[ALFA]The Return of Keers
Grampa Alfagrem
One of the UKs most (in)famous son's returned to our nation today and instantly decided to bring back personal politics in his latest article
The TL😉
r version being.......
He does however raise some points and makes some rather bewildering statements which we may as well answer for lack of anything better to do;
"The past two months the UK has been led by Talon Karrde, who is a member of my party- TUP. He would make a wonderful scapegoat for these individuals to attack, but unfortunately he’s a relentlessly nice person and his presence in the UK means everyone knows who he is..."
Talon gets universally 'attacked' if he does something dumb such as his conduct in the cross-party harmony meeting and from 'across the benches' for action such as delaring ESO Legion to be the new National Army.
He's a big lad and he can take the plaudits and the brickbats
".... So instead the focus has switched from him to myself- away in Poland there is little I can do to counter their claims..... I was actually there firstly for my newspaper and secondly so my companies would produce more weapons for the UK."
Any attack on you from the UKPP has purely been about your position as a foreign flagged citizen being placed in (RP) charge of the CS arrangements of the nation.
You could let in a bunch of PTOers and it wouldn't effect you in Warsaw if they destroyed the eUK same would go if a eCanadian was put in charge of Foreign Affairs and decided to troll Amerika into perma-wiping us.
If you don't have a chip in the pot then you're not in the game
"The reason that I’m stepping down is that UKPP and New Era congressmen are simply ignoring me- or in the case of Goku Jones (aka Sage Goku), Spokesman of New Era and prolific vote buyer, actually approving people I reject to try and spite the UK."
You have one former eUKer who had done millions of damage for the nation to prevent it being wiped being declined CS.
You then have a TUP congressman (your own party) accepting in people who have constantly fought against the eUK, trolled the eUK and don't have shining reputations for fiscal fair play in their previous nation.
A system that is hypocritical and uneven is not a system we endorse.
"These parties accuse TUP of being an oligarchy, a dictatorship. Yet their own leadership is static and has been since their foundation. They aren’t run as political democracies at all, but rather the personal fiefdoms of their founders."
Lets ACTUALLY compare TUP to UKPP.....
Q. Which party has had more PP's this year?
A. UKPP
Q. Which party has had younger PP's and Congressmembers?
A: UKPP
Q. Which party holds monthly party conferences that ratify partywide ballots?
A: UKPP
Q. Which party doesn't throw a hissy fit if another party contacts their members and offers them an alternative opinion?
A: UKPP
We could go on about the TUP 'Council of unity', the fact that every CP they've given us this year has been 2 years old, the fact they always try to ignore CP elections if they lose by trying to impeach the winner...
Move outta that glass house before you start chucking rocks
"They even insist on their members not taking part in the UK Forums, a community with nearly a million posts and historically the best national forum in the game. They do this to stop people realising that the other parties are actually normal, cool people who just enjoy playing the game."
Simply not true in our case. In fact UKPP policy specifically mentions the freedom of choice for the player in relation to the forum, IRC and gov service.
We don't push the forum down peoples throats and force them to sign-up as despite its one gazillion historic posts it is now dead and devoid of any interest and its former function as an avenue of debate has been foreclosed.
If you want eUKers to think your cool and intrested in them then GO TO THEM don't expect them to supplicate themselves to you
"New Era and especially UKPP are far from beyond redemption.....Talon has extended to olive branch......policies are all just the opposite of TUP"
There was a window for honest debate and potential compromise but that moment passed as tbh TUP had lots of power and didn't need to compromise with a minute section of the population.
That tiny sliver of opposition has grown, has developed and now espouses its own philosophy and policies.
Some are roughly in-line with current trends (We'd all like a national MU which just disagree on its form) and some are diametrically opposed.
If you wish to dismiss them as the ramblings of a few idiots rather then the thoughts of a growing minority then.............it's people like you who are driving the divide.

Thanks to Wayne for pointing out that the pic I had of a smarmy 'person' I got off google was actually Keers hiself!
Pic changed
\o/
Alfa I think you should post some pictures of yourself aged 18 to even things up a little (:
I'd rebut your points but there aren't actually any.
That was actually the last point!
Lmao...now this is article of the day \o/
Brilliant Alfa and a very honest critique of Keers. I look forward to numerous responses now from the same party stamped deadheads with the same old accusations about you causing trouble and not caring about the eUK etc etc
There was so many lies in what Mr Keers wrote I couldn't even be bothered to reply , I think his lost the plot saying that we tell new people how bad the TUP party is , that is mental , I been in both parties and no one even mentions the TUP , talk about being paranoid and trying to stir trouble , and this person was in charge of the country no wonder the eUK is ranked 29th.
That in itself could be a result of his travels - He may of been cut off from the detail of the daily going-on's in the eUK so all he's had to base his assesment off is whatever he may of picked up in his shoutbox or on the forums. Both of which would naturally be bastions of 'TUP thought'.
......just a theory.
Or like letting someone who jumped ship and joined our enemies for a while doing everything to get the euk wiped back into the country and .......oh
I have never seen fully eye to eye with keers but i dont think his article was "all about me" but being two weeks behind the curve as it was true then that his name was being dragged through the mud
Don't think his name was being dragged through the mud as the argument was less about character then about process.
I voted from the light hearted point of view and i like to see the discussion in the comments lol
My question is, if UKPP want to become the effective ruling party, is it not in the interest of eUK to attract the richest and strongest players to eUK instead of wanting them away
tl;dr
Jamie, we're all for that. That is why a proper citizenship committee is needed... Keers has been turning down legitimate citizenship requests for far too long. Our population needs to grow and we need to attract active players from all over the globe.

Sadly Eno Live isn't around to like that comment 😮(
I would like to point out, yet again, that the Legion is no longer associated with ESO, and has not been for several months. It was chosen because we have a large, well organized group of donors who can supply young players
We've apparently had congressmen from other parties being actively told not to use the forums or follow any procedures - not from your party, but it is still a valid point. As for your TUP v UKPP comparison, why is it a bad thing that we have support from old players as well as new ones, that we re-elect good PPs and we complain when you tell our members to join UKPP or be fired from their job? We hold a monthly party conference as well, and do not try and impeach every non TUP CP.
Alfa, excellent, agreed and voted!
'It was chosen because we have a large, well organized group of donors who can supply young players'
So has the Royal Navy, Bulldogs and TUP... Legions may well have the best infrastructure in place, but in my eye's that doesn't make them the official national MU, to be awarded free advertising space and bragging rights over over MU's that do just as good a job. My own MU of 30 players pumped out 100million damage! Supplies for people willing to fight have never been short to come by in eUK
If another MU agreed to be apolitical then it could become a national MU too.
Like Dentists or Bulldogs?
