This reminds me - Isn't there a bit of a conflict of interrest in being both president and speaker? Not that I fear abuse of power or anything just in principle?
Not that she has any Speaker powers to begin with but Yoshi is right...
I'm not remaining as Speaker. The article just took longer than I'd intended; I meant to post it before the vote.
I'm hoping for an enthusiastic Member of the Diet to be my replacement.
