced. The rest of it is nonsense.
When the allies have no real idea who the MoD is then there is something seriously wrong, given the present situation it was way to risky to maintain that situation.
There probably could have being a better way to handle the situation imo.
I am not going to say that HT8 deserved to keep his job but Timeon should have had something published to inform the public of his decision, to prevent propaganda like this coming out.
If I had a paddle I'd slap you all. No, really, I would..
"nobody holds the Aus Gov under threats."
Again, whilst not getting into the subject of debate, it's worth pointing out that the DocterDry-Norton Government was frequently threatened to take positions or threats of every magnitude came spewing out.
Anyway .. what is unemployment and how can I be involved?
(Oh wait .. that's all bad .. scratch that 😛 )
I would have personally just preferred Tim to actually talk with me about any concerns to just going public (I found out i was fired by shouts) He does not know how to talk with people, only berate.
No pride no shame then.
Infin STFU - take all that to the AusForum.
You are just making yourself look retarded & Aus look weak.
People ignore this paper - save your comments for the Forum
all that is being achieved here is giving Indos a reason to laugh at us
Louise your comment is pretty abusive.
I don't know why you think he is making himself look "retarded" when he's just bringing to light a valid issue. It's the whole purpose of the erepublik article system.
Trying to hide everything on the Ausrep forums which only about 5% of the eAustralian population uses is silly.
30 seconds of my life I will never get back...

i like how the attitude of eaus is so lulzy.
"After making a lulz proposal with his "shiny CP button" "
Just stick to the facts of your heading Infin but otherwise voted for bringing the CP's lack of balls to the view of the public eye.
I say "IMPEACH"
Timeoin made a decision and enacted it in a way which reflects very poorly on him. I think we can all agree with that, surely?
However, so far as being a lulz CP, I have personally seen Timeoin working hard to try get allies to help us out. He's been given a tough job and an even tougher job, and he's doing what he can.
As for what henry actually did, the question is debatable. In theory, he was fired because he had orders set in KH to a battle they should not have been. Not really that bad, if you really think about it. I don't know how many of you run MUs, but it can be rather tough to change the orders (you have a 4 min gap every 2 hours... It's easy for us non-superhuman people to miss).
From Timeoin's side however; Henry's goof did have surprisingly large repercussions (not least due to Savonrepus doing his thing in Auckland), with NZ starting their attack against Australia at a supremely inopportune time in retaliation. Timeoin made a mistake, in my opinion. He should have talked to Henry about it.
But seriously infin? Was writing this article, in this way really necessary? Branding him as a Lulz CP is not the way to start intelligent discussion, and you know this. You play the same old game; bring up an issue in a way as to antagonize people, then act surprised when called a troll. It's sad. And it has to stop.
And that's the longest comment I've ever bothered to write :3
1. Timeoin works has ass off.
2. Timeoin has a lulzy sense of humour. So what? Good on him, we could use more humour around here.
3. IMHO the Knighthawks and Sav had little to do with NZ's decision to retaliate. They were already ahead in the battle and still won it. Its just a "funny hat" excuse.
4. The CP can hire and fire any minister at will. Every CP has had that prerogative from the beginning of time.
4.
If any of you seriously think that Australia will prevail with this kind of government I feel sad for all of you. Australia can't wipe its own ass let alone another country.
The old infin would have correctly used "serial" instead of "cereal" and "you're" instead of "your".
Wally, you are correct, of course 😛
Thing is, NZ blames KH. Or at least, they chose to do so in front of Timeoin, as an excuse for what they did. This worried Timeoin, and he made the decision that he made.
infin - you re welcome in eNew Zealand..
1 minute of my life I will never get back...
The second in command of the Knight Hawks did 10 million damage in a battle that was not supposed to have been fought in. The Kiwis saw the ten million damage being done by the second in command of the Knight Hawks, and presumed we wanted war.
Sav isn't second in command Timeoin....
Wally do you think a lulz CP deserves proper speeling?
Oh jeezes enough already .. I can't take it anymore so I'm going to speak up. KH are 10 x stronger than the ADF on their best day and still better on their worst. So what? Jealousy isn't a good look.
The Serbs have got the jacked eKosovo vote they wanted so you'd think they'd be happy. Apparently not. When will everyone get it through their heads that eNZ aren't our friends. eAus, at the best of times, had the odd eNew Zealander who it was friends with - a far cry from their country as a whole.
Either push for conflict of interest laws in this country or let it go. The MoD was hired in the full knowledge that he was head of a militia. What was he supposed to do? Huh?
This Government's military and foreign policy is in tatters. The only reason Timeoin is still in office is because Paul Hamon is No.2. I mean, come on, if we're going to let it out then let it out or STFU about it, right?
Timeoin's not a bad bloke - really he isn't. Problem is the Cabinet has devolved into a capsular operation and one hand isn't talking with the other. The only time I hear or see anything is when it's posted in the Senate. Mighty fine communication there.
& don't say "you're not active on iRC, TJ". Seriously - I have a life. I don't spend 24/7 on eRep. That doesn't prevent the PM or MoFA sending me a message going "Sup! What's your view on X, Y, Z?"
Drop the sock puppets and let's get it together. No harm in saying we goofed - previous governments have done far worse. But when we know something to be fact and then ignore it, then use it as an excuse saying "we've been had" is kinda like "the dog ate my homework".
scotty ... actually, check the Military Unit. He is second commander 😉
(On a different note, if Henry is willing to talk to me, maybe we can put this whole sordid issue behind us)
