Dear Britain,
In ourselves lies the strengths that will decide our destiny. Only can we ensure the growth of our nation through our own labour, through our own determination, through our own perseverance. Only then will we be able to live together in prosperity and majesty.
Those who stood here before us did not simply receive what they had; they had to fight for it, they had to build it through the force of the talents that they possessed. Their unity made them prosper. Only through unity will we be able to prosper.
Your single greatest asset will always be those men and women who stand beside you, who live around you, who breathe the air you do, who walk down the paths you walk down. In these people you must never lose hope, and for these people you must never stop fighting, you must never surrender, and you must never tire. For your people you must always show bravery and discipline, give life and give labour.
Those with great stature continuously assume that their way of ruling shall remain eternal, that their influence is enough to put down new ideals and notions. While they take their power for granted, we, the people, suffer.
It is time for a change of leadership in the eUK. The Old Guard of the eUK, a group which has for too long led our glorious and grand nation, has had their chance and failed time and time again to bring back prosperity to our great nation. It is time for a New Guard, a revolution. It is time that the eUK return to it's former glory, and through strength, labour, and unity.
Although there is much that I wish to change with the situation in the eUK in terms of military affairs, I do realize that some of it may take far too much time, or are even close to being too difficult for me to achieve.
Instead of dreaming, I will present you with policies that can be achieved with the cooperation of our populace, if the British people decide that strength and unity are more important than greed and self-importance.
The Armed Forces Group has for a long time been neglected and inefficient, by resurrecting it and its purpose by allowing voluntary military units to participate in government programs increasing the efficiency of our military striking force and building mutual cooperation I believe we can increase our national military prowess.
× Since the privatization of military units in the eUK, we have seen the organization and mobile striking power of our country wither away. Through the establishment and encouragement of regular, organized national strikes open to all members of our community we will be able to direct mobile damage where it is needed the most and be able to take part in a collective where we all contribute equally for the good of the nation’s interests and from there bring activity and enjoyment back into our community.
× Due to the lacking organization within many British military units, a very large proportion of our citizens are left with outdated or misdirected orders on a daily basis. I believe that the government can mediate more centralized structure within our military units, by helping commanders out when it comes to moving their troops over to a smaller amount of regiments and from there proceed to have set captains. What I mean by ‘set captains’ is that before the elections, the command structure within the military units will have selected their most active members to run for the seat of captain within their military unit, and with promotion within that regiment the fixed candidate should have little problem winning.
× Another problem lays within the lack of communication between the ministry of defence and the representatives in our military units. By opening up communication through the means of having several governmental representatives constantly aware of the military priorities messaging commanders and captains within our military units regarding these military priorities, I believe that we can increase consciousness and therefore maximize our efficiency.
The recent foreign policies being practised by the government have been idle and rather misleading, where they have put too much emphasis on maintaining temporary pacts within the higher halls of government of other countries, instead of focusing on the people who make out these countries. A shift in foreign policy is needed, and with my experience within the field I believe I can help change it for the better.
× Relation building is centred around getting the people of another nation approving of us by promoting friendship between our nations not between governments but between people. With more British representation within the media and interaction sites such as IRC and Forums of foreign countries I believe that we can nurture a strong relationship between nations, on a strong basis. This has been neglected recently, leading to our diplomatic situation being centred around temporary agreements between governments.
× In a world ravaged by constant war, one of the best methods to promote strong diplomatic relations is through the usage of our armed forces. When a nation we are allied with, or intend to build stronger relations with, are in need of assistance, we can, through the national strike proposal I mentioned earlier, make good use of British nationals being visible on allied battlefields. Through the use of images of our fighting force in articles, for example, we can display our loyalty and commitment to a country and from there bring much support to our table of negotiations.
× Whilst we see rather good representation on what is going on in the world in general, we see quite little representation of what the foreign ministry is actually doing. I want to shift focus from just blindly informing people of what’s happening to actually talking about what the ministry is doing. With increased awareness of the foreign ministry’s action we can begin to see more feedback on the situation from our population and from there build a strong foreign policy based on the interests of our people.
× I believe that the British foreign ministry must focus more on those nations that, time after time, have done what they have been able to do in order to defend our right and our freedom. Nations such as Poland and Serbia for example have given us so much, yet lately the reward for their efforts have been small talk in hidden channels. I believe that we must prioritize helping our closest allies militarily, diplomatically and perhaps even economically, if possible. We need to make sure that their population knows of our gratitude.
In the coming days I will publish articles regarding my stance on home affairs, the economy, the governmental structure and I’ll start taking applications for my cabinet. I would advise all of you to keep an eye out for these updates.
Furthermore, I want to make sure that any support shown towards my campaign is greatly appreciated, and I do hope that we truly can change the UK for the better, together.
As of now, I will leave you with this quote:

Good luck in your running for presidency 😉
Go Chewie go!
