Join the new world

Sorry for being a little inactive with the weekly updates but with all this school work I didn't have time :/. Anyway I'm back now and will try my best to publish at least one article per week.

Now let's the the business and go into the British Gossiper's segment:

Proposal #1:

Alliance

Proposed by Blue And Evil, 6 days ago
Debate Debate Area

President of United Kingdom proposed a mutual protection pact with Bulgaria

This passed 33-0. Obviously I voted yes.

2.

Alliance

Proposed by Sir Marvin, 5 days ago

President of Poland proposed a mutual protection pact with United Kingdom.

This passed 29-0. Again I voted yes but I guess some people were out sick that they and didn't vote.

3.

Alliance

Proposed by Blue And Evil, 4 days ago

President of United Kingdom proposed a mutual protection pact with Spain.

This passed 33-0. I voted yes and no one was out sick today 🙂 XD.

4.

Donate

Proposed by Sir Rex Fleddington, 4 days ago

Do you agree to transfer 5000 GBP from the country accounts to National Health Service?

Sadly, this was rejected with a 7-25 vote yes. 🙁 I voted yes because I do feel that the health service needs more funding, but being that we are at war with Ireland for the moment that might not be a good idea, now that I think about it, being that we need the money for war efforts. Hopefully, in the future this will pass if re-proposed.🙂

5.

VAT & Import Taxes: Weapons

Proposed by Maximus Decimus.Meridius, 3 days ago
Debate Debate Area

Taxes New Old
Value added tax (VAT) 1% 5%
Import Tax 10% 10%

This was rejected as well with a 12-22 vote yes. I voted no on this one due to the fact that we are fighting a war and now is not the time for a tax break although one should come in the future- hint hint Congress! 😮

6.

Income Tax

Proposed by Maximus Decimus.Meridius, 3 days ago
Debate Debate Area

Income tax change from 5% to 2%

This also was voted no- 😮 wow Congress your on a roll, 3 no's in a row woo good job Congress. Good job!- with a 5-30 vote yes. I voted no again as well. Now, it's not because I don't love you guys; I do- I love all my eUK folks- but once again a good proposal in the wrong time. I mean come on everyone loves a few extra pounds in their pockets now and then but.... when fighting war? Come on Congress think.Now's not the time for that. Anyway moving on...

With proposal 7.

Alliance

Proposed by GregoryG, 3 days ago

President of Hungary proposed a mutual protection pact with United Kingdom.

This passed with a 33-0 vote yes.

8.

Alliance

Proposed by ehig2012, yesterday

President of Venezuela proposed a mutual protection pact with United Kingdom.

This passed with a 28-2 vote yes. 😮 Woah! Who would vote no to an alliance with one of the most populated countries in the world? Anyway to number 9. And this is a weird one:

Natural Enemy

Proposed by Blue And Evil, yesterday

No Natural Enemy has been proposed.

This passed 22-8 yes. Umm... Are you lost because I am- Who's the Natural Enemy Congress? I guess it was a proposal to not have one so I voted yes. The other 8 people were probably as lost as I was and hence their reason to vote now.[

Last but not least, number 10.

VAT & Import Taxes: Food

Proposed by Skibbler, yesterday

Taxes New Old
Value added tax (VAT) 10% 7%
Import Tax 75% 75%

Now this is a shocker. I thought this would have been another no, but in fact it was a yes?! IT PASSED!? WITH A 19-9 VOTE YES! WTH! Once I again I thinks it's because of the war effort but for the people's sake I voted with a big N.O. Sometimes I wonder would goes through my fellow Congress members head, but now me I don't judge. 🙂 Your lucky Congress... Yourrr rreeeeall lucky......

Well that's it for today's segment:

Tune in once again next week where there will be more proposals, jokes and funny-but harmless- criticism.
GOOD LUCK. GOOD HEALTH. AND GOOD RIDDANCE!XD
