    • RE: The Banishment of the Barringtons

      Outside of Hotel de Luxury, Moraben, State of Jullien, Leagio


      Outside of the hotel that was being monitored by a team of the Leagioan Common Agency of Crime and Terrorism (CACT), the officer in charge of the raid was watching as various vechiles were on stand by in various streets that were within 5 miles of the hotel. No chances were being taken on the possibility that someone of the BO that was inside the Hotel could have even a chance to escape from justice. There were some concerns by various members of CACT on whether or not if the staff of the hotel were in on the crime and were armed. So, with that concern, CACT was able to get a high security threat warrant through a high level Leagio Judge that hears warrants of various types. A high security threat warrant is a warrant in Leagio that allows for the use of Special Strikers to be used in Law Enforcement purposes when there is a clear and present danger in a law enforcement operation that requires military trained individuals. With this warrant, CACT could move in with some relief in knowing that if the situation gets hot then the Special Strikers were on stand by for action not far from the hotel.

      “We’re all set.” Was heard from one of the radio’s.

      “Move in.” Deputy Director Marcus Williams instructed from the center where the operation was being runed from.

      Within seconds, various cameras from body cameras of CACT officers moving into the building in lighting speed. Everything seemed to be going smoothly at first in the first lower floors of the hotel as bystanders in the hotel were escorted out and staff of the hotel were held in protective custody until they were cleared. However, things began to change once the CACT team got up to the fourth floor as the sounds of gun fire could be heard with various individuals in black coats could be seen in the camera’s firing at the team. Screams from bystanders in the floor could be heard. Although, it seemed that there was not as firce fighting that was seen from the warehouse in Vese a while ago but it might have been cause of the element of surprise was being fully used as some of the suspects of the BO had looks of surprise of them as they used their weapons. A few of the members that were firing at CACT were shot dead but most were shot to the point to where they were just unable to resist any movement of arrest; one for example was shot in both of his hands as his was holding a dual set of pistols in them, where the CACT team skillfully aimed for those hands as best as they could.

      Time continued to move forward. In the control room of the operation, there was a feeling of tension in the air that could be cut with a knife as there was concern if there was more members of the BO in the hotel and there might be the chance that they will lose a officer. Some of the terrorist experts in the room were worried if there was a bomb installed in a effort that should a situation like this happen then the bomb will destroy all of the evidence that could be found and take out all the law enforcement agents of CACT in the building. However, so far there was no signs that could be discovered through the body cameras that could even tell them that a bomb had indeed been planted in the building. However, there was still one more floor in the building left for the team to explore and there was some in the room that were guessing that there were additional BO members. At least, this was the assumption that they made. Luckily, as they got to the fifth floor though, there was not as much BO operatives. It was determined that the operatives had chosen the fourth floor as their area of running in the hotel for it provided a meeting room that was constructed by the hotel itself when it was founded decades ago.

      By the end of the raid, it was determined that there was no bomb planted thankfully. All of the BO operatives that were wounded and in custody were being currently being taken to receive medical treatment, where they would be interrogated and facing heavy charges including terrorism. However, there were now questions on the outcome of the raid in the other warehouse that was outside of the city.

      Green Transition Act Signed With Juncker Present

      Many days after it passed both the House and Senate, President Ran Mouri-Kudo signed the Green Transition Act into law within the Commonwealth. This act was one of the important centerpieces of the President’s campaign platform. The act was based on the guidelines of the European Green Deal that Former IAC Juncker developed before leaving office due to term limits. These guidelines that he left behind were to make Europe carbon-netural by 2050, but Mouri-Kudo’s legislation is considered by some to be more bolder than even the United Duchies plan for 2035 as the Leagio plan is for carbon neutrality by 2032. The President gave a rousing speech before signing the bill into law with Juncker standing right beside her. The Act would also implement measures to incentivize companies to greener methods of production within the Commonwealth and initiate the means of implementing better procedures in developing alternative energies that are not harmful or less harmful to the environment. The policies that will be implemented through the act is expected to possibly reduce pollution within the Commonwealth by at least 20% by 2030 and 25% by 2032.

