20 August, 2009, Day 639 of the New World - Ends up our series of investigative reports got side-swiped by eUSA changes. Fortunately, we found the time after the battles of the day to look around at our former friends across the pond to see how they were. Naturally, we looked at the Bank of England. Being originally formed as an economic/political outlet, The Report had no problem finding the bookmark and looked at its donation trail.

Money Well Spent?
Oddly enough, looks like the United Kingdom has just a handful of strong Field Marshall-ranked tanks. Respectable, as many of them are voiced politicos. After tracking this, I have found a total of 200 GOLD just for wellness packs in only two days. This does not include any purchases on weaponry, gifts, and other necessary state items.
We also were looking into the various donations made to organizations and have discovered many publicly-known state subsidized organizations. Dishmcds's organization, Aurum Corp, was the only one we could not find a hint of state subsidization and last we were informed - it was a private entity.
What has this money bought you? Quite a few loses at the hands of Canadian freedom fighters are the only battle outcomes I have seen. Seems like these boys are out having fun with their own tanking.
How Much Will They Spend?
That's the hundred GOLD question, current (or hopefully future) subscriber.
Maybe you guys should call for government oversight in military operation?
The real question should be: Why are they, the government of eUK, spending over 600 GOLD in just the past week on maintaining an empire that was given to them as silver for the betrayal of their N. American allies? Seems appropriate - waste the money now instead of later. At least now you can say it was for "the defense of the eUK."

Hey, subscribe. Why should you subscribe? Because over 1,000 readers can't be wrong. Trust me, I'd know. I write this thing. That, and this video is awesome stuff. Hey, I think I saw Dish in there.
If you did not know about this, go and ask your congressman. With elections coming up, it's important to know what is going on in your country.
Vote this sucker up. Even if it is just blowing smoke and it was all accounted for, at least now this gives us a record of it occurring and can be used later on for proper expenditure tracking.

It's Blank. I cant say that this article was excellent. No Vote :l
Haha, fixed 😛 Didn't even give me five seconds to fix my error 😃
Wow. That gold could've been more wisely spent elsewhere.
Hey guys, let's spend hundreds of gold and bankrupt our government to lose to a bunch of non-tanking freedom fighters! \o/
Proper expenditure tracking.
🙂
UK fails.
I'm sure the more outspoken Brits (we all know who they are, they've been flaming any article that has any hint of Alberta in it all day) say "Oh yeahz well what about Jersey, Madrid, and Valencia? Uber pwnge." I find this to be a psychological issue to turn the attention away from the battle they lost because they can't cope with another "Farmers with pitchforks" incident.
Signed,
Dr. Spartan
Nice
Sure, but at least we are ahead of the Brits. We are only losing our country. They, on the other hand, have lost their souls. How's that feel? Probably not good.
Oh... But those battle hero medals look so shinny...
Banker cat ftw.
The thing is Jersey, Valencia, and Madrid were strategic decisions.
Emerick announced the day of the NJ battle that he wanted everyone to evacuate-- clearly we were directing resources elsewhere (eg, Alberta).
Spain chose to close up shop to close the battles against them, after observing Canada's ability to come back when it only had to fight one enemy. I'd be quite surprised if we don't see Spain back on the map within a week.
And even if New Jersey and Spain were monumental PEACE victories-- the fact is the UK had no part in them.
The UK has shown its' value to their new PEACE masters how? They can't even babysit territories that their masters won in battle.
EDEN and Fortis sacrificed 2200 Gold worth in taking Alberta and losing two fortress regions. Perhaps you should be asking yourself about your own spending?
PS - Dr. Spartan, your knowledge of geography is astounding. We pwned you in Andalucia, not Valencia. We had already taken that one.
You should invest in a globe.
UK fails at life.
Oh, sorry, the UK does still retain a Danish region it was given by Hungary in order to block Sweden. The region is called something like Midgetland, and has medium grain and 38 residents.
Well worth trashing your reputation and hundreds if not thousands of gold.
Actually, if the UK has gotten anything out of this, maybe they learned something.
Banker Cat! ROFL
That seriously just made my day. Thank you Jewitt 🙂
Great, the British MoD has resorted to making numbers up to justify the continued existence of the Ministry of Defail.
2,200 gold !?
LOL
You wish buddy.
2,200 gold was spent where? I am the chief economic counsel of the eUSA and unless Spain and Canada came up with 2,000 GOLD on their own, I severely doubt it. Through your commentary, I could probably troll articles with "UK wasted 4,000 gold and still lost Alberta" and get away with it 😛 I will not lie - I back up my arguments with statistical fact.
Now I can say that it is a good article 🙂 Voted.
Dishmcds, how come everything you touch reeks of epic fail? Stop using eUK taxpayer money for self indulgence. Your ego is big enough anyway.
kthnx!
voted. If for no other reason than the cats.
Jewitt you have to be one of my favorite players. You never let me down!
WTF BANKER CAT
Dishmcds:
Read this article and see with your very own eyes WHO tanked in Alberta:

It's UK who spent > 2k g vs small part of EDEN army with NO state founded tanking. Such amounts of gold can't beat small but well coordinated and managed force. UK has still a LOT to learn.
he means you lost 3 q5 hospitals, 3 Q5 def systems, will lose another 2 Q5 hospitals today, and have to move 6000 people out of the occupied regions.
This will be well over 2200 gold.
on top of this, moving the 600 fighters to the uk and back was another 300gold.
And the uk didn't spend more than 1k even.
Not that it matters but one of those q5 hospital regions was just saved and the other one will soon be as well 😉
Lol. Cats. Thanks. 🙂
Maybe the British are simply bad at subjugating their colonies?
Lol like Mistwalker said, Slavonia and Northwest Croatia were SECURED, and Hungary's President was just IMPEACHED!
BWAHAHA
Don't forgett to vote for Damian Jacob Tamir Jager, in the south east, and vote my manifesto up:

Jewitt, lern2spel. Organisation, defence, the eUK (not eUK).
Organization, defense and eUK are the proper spellings, so says a Websters Dictionary and Firefox spellcheck.
What else would we spend 600G on ? 😮
Right, so, Gold is meant to sit there and look pretty? Reserves are great, necessary even, but to say that it's ridiculous to ever spend anything is just... Well, stupid. So the eUK spent 600 gold, what else were we going to do with it? Have the MoF count it every day? Stare at its sparkling in the Bank of England? :/ It's a game, the RW was fun, even if we lost, and we've got plenty of gold to be just fine still in the treasury.
Awesome. I can't believe I actualled lol'ed at lolcats.
Why would we take an eMerican's word on their own expenditure?
I can verify with my own eyes the amount of Marines in that battle
lulz. this article is lulz.
~AmericanWarrior
Jewitt - If you're talking facts, how about including the 300-350 gold spent by F/E just on moving tickets to get soldiers to alberta? Or the 130 or so gold it cost to start the battle?
True, we spent a lot, but it isn't as one-sided as all that.

Websters fail at life. Use the proper Oxford English Dictionary and stop failing. Webster ruined the English Language.
