Bamber for CP
bamber
There are clear problems the eUK faces such as a dwindling community which has been ignored by previous governments which I want to try and tackle head on. Instead of it being ignored I believe our nation/government should face up to the fact that the community is dwindling and we need to do something about it urgently I want to see a return to the vibrant community the eUK once had.
This is why I am running for CP, one thing that has kept me playing this game since 2009 is the community within the eUK and specifically the PCP, I believe that I'm in a good position to provide solutions to these problems by working with others on the political spectrum, it's also, of course, beneficial that the PCP is outside the main squabbling of the current parties.
Only by putting aside our domestic infighting can we be certain of having a government of the most capable, working together for the eUK as a whole. No clique within the eUK can claim to have the best of every position and so only a government of national unity built on merit can give us the best the eUK has to offer.
I offer to the eUK my time, activity and enthusiasm, I have the drive and determination to improve myself as well as hopefully the eUK as well.
My core beliefs which I have expressed time and time again through my articles as spokesmen of the PCP are that every single one of our citizens needs to feel like they are invested in and benefit from the nation as a whole and that we as a government bring together our community in order to help them achieve whatever they find enjoyable.
I want transparency in the decision-making process with a cabinet combined of the best the eUK has to offer from across the political spectrum. The eUK has always come first for me and this is the reason I have stepped up to ask for your support for CP.
Yes I lack experience. I lack experience of stealing from the treasury, I lack experience of running away from my responsibilities. I lack the experience of not bothering to keep people informed. I also lack experience of making decisions on a whim and know that several experienced minds are better than one. If you want experience like that you should look elsewhere!
Activity and Engagement
We all know it's true but no one seems to want to really address the issue rather than just acknowledge it. The eUK community has been slowly dwindling away. This doesn't have to be the case, we can actively support activity and engagement as a government.
For example if we were to treat the media module in the same way we do the military module, providing financial incentives and prizes for journalism. It'd cost very little to have weekly competitions for the best article, rewarded with a prize, but it provides another couple of regular weekly articles with purpose as well as engaging the community and rewarding those who put time and effort in to our community.
Cabinet
I want experienced members within my cabinet however I also want it to be clear for people to understand what deputy ministers should be doing and that they are getting the experience they need by working in that ministry. I don’t think we should just expect people to know what they should be doing and that is why I want experienced members of cabinets working with those who are less experienced but keen to learn. The deputy should be there as a partner to the minister not just somebody to pass tasks onto. As such each minister will be responsible for encouraging their deputy to show their new understanding through government articles explaining the roles and tasks of their particular ministry. This both acts as a learning tool for the deputy and eUK overall alongside providing transparency and activity
The benefit of having deputy ministers is that it provides knowledge and opportunities to those people who will become our future ministers and even maybe CP, we want to have active and intelligent citizens in the eUK.
Defence/Foreign Affairs
A must for the MoD is that our citizens are receiving timely battle orders and that supplies are being delivered, I will do this by having a good MoD team who are active and who have the experience to deliver. There should always be someone available to update orders, give out supplies and to seek out fighters from outside the eUK if the need arises, this will be done by having regular contact and communication with our allies and alliance. I am also keen to provide help to our active and trustworthy citizens the help to upgrade their training grounds, the government will be considering a number of options which will benefit the eUK and the citizens.
I would like to maintain our strong relations with our allies and would like to keep friendly with those nations who we share great mutual respect with.
However, we must understand our allies and friends and how we can best help them.
The eUK has come through hell and high water because we have had allies that we could rely on when we've been at our most in need, and they came because they know they can rely on us as well. It's a matter of pride to be a respected nation that stands with her allies when she's needed.. My policy is that first and foremost we will always be giving our best to support these nations. We will continue to support our allies and have an alliance which suits and serves the eUKs interest.
I do not agree with an aggressive foreign policy. I want to have good relations with eIreland and mutual respect which works for both countries and is enjoyable for both of ours countries citizens.
This is where I want to lead the eUK: toward supporting each other as a community, a government of merit rather than of cliques, where allies know of our reliability and return the favour, with wars that engage not just our community but others in positive and enjoyable ways, free from infighting that clips our talent pool depending on which clique currently has sway.

