Thank You for Voting/Knights of Round Table

Day 3,425, 09:30 • Published in United Kingdom

• by Grogu.

eUK players I would like to thank you very much for voting for me yesterday,I got 74 votes over 52%, this means a great deal to me again Thank You!

Barring some weird act of god, it looks like I will become the President of the UK from tomorrow.

I would also like to thank 23 members of congress who has agreed to the work tax rise of 4% to 6%, and James Radcliff for putting forward the bill.

State of the UK

The UK's daily income for the last week has been around 11,000cc per day, tomorrow afternoon we will have a better idea how the rise in work tax will effect our income.

I would like to ask all eUK citizen to make sure they are buying off the British market all the time and make sure you buy British even if it one penny dearer.The more we help our own businesses the faster they can grow. Sometimes during a battle if you need to buy more food or tanks it will take you to the country you are fighting in market, just change it the UK market and buy British 100% of the time.

Fighter Support

Knights of the round table

With the extra income, I will be doing my best to support active fighters who are completing daily orders and fighting for the UK and her Allies-it doesn't matter what unit you are in as long as you are British and fighting where the government asked you to you will be supported.You need to register first, you will have the chance to register to become a Knight of the Round Table tomorrow.

Business Support

Captains of Industry

I will be looking to help British citizens with UK holding companies to expand there portfolio and help citizens create new business. The more business we create this will help the country in the long term,I will also be tasking a group to keep in contact with the sellers and do deals where we can move stuff of the market quick.

Money makes the world go around

If you care about the UK and you are sitting on lots of money doing nothing, well why not give it away to others who will make good use of it, I will be setting up a point of contact where wealthy citizens can donate to the not so well off.

A strong economy is about the fast movement of monies, we could do so much more to generate a better rate of return for the country.

Just don't die

Many people think they don't make a difference in the game, but you do no matter how small it is to buying food of the market, making your kills, writing articles it all helps in making the game what it is, so just don't die!

I would like to also like to thank Huey for his hard work last month as President.

The cabinet will be announced tomorrow morning...

Until then take care,

Harry.

Did not vote for you, did not vote at all this time and I will do my fightings and workings, nevertheless I wish you and your team to make your plans come through and encourage the eUK. Best wishes.

Sir Humphrey Appleby Day 3,425, 11:09

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too:
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim,
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same:.

If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build'em up with worn-out tools;

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings,
And never breathe a word about your loss:
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much:
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

This's is gonna be a fun month

Apathetik Day 3,426, 04:46

You can shove your 6% up your arse - 4% was a happy medium. Worse still you have left the market wide open to foreign producers so you are making things worse.

Basically just says fuck off to all the young and small players - is that what your intention is?

Grogu. Day 3,426, 05:16

I would always buy your q1 food off the market but you need to invest in higher than q1 ,we can help you with that, we can always raise import tax for food we need to see how the market goes but 5/6% is pretty average and the UK was at the same % last year.

GrEnDeLi Day 3,426, 05:52

Nobody will invest in factories after the suspension the discounts to upgrade factories from Plato and this high work tax. Wide open market is the other big problem and that affects young and weak players as Apathelik mentions. Focus your attention on that in economic module.
BTW Work tax raised from 2% to 6% (not from 4 to 6) ... be exact and correct to get others attention. And don't delay, form the government ASAP.

Grogu. Day 3,426, 05:59

Government is formed. High work tax is 10% please check what other countries offer and this is a trial ,so far the country has made an extra 10k and by looking at things instead of 11k daily revenue it will rise to 30k a day. And the country can invest in factories for it citizens trust me my friend this will be a win win for everyone ! you need to think long term.

Grogu. Day 3,426, 06:08

FYI
Slovenia 10%
United Arab Emirates 7%
Colombia 7%
Uruguay 6%
Greece 6%
Egypt 6%
UK 6%
15 countries on 5%
6 countries on 4%
12 countries on 3%

I will see how it goes for a few days then to help companies maybe we can go to 5% which I think seems the average. and trial that rate.

Please remember with the extra funds raised these will be spent on ALL UK citizens in form of supplies and cc.

GrEnDeLi Day 3,426, 07:59

This 6% work tax will kill young players. Мostly multi accounts that do not have their own factories and work for fictitious salaries of "chief" account will remain.
The countries that you gave as proof is most uninhabited and "multi account" (except Greece I think) in eWorld. The advanced eCountries have lower (4% or less) work tax and closed (partially or totally) market.
Government: Waynekerr, Arron Daniels (old and discredited) and Aleksander Luka, James Radcliff (new and very dubious). I will not say anything more ...
