The wicked witch is dead tops charts as supporters mourn Blairs death
Today "The Wicked Witch is Dead" song rose to the top of the charts. The Judy Garland song from the Wizard of Oz has had a campaign by detractors to rise to the top of the charts to "celebrate the death of a great evil witch and the justice for catholics that the universe has delivered". The government have refused to condemn or endorse the songs use or the campaign which has been condemned by some as being insensitive.The politician was a controversial figure who to her supporters was a great leader who defended Strathaen culture from foreign threats and to her detractors a bigoted extremist authoritarian who persacuted Catholics and foreigners in the name of "culture".
Her supporters have held vigils around the world near the protests of the anti-blair supporters who held parties in the major squares to "celebrate the death of evil".Tensions were stoked at some of the protests and counter protests though things have remained mostly peaceful.Polls have showed that Blairite policies were supported by 21% of the population with 75% opposing and 6% neutral in line with the divisive politician.

CSP , Alternative and PoT sign orders banning those who commit "hate speech " from their parties
CSP, Alternative and the PoT jointly announced in a press conference that all three had signed a commitment and put into effect policy banning all hate speech from their parties.The parties in a joint statement said "Above all over party members we are Strathaens and do not accept intolerance and hate. We already have strong rules together on anti-lgbt or misogynistic hate speech but we will now add to this list religion and sexist hate speech in general. We will not accept criticism of any religious group or body of believers as a whole and will not accept naming religions in criticisms, only criticism of some beliefs or behaviours will be accepted. Likewise we will not accept generalised negative statements about men also. We will show together the values of tolerance and acceptance that have long been Strathaen values with all our respective parties implementing lifetime bans from our parties for anyone who shows such behaviour or values." The move has been seen as a move against anti-catholics and nationalist Blairites to purge parties of such extremists.These people will also be blacklisted by all three parties from joining the other parties with the Political Extremist List maintained by all three main parties. -

PoT Blairite purge begins as 187 kicked from party
The PoT "purge" of Blairites from the party has begun with plans to investigate 1,000's with party members encouraged to report any members with Blairite tendencies and in support of Blair as well as any showing hate against Catholics and other religious groups. The Party has said the 120 members kicked out will not be allowed back in and have been placed on the join CSP and Alternative blacklist. The CSP have also kicked out over 67 anti-catholics. It is expected some of the members of the Clan Assembly and Council leaders will also face investigations. The move is seen by some as a vital step in kicking extremism out of politics while others are concerned it may simply create a truly unshackled far right or end up with innocent people and freedom of speech falling victims to attempts to moderate. However as of now all three parties are remaining committed to the investigation of people with "bigoted" views or those who have "hate speech" in their past. -

Meanwhile some members of the PoT and CSP including some elected officials have announced their intention to leave and form a new Guardian Party which according them would stand for "freedom of speech and critical thinking and allowing challenging of ideas without fear "with the announcement expected within days. -
Strathae is sorry Protests end
The Strathae is Sorry protests have ended around Europe with the Friends of Strathae and Stathaen Association officially ending their campaigns throughout Europe to raise Strathaes image. They said in a statement "Hundreds of thousands of our people have mobilised in the greatest apology in the history of Europe and really helped in the rehabilitation of the Strathaen image after it was ruined by a previous anti-Strathaen values government. They have showed the true character of tolerance and acceptance in Strathae and have really showed the catholics they are not hated in Strathae despite certain extremists in the country. We are proud of the efforts and now will move towards continuing the promotion of the tolerant accepting culture of Strathae and celebration of our traditions" .The protests caused mixed reactions some feeling it is good for a country and its people to own up to its previous issues with some suggesting it went way too far and that a simple apology and the announcement of the new measures and policies that were happening anyway would have been enough and suggesting the protests if anything tarnished the image of Strathae further especially when "The wicked witch is dead" was played to celebrate the suicide of Balir Gobnet McLucais. However regardless the protests have now ended.