Fully agree with you on military side here in Britain, there needs to be actual serious communications from the cabinet to MU commanders and captains to general soldiers and two clickers. It wouldn't be hard, just takes effort om each front and a little work now can vastly improve our troops morale, national damage output and our footing on the global stage.
Thank you Marcus, it means a lot coming from you considering your vast experience in the area.
No bother man, I like to think I know a thing or two about the military side of things.
I stand beside you o>
noff noff!
wooohooo
I would have to disagree with the military side.Due to my past as the Legion Commander this is the topic which interests me the most so I will comment on it.
On the first point - The eUK is a much stronger fighting force now than it has ever been. I don't know first hand from before my time, however going on what I have been told from many people back then, we were still a small fish in military power. Now, while not the biggest, our damage is at least enough to hold our own in many situations. When I joined we were way down the rankings on all stats side and feared almost all of our boarding countries, now we are the feared one for many of these relationships.
2 - These MUs are private for a reason, most will not want any government intervention at all. You will find it very tough to tell them how to play with their toy. The idea is also slightly outdated / irrelevant as captains are no where near as useful as they used to be. Now that three people can set orders the focus only really needs to be on them. Of course informing captains is useful but all of the one change you propose here doesn't really help much considering.
The Legion has used the setting captains before elections in the past and in fact did when I first joined the game. Again, this isn't something you can force MUs to do. If they want it to be a vote, then that is up to them.
3) How do you propose to update the Captains and Commanders more? It is all very well and good telling them that you will do it, but within game mechanics (or out) how are you actually planning to improve the current system? Currently we have a PM that gets send to every single captain, commander or 2iC that is updated at least twice daily. Everyone can also go to #MoD and type .uk to get orders directly from TWO Command or !cb to get orders from the MoD if Two orders are out of date. The newspaper is then for the public. How would you successfully add to that?
Pretty much beat me to it Carlini...
In terms of sheer military force the UK has grown a slight bit indeed, however, we were way more organized before, whilst our damage is split all over the world nowadays, which is why organization is needed.
I do not plan on forcing these changes upon military units but rather ask for voluntary consent on the improvement on MU's for the good of the country through the Armed Forces Group. I do understand that many people would not want to have the government dictating what they are supposed to do with their military units, but we are shamelessly ineffective right now and I am proposing assistance to the military units in exchange for helping the country where it matters.
By centralizing regiments through moving people over to smaller amounts of regiments and setting active captains over the regiments we could improve in efficiency.
The Ministry of Defence newspaper is not used to the extent it should be, it is rare that a MoD article gets into the top five and therefore its purpose fails, we need to promote more activity from the newspaper and advertise it significantly more.
Whilst the government may have communication channels with the military units, they are so poorly advertised that they are hardly used. We need to constantly update our military units on what needs doing, where it needs doing and when it needs doing, through actively promoting activity on #MoD and trying to encourage more activity from the leaders within military units when it comes to setting their orders. In the Legion, for example, I am the only active fighter in my entire regiment, and it has no captain as the one we had resigned. As a result, my DO's are nearly always outdated or misdirected.
Do you use the #MoD channel your self? We keep the topic and 2 bots spamming orders as we get them from TWO, then mass mail is sent to Comanders and capatins .. not a lot more than that can be done realy.
Yes, yes I do, having a channel updating the priorities is such a minor contribution if it's not advertised properly though.
It has always been an issue and in times before I joined the game I am told it was even worse - however that is just going on what I was told.
"Proposing assistance to the MUs" - Is this just telling them to cut down the regiments and getting active captains? If not, what are these extra additions?
The MoD doesn't get into the top 5 every time, no. I do note it would be in the top 5 right now if your two articles with bought votes were not there. What will you be doing differently to make sure the newspaper gets into the top 5 every time?
I don't think you quite understand. Every MU Commander, 2IC and Captain gets a direct PM from the MoD on a daily basis. You will not see this, you are not one of the four sets of groups to see this. Why would that be advertised? Your Commander and 2iC's are still told what the orders are every day.
What is it you will actually do to improve this communication then? I was a little disappointed with this reply, I thought the aim was to avoid not just saying words.
I also note that everyone that has the power to change orders has had #MoD with .uk and !cb thrown down their throat. I spammed them with it every time I updated the orders before I revitalised the MoD team.
You have my sword!
and my axe
It does seem alot of your idears are actually already happening or outdated. If your serious about wanting to run and change things it was probably a good idear to actually have started a week earlier than you have done, go round and actually speak to the departments first and find out what is going on so you can find out what is going on and then hows best to make it better.
in your last articles i was wrong in saying alot of hot air and no plans when it was you giving your vision. But it does seem more apparent in this one that you have given alot of words but you dont seem to be aware of the subject you wish to change.
I approve this message !
Officially labele😛 Awesome !
Great article, you're a good writer.