      When polling was done on the national opinion of the passage of the act, about 61% of Leagioans approve of the bill while a further 31% are against it. Members of different political parties have demonstrated support for the bill, while others have not and come outright against it. Councilor Julis Haller of the Civil Populist Party gave his support for the bill by saying that it was a step in the right direction for the Environment of the Commonwealth. However, Senator Dick Doconell of the Conservative Reform Party from the State of Huttson stated that he was against the bill for places too much burden on small businesses within the Commonwealth. This statement was one expressed by other members in the Conservative Reform Party and Christian Democratic-Republicans. However, members of Common Nationalists and LUTF expressed that the Act was a socialist-leftist act made by the Haanean Refugees to take over the Commonwealth. Some of the members of the two parties had even made more colorful language on their opinions about the passage and signage of the Green Transition Act.

      However, there have been some questions remaining from members of the President’s own party, the Progressive Alliance Party, on whether or not if the plan is bold for the Commonwealth to meet within such a 11 year time frame. These questions come, even though during the Presidential Debate almost more than a month where the then candidate Mouri-Kudo said that if anything her plan was not bold enough and that the Commonwealth should take on challenges for they are not easy but because they are hard.

      Former Internal Affairs Commissioner, Jean-Claude Juncker, has dedicated some time to the press after the signature of the Green Transition Act: “I’m very proud and it’s an honour to be here today along with President Ran Mouri-Koudo, who has been really nice with me. This is a very important achievement for Leagio, as they are becoming a reference on how to turn greener with effort and dedication. I’m also very happy to see how the Commonwealth is evolving so fast and using the loan’s money as they promised they would use it.” He has also been asked about running for the seat of Premier Commissioner and if he would run with the European Progressive Alliance again: “About the second question, I’ll be always loyal to the EPA. And about running for Premier Commissioner, the answer is yes, I’ll run because we need a better European Union, we need to get rid of the Sanctioning Powers Act and look for new ideas to make Europe more peaceful and to accomplish the objectives we have set in 2021. It’s possible to achieve this, and I’ll try my best.”

      An Interview Over Moriarty's Leagioan Socialism


      alt text


      Over the past few weeks, he has been a person of interest in Leagioan politics. Starting out as a founder of the Uplift Foundation, a charity that provides aid to poor families, and owner of the Moriarty Diamond Corporation ( a group Diamond company that has been hitting sells at a high level)to being a founding member of the Leagio's Territorial Government of Freedonia Constitution and its new public structures that focus on welfare for the people that reside in the Territory. Right now, he is a Professor of the University of Freedonia and is now Interim President of the United People's Front Alliance. An alliance of socialist and communist parties that seem to be saner than usual these days. Now, less than a year to the 2022 Mid-Term Elections for the National Congress, people are saying that Moriarty's Alliance ( as it has been nicknamed) might be on the way to control at least the House of Councilors and have more influence in the Senate. William James Moriarty has accepted an interview on what the Far-Left to Center-Left Alliance plans. The interview was conducted with Toby Helling of the Leagioan Broadcasting Corporation. Toby Helling is an experienced interviewer in Leagioan News for the last 10 years with high mark on many events.

      TH: Good evening, Professor Moriarty.

      WJM: Good evening, Mr. Helling.

      TH: So, we have somewhat meet before when you started the Uplift Foundation. So now, I would like to you about the founding of the United People's Front alliance. So, the Left was fractured after debates on the UNSR caused SUP to collapse in leadership. How were you able to convince the Social Workers Party to your side?

      WJM: Eventually after members of the Green Party and SUP, along with myself, got tired of the division within the left side of Leagioan Politics; where our policies were sidelined and various political parties began to take advantage of our division. These same parties were also using the statements of various members of our party that spoke in values that were not representative of the people. Like one Councilor in the House who was speaking that the Democratic system was against the people when it wasn't and portrays the wrong image about the ideas of what I believe that Socialism is about.