Strathae anthem lyrics changed in key votes to remove catholicism reference
The Strathaen government celebrated today as they won the vote in both houses to change the national anthem. The act of the anthem change got over 65% in both houses. The bill changes part of the anthem from "Gaeil iad féin is ní Caitliceach ná Protastúnach" or "Only Gaels are they, not Catholic nor Protestant..." to "Gaeil iad féin is ní fuathmhar ná móróg" or "Only Gaels are they, not hatemonger nor bigot".The change is intended to reduce the hate and show the country has moved on from its anti-catholic days. The lyrics date back from the founding resistance where the countries clans fiercely resisted a Catholic regime from outside with theocratic tendencies. The government said in a statement "It's time to move on. Catholics are not the enemies and never were but it was rather the church authorities and a catholic regime with theocratic tendencies. That is no longer the case and the Church and its followers act within democratic and tolerant bounds. We don't agree with the Catholic Church on everything but we feel the hate in the anthem and some aspects of our culture are not justified in a tolerant and accepting society. We will be seeking to root out this hate. We ask all governments , authorities and any organisations world wide no longer use the old version of the anthem out of respect for Catholics and Strathaens. We also ask all sporting authorities to ban it as hate speech in its old form and therefore ban any fans who sing it. We have word from the Strathaen Football Association and other national authorities that they are making this change." The change is not without opposition with critics pointing out its based on a war song of liberation and that its not meant to be taken as a slight on all catholics now and it has been condemned by some as "liberal sjw nonsense". The act is sure to cause controversy into the future with nationalist groups and Blairite groups vowing to use the "true anthem of Strathae".The Strathaen FA has sent a list of songs and chants in Strathaen or English including the old national anthem, anti-pope chants and anti-catholic and christian chants it wants banned from EUFA matches when Strathae plays away. It has called on EUFA to "help Strathae stomp out nationalist hate chants and songs".

The football association said "We are proud of our team and the conduct of the vast majority of fans who are naturally celebratory. However a minority of fans have took to anti-catholic chants and singing the old anti--catholic hate song that was our anthem. We have immediately issued life bans for those hatemongers along with any who have said chants about the pope. There is no room for hate in our stadiums and matches and anyone found doing so will recieve lifetime bans from any matches organised by our association or involving the national team. We are passing this list onto UEFA and asking for information regarding any incidents of the songs and chants on our "List of Hate Chants" so we can ban any they know of but we don't. We have decided to place 30 undercover investigators at each match going forward to get this issue under control and any caught on the cameras of our investigators if identified will face bans."

Government to innitiate review into anthems lyrics using the word foreigner
Strathaes government is said to be innitiating a review into the anthem again to potentially remove the word foreigner from the anthem and come up with alternative lyrics after 2 immgrants complained about the lyrics to the government. They are planning a survey of the expats of all nations living in Strathae to see how offended they are by the lyrics.The lyrics refer to the greatest warrior in the fight for the freedom of the nation being sold to foreign invaders and gaining freedom by escaping and leading armies against them. It is not meant as a slight against all foreigners but there are concerns it could be seen as such based on the 2 complaints so far.
The survey will be conducted over 3 months with panels , a vote and in person meetings between Strathaen historians and expat communities. The consultation is hoping to establish if there is great offense took at the words in the anthem or not and whether a change is indeed needed. The acting leader of Caomhnóir said "Once again the government party that supposedly exists to protect our culture and traditions is trashing it to try to appease some foreigners who have lived here a very short amount of time and probably don't care. The fact two complaints prompted this show how overblown a response it is and quite frankly if anyone does not like our anthem couldn't they accept it or piss off out of the country" . The PoT leader condemned the party and its statement as "Bigotry from known hatemongers , to tell people if they don't like the anthem to accept it or piss off out the country is pure bigotry and racism. It may be why they are hated among virtuall all non-Blairites and immigrants. We will stand with the immigrant communities and if they express discomfort we will listen , just because they did not vote for us doesn't mean we should not listen to them.
