The Civenia Syndicated
Council Aflame as Snap Elections Called
Written by: Henry Ynesi
Tonight amid the airwaves a shock announcement was made by the office of the Premier of Sobek. The Republican Council shall dissolve effectively at the end of the week as the Premier's hastily constructed Snap Election Proposal of 2017 garnered enough votes from the opposition party to be announced to take place officially in three weeks. Rumors of such a proposal have floated around the nation as infighting rocks the core of the Governing
Liberals and Greens Pact as we all know inhabited by the Centrist
Green-Yellow Bloc as the larger Senior Party and the Premier's
Social Democratic Party as the Junior Party. Leaks from the Office has suggested that among the reasons being a threatened Vote of No Confidence by senior GYB Councillors and their influence in silencing a proposed Sobeki Recognition of the Utman cause.
It has been no secret that Premier Illenia has been pushing an official recognition of the Provisional Utman Republic coupled with an official "Letter of Regret" to the Lakhzovian State regarding their recent suspiciously conducted electoral foray. In the end this forced the SDP to announce their resignation from the LibGreens and to apply formally to join the
The Left's Agenda's
March Forward Bloc which since 2009 has been solely occupied by the TLA.
An interesting electoral season shall be in store for us as the powers of the Council shall be transferred to the Emergency and Election Oversight Board, a political apparatus primarily controlled by the Imperial Commission with input from the incumbent Premier and other Senior Politicians to react to national emergencies and such. An unscientific snap poll directly after the announcement suggest a massive miscalculation by the GYB dropping from a 45% approval rating a month ago to an estimated 28% following revelations of threats lobbied against Premier Illenia. More to be released as the story unfolds.