Good luck!
Words, noble words, but still just words. Much like the real life Left, you seem to be basing your candidacy on 'muh feelingz' rather than the issues. "I want us all to hug and love each other", well HOW are you going to heal the damage? What do you think has caused this divide and how do you propose to change it?
PCP are not outside of the 'squabbles', you have picked a side, it's just that you guys are so small and irrelevant that no one pays much attention.
Is an intent to reach out across the divide not more beneficial than not wanting to even try, or in fact pushing that us and them agenda?
And ya know I'm going to bite on that. In what way has the real life left been about feelings? As far as I recall we had a very clear, policy driven manifesto with costings which directly address the issues our nation faces.
As opposed to vague ambigious catchphrases and costless policyless manifestos.
You see what you want to see because you sit on the right. The right is far more fuelled by emotion than anyone.
It was the right that uttered "people are sick of experts" it was a right winger on wife swap who in trying to make his claim said "You have facts and statistics and all of that, all I've got is what I feel". It's the right that purposefully spreads misinformation and is relying on nonsense memes to try and create a narrative.
was you this easy to trigger before? I dont remember you to be.
Mate I'm not trigerred xD
I'm always up for a debate and enjoy it, there's no losing my shit going on with it ^_~
Were you always this much of an internet edge lord before? 😛
you know full well I was! 😛
a little bit more productive maybe, but still a shitlord
Some of us are just built to be windup merchants and attack dogs
It's just the way it's meant to be 😉
amen
I hope you already got in touch with the people you want to make a cabinet.
Nice manifesto
Thank you and yes we have 🙂
so it's a clique?
For anyone not sure, examples of a clique are,

The perfect example of good a clique can be!
Rory, still so salty.
A government of cliques is a pretty useless slogan. Cabinets can only be filled with people who actually apply for positions. Pretty sure the last 12 months of government has had to fill posts with people because no-one bothered to apply.
As you haven't publicly asked for people to apply to your cabinet, I'm assuming your process of picking people you know/like is purely based on merit, and not a clique at all.. Right?
Good Luck Bamber
Best of luck, Bamber o/ I think you've released a fine manifesto with some great ambitions for our country.
"For example if we were to treat the media module in the same way we do the military module, providing financial incentives and prizes for journalism."
Funnily enough this has been done a couple of times before, and it tends not to bring new writers out of the woodwork but rather reward people who are already putting stuff out semi-regularly. Which isn't necessarily bad per se but I get the feeling it's not the effect you're after.
Maybe worth finding out what holds people back from writing articles then. If we don't talk to people we will never know 🙂
interesting topics are one
being that into this game, is another.
Add them both together and you get nothing.
Time is another. Any fool can write a wall of text and publish it. The skill in getting people's attention and keeping it long enough so they read. That takes time and effort.
Still, TL😉R 8/10 needs more cats.
ok
At least you have cats in it!
Not enough though 😛
good luck
Good luck!
Good one
10/10 for the effort and thanks for the invite to be MOD.
^Good shout asking Prince Harry. The interim gov has had a bumpy landing into the unknown but this dude has been solid.
Good luck.
Would be more inclined to support had you ever said a darned thing when you were in Congress, other than putting up the traditional newbie "change the minimum wage" proposal, which, as always, was voted down almost unanimously (yes, I know, I did the same thing when I first got into Congress....)
Anyway, let's see you active on the Congress threads and holding some ministerial positions first. Last thing we need is a CP who doesn't know what is going on in the world.
Good point of view Madelina, everyone wets their beak with active congress and minister posistions for a reason
However, considering the others on the list of candidates, unless someone like Paul or Wook or Woldy steps up, bamber will get my vote. And a fervent prayer that he picks good advisors.
Still a few days for other candidates to pop up.
It's usually the cabinet that can make or brake a cp run
No love for Harambe huh?
When did I put up that proposal? I think you've got my mixed up with somebody else.
your first couple days in congress.... it was either minimum wage or tax rates, all of us seem to hit one or the other when we first are elected.
Well I have looked back 7 months and can't find anything.
tl:dr seems good enough for me.