      TH: And what is that Image of Socialism?

      WJM: Socialism in Leagio should be about ensuring the equality of all in wealth, work, race, and everything else. Socialism in Leagio should not be able tearing down the structure, because that has never ended well. Me and many members of the Greens and SUP feel that Socialism should work in hand with Democracy. Yes, there are times that it seems like Democracy does not want to work with Socialism but thus is the frustrations of checks and balances in a government. The people voted for the constitution that they live in and so Socialist as well as Communists factions in Leagio should respect the wishes of the people.

      TH: Now, just to focus on your Leagioan Socialism Platform, could you explain that in terms of policies say in 2022 if your alliances get control of both houses of Congress democratically.

      WJM: What my Leagioan Socialism platform is something that was agreed upon with various members of all three parties involved in the United People's Front alliance. The platform does moderate redistribution of wealth particularly those that have a lot of money (and mean more than even me at the moment) say like former EU Councilor Francis Plessis, who has over $900 Million Sulias at the moment from his family Diamond business. The system would allow people that earned their money to keep at a certain rate on a certain yearly income. If you make 1 million Sulia's for example, then the government would take around 150,000 Sulia's out and give to other families through Welfare and Social Security. Another policy is requiring that all non-military businesses over 25 workers to be unionized at the bare-minium. Unions of certain sizes will have certain abilities to negotiate, while smaller ones might have less bargain power but the government will act as a mediator. In addition, the government would work on the construction of various settlement projects for the urbanization of certain of the Commonwealth that will not cause serious and irreparable damage to the world environment. These projects would provide government jobs that pay well, full-time, with benefits, discounted education, and free housing to its workers. Furthermore, these jobs would even be long-term for its workers along with their families.

      TH: What about foreign affairs? How would Leagioan Socialism affect nations such as the UNSR? As that was the reason for the SUP break-up and the forming of the Socialist Workers Party? And would you be running for President in 2024?

      WJM: In terms of foreign affairs, the alliance strives for equality on a footing with all nations that are reasonable, fair, kind to Leagio, and does not thrive on chaos. The UNSR as you ask, well, the alliance understands why they took over in the way that they did but we feel that at the moment their version of Socialism does not match ours for obvious reasons. and so a Leagio slash UNSR diplomatic exchange would not be welcoming at the moment. Focusing on your 2024 question, the answer that I can in honesty give is that I have not fully decided on running as of yet. You might hear something about that once the 2024 Executive Primaries come about in March of 2024.

      TH: I see. Now, obvious your policies might be something that the President Mouri-Kudo would not support and in order to get your Leagioan Socialism implemented after 2022 (if you somehow get both the House and Senate), how would you then convince the President to go on-board with the Alliance plans and not Veto them outright?

      WJM: In response, I think that we would then need to ask the President elected by the people this question then. 'Does she, as President elected by, for, and of the people, really represent the people of the Commonwealth if she veto's a Congress elected by the people?'

      TH: Thank you, Professor Moriarty.

      WJM: No, thank you, Mr. Helling.

    • RE: [Discussion] The Situation in the People's Confederation of Eastern Haane

      Fellow Councilors, keeping to my promise of transparency with you. I hereby announce that by following through with guidelines provided by the Four Assembled Powers on the No-Fly Zone established that the Commonwealth has landed troops in the Reitzmag sector of Eastern Haane and have begun the process of constructing a refugee camp for anyone of Eastern Haane that comes by willingly. The construction of the camp is expected to be completed by tomorrow with defenses only to protect the refugees and the people stationed there. The Leagioan troops there have been given orders not to advance or intentionally getting involved in open combat. Furthermore, they have been given orders not to aid the Reitzmag troops that are still in Eastern Haane or any of the factions fighting in Eastern Haane.

