Scipio for the East Midlands

Day 518, 11:13 Published in United Kingdom United Kingdom by Scipio The Great

Some of you know me, most probably don’t, but I’ll be standing for re-election in the East Midlands as your congressional candidate for the PCP this Saturday.

Since my arrival on eRepublik my commitment to the UK, to the East Midlands and to the PCP has been impeccable and it will continue to be so while I work for you. My obligations as I see them are firstly to you, but also the UK as a whole and I shall fight for what I feel is right at every turn.


eUK - What I’ve done so far

Something that I did from very early on and continued to do is write articles, both for my own paper, as political editor for the Economist, for my party, the PCP, for the eUK Home Office and, most recently, as a fellow satirical writer for Rastari’s newspaper2.

I began as apprentice at the Ministry of Migration and Support, for which, the following term I became Minister. From MoMaS, this term, I was appointed Minister of Home Affairs. I am the clinic director for the East of England and currently run the eUK Lottery. I am also in the Royal Guards. If elected this will be my third congressional mandate in the East Midlands.

The heart of the eUK is in the forums. Understanding this I have been very active on the forums and in-game and I will continue to be so on your behalf, the citizens of the East Midlands.


East Midlands

One of the most important functions for an older citizen is to communicate with newer citizens to explain to them what they can be doing, how they can contribute to the UK and to support them with questions they may have and finances if necessary. I am regularly messaging new citizens and welcoming them to the East Midlands. I see communication one of the key aspects to a congressman’s duties.

I am always willing to help new members to eRep and anyone else who has any questions. This I have already been doing and will continue to do during, if elected, my seat in the East Midlands.

With Del Fuego, Soultrader and Lee Richards we have all participated in working for the East Midlands. Last term I used my congressional allowance in support of projects that hopefully encouraged involvement in the East Midlands and aided in the growth of our community – namely, competitions and the raising of funds for Sync Enterprises (a company that will work for the people of the East Midlands) – this term I will again put the congressional funds into such programmes.


PCP

Understandably, a vote for me is also a vote for my party. Although I shall work for the East Midlands primarily, and do so tirelessly, I am very confident in my ability to apply the principles of my party to do as much good as I can in our region.

I believe in the equal treatment and pay of all of us. This can not be better exemplified in my work for and with the People’s Commune. It is a group of companies that are continuously growing. We pay all our workers equally regardless of their skill. From the very new to the very old and highly skilled we are all paid the same - £1. We then distribute to all our workers food and gifts for free. Any profit we make on any surplus is immediately ploughed back into the communes.


Some views

The important ones have not yet changed since last time so if I may, I’ll just link in to my last manifestos.

International – last terms manifesto.

Economy – first manifesto.

Lastly I would just like to draw your attention to my work for the Home Office. The Ministry of Home Affairs is a new conception this term and its main aim is as a ministry, both as an organisation and a media presence, in providing support and information on all aspects of eRepublik to eUK citizens. So far, I have worked hard to set up the Ministry and establish it as, not only a place where people can go for help and ask questions, but also as a tool to inform citizens of the eUK. The work to achieve these aims will be on going and will never truly be finished, but hopefully I have given it the best start it can have.


If you have any questions please ask.
Finally and most importantly, no matter who you vote for, don’t forget to vote.


Thank you.
