June/ July Update

We, JOHN II, King of the British Isles by the Grace of God and Parliament bid all those reading this statement greetings!

We find ourselves in the most peculiar of situations. The dominating political party of the British Isles has, as could be expected, gained a majority within the House of Commons and comfortably so; its presence extending out from the Chamber and into the House of Lords. And yet, as mentioned, we are in the most peculiar of situations; both my government, and my official opposition in the House of Commons, are headed by the same individual. The minority government enjoyed by the Prime Minister is based on the back of the Parliamentary majority of a Political party that is not his own; no doubt this terms shall be fragile, yet we are filled with optimism for the potential of consensual governing originating from such fragility.

My government shall see the focus shift from simple activity to executive activity; current levels of activity shall of course be maintained or built upon, however the activity of the government in her official capacities shall be heavily increased - that work ethic being extended to our Parliament.

The legislative agenda for this term shall include an amendment to the Elections Act, the rewriting of the Criminal Code, and the introduction of standards during elections through an Campaign Regulations Act. Further; my government will oversee the reform of the WA Act, and will make every effort to ensure that the position of WA Delegate is in fact elected again in the near future; as it should have been, were such elections not neglected.

My government may be fragile; but it shall push to be a proactive one, rather than reactive. With the cooperation of you, the citizenry, we are confident that this term can be successful; setting a precedent for the next term and all that follow.