      The camp will continue to run until the motion for intervention is passed through this Council and the coming Coalition arrives, where the camp will then be turned over to the coalition itself. Furthermore, the President of the Commonwealth of the Leagio with written permission from the Archbishop of Inqusita is sending two old cruiseships that belong to a Leagioan cruise line are being sent to the ports of Inqusita to pick the refugees of Eastern Haane that have already applied for the Commonwealth's Immigration Refugee program. These two ships have been loaded with extra lifeboats and liferafts in case they are going to carry more than they were originally designed to.

      I will be sure to inform the Council if anything new develops.

All members of the Council are elected every three years during the Executive Elections. The Council of Province's is not actually considered to be a third house of the National Congress nor was it intended to be. The purpose of the Council was to be an advisory body outside of the Federal/Common Government of the Leagio, where all of the Commonwealth's states and Territories have a chance to officially loge their issues for mediation. Until recently, the Council just produced issued a resolution that was submitted to Congress and the President to hear. However, recent amendents to the Constitution had actually gave the Counil power to enact resolutions that can become actual legislation that goes to the National Congress with a priority status to it or an article of amending the constitution. The Council is mandated by the Constitution to meet once a year at least but emergency sessions can be called by the Governor-General.

      In total as of May 2021, the Council of Provinces is composed of 19 governors and the Governor-General. The following are part of the Council with their title and political affiliation attached to them:

      • Governor-General of the Commonwealth: Magic Kaito (Pact of Democracy)

      • Governor of Beika: Enos Buchanon (Pact of Democracy)

      The President of the Commonwealth of Leagio hereby calls on the Kingdom of Reitzmag to step down from its aggressive stance. The President and the Government of the Commonwealth does not support the recent moves that were made by the current administration within the government of Reitzmag towards the Kingdom of Spain and the Empire of Inimicus. In addition, the Government of Leagio wishes to announce that should this crisis turn into a war that Leagio will not join in and support through the Allied Defense Organization. Instead, this current administration in Leagio would instead decide to apply in being a neutral nation through the EU Council.

      The Commonwealth shall not be used as a tool of Reitzmag through the AOD to take part in its immature stance over a simple alliance and treaty of economics. If the current Prime Minister of Reitzmag continues with his immaturity and inability to make reasonable actions then he should step down with a new mature government being formed. Furthermore, the Government of Leagio shall demand for Prime Minister Bridges to stand down from his aggressive readiness or his government will face sanctions through the Commonwealth of Leagio.

      Huttson has finally reported its results and with it, the Progressive have a majority of 52 Seats in the Senate. However, the Progressives did not win the 271 seats needed in the House as they were able to win 223 seats. However, the number of seats that they have might be enough to influence the Civil Populists in working with their legislative agenda. In this election season, there were high turnout with 11,938,162 votes casted making a 76.23% national voter turnout.

      Common Nationalists & LUTF in Talks for a Party Merger

      Amid concerns for their standing over what will be most likely adopted when the Mouri-Kudo get's the National Congress to pass the reform on the elections of the House of Councilors for 2022, the chairmans of the Common Nationalists and Leagioan United Together Front announced that they were in the middle of possible talks to merge their political parties into one in order to have a more unified Far-Right Front that is strong in the comming 2022 elections. Although no name for such a new party has not been given, the parties will be negoitating an equal standing for the two sides that will eventually become two factions of different ideas within the Far-Right party. In the recent National Congress election last year in December, the two Parties had hardly recieved much seats in the House of Councilors with LUTF having only 11 seats in the House and 2 Seats in the Senate. The Common Nationalists had only recieved 8 seats in the House with no seats in the Senate.

      The President of the Commonwealth of Leagio wishes everyone in the Commonwealth and in the European Union happy holidays as the world celebrates Christmas. When reviewing the entire year, he is happy to say that the Commonwealth had strongly benefitted from 2020 with especially its introduction into the European back in the Spring with the Commonwealth's economy growing by over 1,000% within a short time span of just a few months. Although, this year might end with concern and suspicion over the Caspian Sea Crisis that is still being negotiated at the moment, the President continues to be faithful that a peaceful solution with be brokered in the end by the mature governments of Europe.

