I have been asked to submit the following speech on behalf of the Security Councillor. They ask that I take the following oath before submission.
I, thegemini, swear under oath that I have cut and pasted the following speech in its entirety into this thread. I also swear under oath that I'm not committing fraud or misrepresentation.
The Security Councillors Speech:
Mr. Delegate, Mr. Vice Delegate, Mr. Speaker, Regional Assembly members, Court Justices, Mr. Attorney General, NPA members, Cabinet Ministers, my fellow Security Councillors, Residents and my fellow Citizens:
As our Citizens go to the voting booth to vote in our General Election I wish to speak on my experiences with the current Delegate, Lord Ravenclaw and the state of our Democracy.
First I would like to give an overview of my background.
I have been involved with TNP for nearly 12 years, give or take a little. I have been in virtually every Cabinet post and have been a Security Councillor for many years. I have had the honor of being Delegate, a honor that some will have. I have had the honor of helping frame our Regional Constitution years ago, a honor that few may sadly ever experience.
I have been truly happy in my stay here. Of the over 13,000+ hours of time I have spent on here I can say I have had my fair share of regrets and victories.
I have seen Delegates and Administrations come and go. From the lowest lows to now where we are today as the largest democracy and region. I'm proud of how far we have come since introducing our first Constitution.
I have experienced the good, bad and ugly sides of Delegates before.
Unfortunately, I just never knew that it would be my own utter stupidity and ignorance that would one day cause me to write a speech on the outset of voting, and to solve a problem I should have tried to solve long ago.
I greatly hope that what I have done by not speaking up, will not cost us our very democracy and way of life here on NS. Many of you will be in disbelief. I'm sorry if this is going to come as such a slap in the face for most of you.
But once I found out what I'm about to tell you, it was already to late because the person was already in power as our Delegate amid widespread support and after a seemingly glowing civil service career up to becoming the Delegate.
It took Lord Ravenclaw less time than me to become Delegate. As a old timer I'm humble enough to not find anything wrong in this; plus there have been Delegates in the far past that have come to power in this Regions early days under far less peaceful and democratic means.
Little did I know that right under my nose was one of the most backroom dealing, treasonous, manipulative, charismatic and thoroughly un-democratic Delegates that I have ever met.
Before becoming our Delegate, Lord Ravenclaw was Vice Delegate in Osiris. He ran on a platform with a character called the Dourian Embassy.
To make a long story short this Dourian (I might have misspelled the name) basically Couped the region. He was a very shady character, manipulative etc.. This happened, I think, a very considerable period of time before Lord Ravenclaw joined our region and perhaps before creating the Kingdom of Alexandria.
During his tenure in this region Raven has repeatedly used off site chat forums, not on TNP or NS, to speak to certain people for mostly shady dealings. This is were he got the idea originally for his "fireside chats" that him and the Vice Delegate have done and are considering doing again if they win a second term.
Only I and another Minister knew about these dealings. I'm not sure if our Vice Delegate, Bootsie, knows or not.
In these chatrooms I have experienced, in short order, the following happen on the Delegates part:
1. Ravenclaw admitting that the Dourian Embassy and he ARE THE SAME person!
2. The giving out of the North Pacific Army Manual to the DEN and our allies. The giving of the manual to The Kingdom of Alexandria (a region Lord Ravenclaw founded).
3. The giving out of the Diplomatic Protocol Manual to the DEN and our allies. The giving of said manual to The Kingdom of Alexandria.
That's just a scratch on the surface. That's just the unethical semi dirty things on the spectrum. Here is the rest:
4. Entering into a secret alliance with DEN and Valdoosa, they have both been condemned by the World Assembly, to "fix" the citizenship app process to expedite Den sleeper nations into TNP. Ravenclaw hopes that if he gets enough members in he will have the Regional Assembly stacked in his favor to create a dictatorship.
Under the current Constitution all citizens are automatically Regional Assembly members and thats why he has done this. So far he has interfered with 23 apps to expedite their wait time all of which were a list of puppet nations from DEN passed between RavenClaw and the General of DEN in a off site chatroom.
4. Raven has had the Vice Delegate go ahead and post that these nations (puppets) had passed their Vice Delegate check when they never did. The Vice Delegate would never run a check on them.
5. Raven has run false Admin checks on the same nations and claimed they passed.
6. A freshly minted Deputy Attorney General is a member of DEN. So is a Court Justice and a Deputy Speaker!
When I found out in the chatroom that Raven and Dourian were the same person I only wish that I would have tried to do something then. This was a month into Ravens Delegacy.
It is because of this that I am anonymous. I cannot risk posting without an intermediary like ,thegemini, because my user name will register on the post.
I'm sorry.
I might reach out to mcmasterdonia.
I was planning on just resigning but I'm not now.
This is my plan.
1. I will come forward and reveal my identity and give overwhelming evidence of the Delegate's corruption if:
A. Raven doesn't become Delegate again.
B. I am granted/promised immunity from prosecution from not coming forward sooner.
OR
2. Instead of waiting on Raven to lose election HE CAN RESIGN IMMEDIATELY!
I can't come forward while such a character is in power as Delegate.
I'm afraid if he ever asks if I betrayed him I will have to lie and commit fraud under TNP legal code.
Finally, I would like to endorse thegemini for Delegate.
Its my opinion that his heart is in the right place and that he has a lot of courage. Its because of this courage that I chose him as my intermediary for this speech. The speech of my career.
A good heart and courage make all the difference in the world. It doesn't matter how little or big the experience of the politician or Delegate.
I believe very much that thegemini can guide TNP with a steady hand. All he needs are Ministers that will guide him fairly and a Vice Delegate that is solid in character.
I pray that those who read this proceed wisely,
-G.
