I tried to cast my vote but I wasn't able to cast it correctly for the Ataturk House of Commons (I could write in an answer but not select it as my vote) so as long as everything else was recorded properly on the database (it was a private vote) I'll post here just for my Ataturk House of Commons vote which is for

¡Avant!

I put myself forward as a candidate for the senate race in Ataturk.

Tuischach

I would like to thank the honourable member for their question and apologies for the delay, as I'm new to the role, I am still learning the ropes, but in due time the foreign affairs ministry shall look at how to maximise the use of the landing pier and will look at what micro nations we want to reach out to, in due course.

Honesty personally I have no issue with a name change, but currently out HoC hasn't been formed for a few terms now, and I currently don't have the energy or time to do this, but might look into it feb time/the next election cycle.

I would also join in the nomination for @þerxh Sant-Enogat for Túischac'h

I too wish to join Miestra for a quick change of mind here, but if that does not happen, thank you for everything, and I wish you all the best for the future.

And in either case, I do wish to thank the outgoing Seneschal for his drive and dedication that he brought into Talossa and the olive branch and bridge he was building with opposing views, and allowing for a space to have those discussions.

His absence will leave a big hole in Talossa and her politics.

I wish him well for the future, and I hope if he doesn't change his mind quickly that one day he shall.

And I wish the best to the now Acting Seneschal Þerxh Sant-Enogat and echo the words of Miestra here about working together. And hope that you will continue in the role as your predecessor did.

Thank you Bråneu for everything you have given to Talossa. I hope it shall not be forgotten.

Whilst I can in a way, understand why AD is concerned, and aside from the inappropriateness of a member of the Judiciary to be so openly political without renouncing their seat on the Cort.
There is a glaring question, Miestra gave Viteu the go ahead to investigate and bring the matter to the Ziu at the time, in the way she thought was best at the time, if Viteu thought that is was such an oversight that he needed to raise it privately, why when he was given that go ahead, did Viteu apparently decide to not pursue the matter publicly, at the time? As that would have been the time to do so, not now when he is throwing a temper tantrum after a reasonable disagreement (at first) and blowing it up way out of proportion.

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on February 07, 2023, 06:54:46 AMIt has been the largest opposition party that gets the post in the past, so that would be my inclination.  Luc would do a fantastic job, of course, but it was the FDT that got the most votes after the TNC.  If @Antaglha Xhenerös Somelieir says that no one in the FDT can do it at this time, and if Luc is interested in the post, then it's fine with me.

The Túischac'h is going to need to host and run the State Opening, as well as a Living Cosa, I'd imagine, in addition to the CRL duties.  So whoever wants the job should be someone who:

• is comfortable conducting meetings over Zoom.
• is able to help scrutinize legislation in the CRL.

As the FreeDem Leader, i will confirm that the FreeDems support Lüc da Schir as Túischac´h, and will also second the nomination with my own 14 seats

The seat allocations for the FreeDems is as followed

Antaglha Xhenerös Somelieir: 14
Miestră Schivă: 14
Açafat dal Val: 12
Üc Tärfă: 10
Bradley Higgs: 10

Hi all,
First off, I'm sorry this is so late in election season, mh has not been the best of late, but I'm here now, and as FreeDems leader I fully endorse and support @Martì-Paír Furxhéir for senate, if you agree that the King has been an absent king for to long, if you believe that less red tape is needed, if you think @Ian Plätschisch has done a great job as Seneschal then vote for FreeDems for the Cosa, Senate and Provincial seats. We need your support and if you wish to join our party then please contact me or @Ian Plätschisch, the party secretary, for more information.

With respect with my own activity, although i am not as active as i would have liked, since becoming the FreeDem leader, i have been MORE active not less, and even before i was becoming more active, (alot of my absenses is due to exhaustion and/or mental health stuff, but i am doing my best to be as active as i can be, and am upfront about this) but that is neither here or there.

The main reason i believe the King's inactivity has come to crunch point, is the simple fact that a CONSTIUTIONAL MONARCHY as we are in talossa, cannot function effectivley WITHOUT an active monarch, and as a Monarch, in a consitutional monarchy, the King is effectivley part of the Government, and functions as such in law, within Organic Law, and if the king is not around and neglecting those duties, as King John has done for 7 YEARS, the government cannot be said to have been fully functional, and over time as the inactivity has worsened, the FreeDem's ability to govern has worsened, the government has not been in a functional state with an effectively vacant throne, also, we have managed  to do alot despite the absesence ofthe king, but we can only do so much in the face of the Kings absence. The TNC glossing over these arguments, and the assertion we are doing this as a distraction of Government records, obviously misunderstand what a Constiutional Monarchy is.

Also, if the King did poke his head in, it was with a full show of political bias against the government, and often vetoed the ELECTED branch of government. Without any consultation before doing so. Then goes back into hibernation. And im sick of the defence of a King who is absent and is so obviously partisan, a blind person could see it. All of this and more is why THE KING MUST GO!
