THE NEWS
Welcome to this edition of UK Today!
This section is a special announcement from the government of the eUnited Kingdom.
(As posted here.)
Yesterday we lost the battle for London. It was a long, hard, expensive fight, with big tanking and considerable allied support on both sides. Many people from the UK and from allied nations showed incredible effort and dedication, including hard hitting tanks, strong military units, generous benefactors and tireless suppliers. To everyone that fought for London yesterday in whatever manner, to every single citizen of the eUK, and to our great allies who gave up so much for us, we give our heartfelt thanks.
This battle has reminded us that we have an incredible group of friends, both men and women of brotherhood that can be counted on when and wherever there is a need, to give their effort, their time, their all in the pursuit of friendship. Our allies had critical battles on many fronts, yet still sent incredible amounts of damage and support.
To these, our cherished friends in Serbia, Macedonia, Hungary, Spain, Turkey, Poland, Sweden, Lithuania, Slovenia, Latvia, Indonesia, Iran, Estonia, Japan, Slovakia, and to the many individuals that answered the call of friendship today, we salute you!
We will not forget.
The battle is over but the war is not. Our fightback began immediately, with Canadian economic colonies being stripped one by one, and British regions being returned to us with stunning rapidity. Canada paid dearly in gold and in credibility with its allies to take London, it is paying dearly with its losses in resistance wars now, and it will pay even more dearly when the time is right.
The bonds of fighting friendship were forged yesterday: forged in fire, forged in hardship. Such bonds will prove difficult to break. The enemies that yesterday dealt a blow will see, will hear, will realize that in their path stands a group more unified than ever, more at ONE than ever before. Soon we will be together again in London- not scathed from defeat, but rather celebrating in glorious victory-
And they will not soon forget!
Again, we give our warmest and most heartfelt thanks to those that fought to defend London yesterday. To pledge our support and to say- just as you were there for us, we shall be there for you in due course.
Thank you
Signed,
Kevy Shabado, President
Thatcher, MoFA

" Canada paid dearly in gold and in credibility with its allies to take London, it is paying dearly with its losses in resistance wars now, and it will pay even more dearly when the time is right."
I really don't know what this means, seriously. We barely touched our Treasury gold (http://www.erepublik.com/en/country/economy/Canada), that battle was mostly fought on the personal gold of citizens, and yes while we lost some economic boosters, we still have more than the UK. As for loosing credibility with our allies, I am not actually sure what this means. We gave our allies a 48 hour heads up that we planned to attack, coincidentally the same amount of time we gave the UK to accept a peace agreement.
I agree that London was a great battle, and the UK and her allies fought very hard, however can you stop it with the "we will get revenge bit", it just makes you look petty.
And as I have said, we are up for Peace whenever you guys are, just say the word and we can both move on to bigger things. While you may have your tank back, don't let it go to your head, we have our arsenal as well.
Let's move on...
I highly doubt they were talking about your "treasury" gold, all 700 of it. : s
^Ach Dish, thats a very big eCanadian stash, compared to the eUK treasury gold, all 0.27 of it!
