Start as you mean to go on!

I'd first like to thank all of you who voted for me or gave me support, not least the continuous back up from Mitty Woo! It was a fairly even election this time around, but with a renewed effort by the MDU! Steaming into the Congress, the big three is now the Big Four, all major parties have but a couple of votes separating them each way. Look forward to a new month of high tensions, differences of opinion and hopefully a balanced, respectful and enthralling Senate.
For my part, besides my Congress responsibilities, I will continue as NHS Director of the East Midlands, its premier voice and leader and loyal member of the TUP. In the latter two, expect increased and renewed efforts. The TUP has a number of schemes to improve both itself internally and the eUK. For more details, if you're interested, we've mentioned them before, most notably in The Unity Post.
As for the East Midlands, what I need is for you to wake up guys! I know there are more of you out there and I need you to join the forums. This isn't just for my benefit it is also for yours. You will miss out on details as to what will change in the region, and the opportunity to make a difference and even win some money! Our pub quiz team is in its formation, with meets against the West Midlands team and the North East in the pipeline. Join us on the forums if you'd like the join the team and have the chance to earn some money! I also hope to start a Football club in the Erepublik FIFA league!
I am also going to set up a regional council of sorts to this en😛
to help get more people interested in the forums and to allow other existing members of the region to get more involved!
==> Members of the East Midlands! Sign up to the forums and check out this threa😛

It won't take long at all, and it'll help you greatly!
==> Similarly, we need more people to come join us in the East Midlands! Most notably London-ers! Come up North, where you will no longer just be number, but a valuable member of the community, a name and have a chance to make yourself heard. PM me and I can even arrange you a free ticket. You won't even have to change your job! 😃
To my fellow new Congresspeople, congratulations! If you haven't already, join the forums!
To those who narrowly missed out on a spot, my commiserations. Many of you were cheated!
To the rest of you, have a great day.
Yours sincerely,
SKQ62

I just wrote a long comment on your manifesto and eRepublik barfed 🙁. Anyways, I will try to recreate the gist of it. I'm not sure I am entirely comfortable with the notion of a "central left-winger". That having been said I am impressed with what you write, and the quality with which you write it. I also note with approval that you publish the accounts of the NHS clinic that you run for the North East. I haven't seen this done for the other regions, transparency in government is a good thing!
A question about the North East. It says that it has no "discovered" raw materials. Does this mean that it will never get any RM bonuses? If I moved there presumably I would be anle to work elsewhere, and even run companies in other regions?
Thanks,

EAst Midlands even 😁.
You can work for a company in any area, as long as you're in the same country. You'd have to move to an area to start up a company, but then you can move back and still run it (especially if you use an org to own the company, because then you can still work)
