Rob the Bruce's "Proper" Speaker Run
Rob the Bruce
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,
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
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.

It's just crazy enough it could work. Or not 😮
Won't know until we try
Bah if it all goes wrong there's some sort of impeachment policy in the speaker act somewhere you can get rid of me under.
You have my backing Rob, old bean o7
Same ideas everyone has had for months and has never impelmented?
Possibly.
I'm planning to actually get the implementation bit done though.

Could be worse, I could be trying to implement more of that legislation stuff you're so heavily against.
As i said in Congress PM's, full support. Im confident the next Congress will be lively, solid and hold the Government to account, whilst learning from mistakes over donations and communication 😃
Best of luck, VOTE ROB.
voted for you last term and I plan to do just that 😃
Knew I should have went for Mongress...
Speaker Act is defunct as is the position 😛
Should be an easy job then.
I like easy jobs
cool story bro
'Idiot Congress member of the week' must be a addition as well. Just someone who is in the messages who is just being stupid.
Yeah, the idea needs more work.
I'll see what I can do for you
Supportedddddddddd
Congrats on getting into Congress again.
