Congress Manifesto: Logiconor for East of England

Day 1,250, 09:18 • Published in United Kingdom

April 25th Congress Election
Logiconor for East of England

In this, the first article of this paper, I intend to put myself forward as a congress candidate, and outline my plans for the term.

On April 25th, I will be standing for election in the East of England, as an official TUP candidate.

So, why should you cast your vote for me? Here are a few things to consider.

Experience
> A player since July 2009, I've seen many congress members, presidents, and even political parties come and go. I've seen the slip-ups. I've seen the price. As a congress member, hopefully I can help us avoid them.

> I spent two terms in the Ministry of Home Affairs, one term as an Apprentice in the Entertainment section, and one term as the Underminister for Recruitment. I know what it's like working for the country, and I've done it before.

Views
> I'm ~~an awful dirty~~ socialist, and I honestly believe we should help those who need it through systems like The Unity Food Program.
Without TUFP, many of our younger members may have given up on eRepublik altogether. Experienced players helping those newer players to realise their potential is the only way we'll survive as a nation.

> In terms of foreign policy, I believe we should have access to battles at all times, and we should gain regions with resources where possible. We shouldn't attack regions we can't secure and keep, and we shouldn't attack regions if it'll leave any of our own regions vulnerable. Expansion is nice, but our own land should come first.

Transparency
> If elected, I will endeavour to post an article weekly, outlining what votes have been going through the House of Commons, how I've voted, and why. It's only fair that you know how your elected officials vote, and that you can hold them to account if you don't agree.

> I don't know everything. I know that for a fact. I'm not ashamed to admit that, as no-one does know everything. (Regardless of whether they admit it) I will consider all views, as everyone has a right to be heard.

But if all else fails...
