Mr. Speaker,

A quick reminder to the Culture Minister @Françal I. Lux that this enquiry is still outstanding.

Party leader nominations closing on July 15th. The initial plan is to then close nominations with each candidate open to questions from members. Voting by the membership to follow.

Folks interested in joining the party please feel free to state it here or message via PM.

Earlier today, I informed party members within the party's Discord that I am resigning as leader of the Green Party effective once a new leader is selected. In a separate motion, I have invited party members to determine interest in a new leader. I will not be standing in that contest, nor will I make any endorsements or effort to influence the race, and I will be leaving the party at the end of this Cosa.

It has been a genuine honor to serve as your leader and I am deeply grateful for your loyalty during admittedly difficult times. But it is now time for the party to chart a new path forward.

Once a new leader is elected I will request that the moderator settings be updated.

Bjork - All Is Full Of Love

Ryuichi Sakamoto - Energy Flow

Cissy Houston - The Lord Is My Shepherd

Woohoo! The Posse might be in contention for this stage.

Mr. Speaker, as promised I am following up with an enquiry to the Culture Minister @Françal I. Lux
The follow-up concerns his reply from last month and is a part of an ongoing line of enquiry starting in May:

Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on May 04, 2026, 10:58:48 PMMr. Speaker,

This enquiry is for the Culture/Finance Minister.

On April 14, Minister @Françal I. Lux informed the nation of his return to service. Minister, if you could please advise the Ziu on your plans for the Culture and Finance portfolios now that you are back.

Thank you for the question.

Mr. Speaker, my main priority for the next month is resuming my previous plans for the Culture Ministry. With the help of S:reu Malt and under the supervision of our Ladîntsch Naziunál, the Ministry of Culture will be sponsoring a translation project, first to update the Talossan version of the Organic Law, and, if all goes well, the gradual translation of the nation's statutes.

Minister, what updates are there to the translation project currently underway with MZ Malt and the Ladîntsch Naziunál?

Thank you for the question,

Mr. Speaker we have unfortunately encountered delays due to personal reasons, but I haven't lost hope and will continue to push for it to at least begin before the end of this month.

Minister, with hope that the aforementioned personal matters have improved for all persons involved, what progress might the Ministry be able to report on the Organic Law translation project?

The conversation in Discord got me thinking. Some mentioned an interest in homebrewing and I am wondering if there has ever been consideration of creating a recipe for a "national beer?" It would certainly be an interesting cultural project where people could on their own reproduce it perhaps to celebrate important national holidays.

With the caveat that not all Talossans are drinkers it might be an interesting venture.

What is so attractive about the Progressive Alliance that you decided to quit us after a few hours?

Is it only that they're the government party?

I want to know too Moses. ;)

Quote from: Miestră Schivă, UrN-GC on July 02, 2026, 04:28:57 AMThe Union of Free Reformists Cosă and Senäts delegations will deliver a firm and unanimous CONTRA to this impertinent middle finger to public opinion. This is the kind of behaviour that - should the sex pest unanimously condemned by the Ziu be re-elected - will lead to a swift expulsion by a rightfully-disgusted Cosa supermajority."

Folks, no need to link to the censure resolution. I've helpfully added it to my signature for easy access along with my public apology, which was made just before you decided to go ahead and Clark the censure resolution.

I will be running for the Cosa in the next GE so you will want to prepare your arguments as to why a resolution supporting the Me Too Movement and also linking to your censure resolution on my own allegations is wrong and deserving of expulsion. Especially since the latter was added after consultations in the Hopper.

And I think I'm the only person with three IDs...

If we are still doing the citizenship milestones project then this would be a great occasion for a certificate. Might actually be a good idea for a page on Talossa.com too.

Hey @xpb

In starting to finally get to work on the second report for the Dominion of Vancouver Island I noticed this note concerning the Asgardia report. Have you heard anything back from Asgardian Foreign Ministry?

I tend to root for the underdog and I have been informed this will make it quite easy to root for Canada in Saturday's match against Morocco.

IMMIGRATION

---

Should the overdue revival of the TalossAssistant prove unsuccessful in increasing the success of immigration applications then we will need to consider alternative solutions. A review of InfoTeca data shows a steady rate of applications between January and May 2026 (in the low to high 20s) but the drop-off especially in the past three months has been in successful applications.

The concern, based on reviewing the data, is in retaining applicants and making them into successful citizens not in attracting applications. The Government has attempted to make a connection between its publication activity and immigration but that is not where the current problem lies. The PA will need to answer to voters why it took months to reactivate a program (at some urging by the Opposition) that will hopefully address the real immigration issue.

The Posse looks forward to checking out the finished Sagrada Familia before the race's start.

@Owen Bottu Welcome officially to Talossan citizenship. Be sure, if interested, to request your name be converted into Talossan here: https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?board=28.0

@Moses Henry Emefiele Welcome officially to Talossan citizenship, Moses! Be sure, if interested, to request your name be converted into Talossan here: https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?board=28.0

Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on June 17, 2026, 09:31:42 PMWelp, with no word from the PA senator I hope to get to the Governor's comments this weekend.

Good evening - have you been able to alter your proposal to address any of those comments?

Sadly no, not yet. Extra-Talossan commitments have been occupying more of my time recently. I am going to try and post the alterations by the end of this week.

S:reu Secretary, I am pleased to request Clarking of the following:

The Citizenship Oath Reform Act

Hi Luc, not trying to nitpick but I wanted to be sure you saw it. I noticed it is not in the Draft Clark.

Thanks, I see in the Hopper title that it has been Clarked now.

Quote from: Glüc on June 25, 2026, 08:03:14 AMBy my (quick and potentially not very accurate) count we are on track for the following group stage point counts:

(min-max)

Lüc 22-41
Glüc 21-39
Braneu 22-43
AD 19-37
þerxh 24-43
Danihel (late entry) 23-42
Breneir 21-40

There are a lot more points to be earned in the knockout stage, which the group stage obviously has implications for, but I'm gonna wait until after the groupstage to do an update on that.

Based on that range I didn't do as bad as I predicted.
