{eIre MoI} A long over due update
University of Ireland
Dia Dhuit Ireland,
Firstly, I would like to say 'sorry' for a lack of updates. I am currently back at work and wifi/3g is hit an miss. So this DoI article will be a bit more in depth in regards to each department, where I can be. So lets get it started, before I get hit by a CSRF attack.
Our apparent missing President Machiavelli is still working hard, all be it in the shadows. He is vocal in threads relating to DoFA work, MKD training war, discord and even congress. The DoI tracked him down for a quick interview to prove he is alive and well...
More on that impeachment law a bit later....
The DoF is going gang busters in making money for eIreland. While they were releasing weekend updates, this has stopped due to RL issues (congress was informed about this), so here I will try and recap the more important aspects, before the MoF does an end of term report.
Donations: Total Donations now equal 533,457cc, this was largely due to Nogin returning the money she was holding for safe keeping after the MTO, as explained in this article here.
Org Rent: Total Org rent now equals 21,000cc, while only 5 Orgs have been rented out, 2 of them paid 2 months upfront. If your interested in an Org, please speak up.
Tax Income: Tax income currently stand at 40,405cc which equals a daily avg of 1,443cc (but if we look at the daily avg since having regions returned, it is 1,949cc). While this number doesnt include the donations, Org rent or Taxes owed by MKD (which is currently 9,875cc), we can see it is a very nice increase from the last term.
Money Markets: Only a few trades have been made on the money markets, however this limited 'day trading' has netted an extra 5,445cc. This amount has potential to grow in following terms if time is taken to continue a more robust money market trading.
A more in depth MoF article will be published at the end of the term.
The DoD is still continuing to provide up to date DO's and work out the logistics of the training war. In recent times, we have seen some of our own try and end the training war before it got start, outside interference with RW's and continued local interference in battles.
However your government is committed to the training war as many of our citizens are already seeing the benefits of medals as well as the benefits of not being wiped.
The DoFA has slowed down a bit in regards to MPP's due to the upcoming CP election, however it has been active in showing it's support for our allies. This includes sending orders, weapons and resources (both financial and energy) to help our allies Australia and Egypt repeal airstrikes successfully. As well as keeping in contact with our allies elsewhere to ensure DOs are set accordingly.
The new congress has been sworn in and threads have been started. Due to the large number of congress members, the government is running two threads. These threads are made up of a split of all congress members, bar two who were not on friends lists, as well as Party Presidents from the top 5 parties who were on the friends lists. The PP's and cabinet are in both of the threads. While some items have to remain behind closed doors, some can be discussed. These issues that have been raised already include:
Congress thread laws: Someone questioned the need for 'keeping a civil tongue' style of laws/rules. These rules included No insults, No belittling, Keeping the thread to government matters and relevant, as well as confidentiality on some topics. While these rules might seem understandable by the majority, they did raise some questions.
Irish Army as a National MU: The question of the Irish Army no longer being the national MU came up. The removal of a national army came up last term and the congress members decided against the need for it. This was reflected in the change to the 'welcome message' (seen here), as well as the IA's own leader saying it was not following government orders (seen here in the comments section).
TW article: Someone asked where the TW article was. While we can see #fakenews claiming it is deleted, it is in fact still where it was all the time, which is here and an update here.
Impeachment Law: A call for impeachment was made by one congress member. While voting is on going, it has already failed to get the required 66% of the needed votes. While this might seem unneeded to some, it is something that is enabled by the return to democracy. Like we saw last term when an impeachment vote was launched as well. Having these laws proposed show that the congress and government system is working. While this time there is no accusations of conspiracy, it is good to see members exercising their voting privileges.
That is that for a wrap of congress. We will try and inform the public of different congress discussions, as long as they dont effect the security of the nation, which we hope you will understand. However when the time comes, these items will also be brought to the public's attention.
Your Government Team.

Ok/
I wonder how Ireland would be with a President who is capable of not leaving. Say what you want about RtK and your dislike for his politics but at least RtK was able to produce CP articles every single day.
Soon we will see you take over the functions of the President and make articles for him, right?
>articles that were of no use for the citizens, and contained only slander.
That's not my opinion to discuss, but he still showed himself in public enough to show Ireland and the e-World that he was actually leading Ireland.
To me Rusty D is running this country with his amazing sidekick Kattiaa.
That is not leadership. In a village with a sewage problem, do you want your leader to be like: "Hey guys, we are in deep sh*t so let me write you some stories to get your mind off for a moment"?
I will bet my horse on the one that goes balls-deep on the problem, jumps in the sewer, strait into the sh*t and starts doing his thing do unclog the sewer
Disappearing is not leadership either. The public who are not in congress need to be informed by the President not by the Minister of Foreign Affairs or the Minister of Defense.
He might be vocal in congress and the other threads, but this is hidden away from the public eye.
agreed on that one, i had encountered the same problem in Switzerland. Still all the ministries are working properly so there is no actual damage done to the country, in comparison to the latter one`s term.
Also, there could be any number of reasons he hadn`t published anything in the recent past, i will not open that discussion because we are not qualified for it. All i can do as a congressman is confirm to the people that elected me that our CP is indeed very much present.
Ireland only had 1 problem during my term and his name is Rusty. The people that was his audience is now in charge of spain. fyrom did not even want to discuss matters with me or any member of my government because they wanted their boy rusty in here. g* knows what he intends to do here as according to some sources he has some kind of 3 month plan with us. I truly are worried about that as we handed him about 900000 reasons to hurt us.
rusty is nothing but a thorn in the flesh of decent players his kind should be kicked from the game. how a person like kattiaa is allowed to play here among normal players is beyond me.
You know all about disappearing dont you BDR?
Yes I do because I was by no means a perfect President and made huge mistakes nor am I a perfect human. There's only one perfect human on this planet and that is you Rusty D. You are also the evidence of perfect leadership someone who can never fail considering you are not imperfect but THE only person that has never made a mistake ever in his entire life.
Rather 1 disastrous President term than 12 terms achieving literally nothing of real value.

Department of Information substituting CP articles interesting. guess real rule is too boring for our absentee CP machiavelli.
😒igh:
"Donations: Total Donations now equal 533,457cc, this was largely due to Nogin returning the money she was holding for safe keeping after the MTO, as explained in this article here."
Good to see the truth of what happened reconsigned by the current government ie an illegal MTO
Once again thanks nogin for you due diligence in this matter
