Rob the Bruce's "Proper" Speaker Run

Day 2,438, 11:04 Published in United Kingdom United Kingdom by Rob the Bruce
Otherwise known as "wanting to roleplay a secretary"

Right this term I'm doing a "proper" Speaker run with plans and everything, as opposed to my usual "run for the lols and still not do badly" sort of thing. I've told my PP so according to the Speaker act I shouldn't be boycotted by Alfagrem/UKPP, so that's good.

Onto the actual plan then...



My plan is, quite conveniently, largely based on some old articles I wrote, mainly THIS one and THIS one. Basically, if you can't be arsed to read my crap:

1. MOAR public involvement.
2. MOAR congress articles
3. MOAR methods of comms

And, of course MOAR LEAKED PMs. Not the "sensitive" stuff, obv, just the stuff I can take out of context to make the none SexyUKRPCongressKrew congressmen look bad.


How I feel about the plan

1 & 2: ARTICLES AND PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT (leaks too)

These 2 points I can achieve by doing just 1 thing: Writing articles. What about? Well my Speaker articles will be a bit of explanation into what crackpot ideas congress has been banging on about, interspersed with some PM screenshots and inviting you, the public, to have your opinion and bicker in the comments section. I'll even stick my views in the bottom somewhere. Also an article about how active the congressmen have been will be thrown in towards the end of the term.


MEGA LEAKS

3. MOAR METHODS OF COMMS

For multiple terms Speakers have attempted to pidgeonhole congressmen, effectively saying "I plan that we use my preferred method of comms because it's better IMO".

Their plans always fail and congress ends up using either forum or PMs.



My plan 'ere can effectively be summed up by an extract from my old (and not well voted up you ungrateful swines) article.



So, in essence, I'll open the group PMs as per usual, and also provide direction for how to get on the forums and get congress access for those not already on it, and then simply stick links in the PM to any forum threads that appear and also send any important points from one PM group to the other, allowing the two separate PM groups to effectively send ideas to each other through my good self. And then hopefully the "ideal system" I came up with in that old article will begin to take shape, maybe even with a modified step 6 for ideas to actually come into practice.

TL😉R (obviously the most important part of the article)