      The next year before the coming Executive Elections starting on February 2021, the President will be working with the new National Congress to draft a budget for the 2021 fiscal year that will help to expand the economic and electronic capabilities of the Commonwealth. Furthermore, the President will be looking to see if any modernization of the Leagioan Armed Forces will be needed for the next year.

      History of the Commonwealth of Leagio


      The history of the Commonwealth starts in around 1824 around the same time as the founding of Elthize. The United Kingdom was looking to expand its colonial holdings in Africa by building outposts and towns that would eventually be developed into money making colonies. The location of the Leagioan Colony was very unique compared to Elthize as it had the Muton River in the middle, where it was deep enough for ships to traverse closer to the valuable diamond mines in both Leagio and Elthize. Leagio was founded first with the establishment of Port Hilson in the modern day Leagioan State of Arlick with a population of around 5,000 that grew in size and population with parts of its being divided into what is now Elthize. The two colonies were given their own colonial governments that were elected with some overrides from the United Kingdom. Eventually things began to change by 1892 in what became called the Great Supression by Leagio, where the United Kingom began to start taxing the Colony of Leagio for every Sulia without its consent. Although, Leagioans did not mind taxes as much as it was not new, but the amount was simply too much that it was not put in place with their permission.

      Eventually the Government of Colonial Leagio under Governor-General Felix Sule sent the UK Parliament a direct appeal for a reduction on the taxes, but instead it achieved the opposite as the not long afterwards the United Kingdom declared the Self-Governing Charter of Leagio to be repealed and resulted in the replacement of colonial government with the institution of military government lead by a military governor appointed by the UK Parliament that formed a milita with the UK Army called the Antiparasite (a Leagio French Term for suppressors). The Antiparasite committed tyrannical acts that were brutal with any opposition losing their hands and legs. Eventually, the people of Leagio had enough and rebellion under the leadership of the great orator known as Jean Huttson, who was one of the richest men in the colony and was also affected by the Antiparasite through the loss of his son, who was a newspaper printer that printed articles illustrating the crimes of the Antiparasite.

      Huttson convened with the remain representatives of the Colony that opposed the Antiparasite to discuss the best course and outcome that they should reach for. Eventually, the committee filled with Leagioan representatives agreed on the decision to declare independence from the United Kingdom with the creation of a Declaration of Independence. The Colonial Government in the colony of Elithize was asked to join in the War for Independence but the government in Forecaster declined and pledged loyalty to the crown. Although, Elithize was on the side of the Uk, there were volunteers in Forecoaster that wanted a independent Elthize from the UK and joined the Leagioan Liberation Army as the Elthizic Division. The War For Leagioan Independence, which officially began October 4th, 1895, would be a long and painful struggle for the people of the newly established Commonwealth of Leagio. The turning point of the war would be at the Battle of Geaqi in the state of Diamond Heart, where the main army of the Antiparasite and UK colonial forces were decisively defeated and forced to surrender after being surrounded. By 1902, the war was won for the Commonwealth as the United Kingdom agreed to give them independence.

      After the Presidency of Jean Huttson, the nation would continue to develop itself, particular in the western portion, as more and more immigrated to the Commonwealth with the formation of new states and territories. The expansion of the Commonwealth began to show the stablity and prosperity of the new independent government. Eventually with backdoor helping of President Louie Holland, the dream of an independent Elthize came by harboring and supplying the revolutionaries in Forecaster that would bring a independent Elthize in 1937. However, by 1940, the first of the many weakness of the Constitution of 1904 began to show as the guidelines of what roles of the Chamber of Councils were in comparison to the Senate were never fully defined by the Constitution of 1904. The Senate began to take over roles that was assumed to be for the Chamber of Councilor. The issue became even more glaring by 1945, when the Senate passed a bill that limited the roles of the Chamber of Councilors to the point that it was only added space within the National Congress. The debacle almost resulted a civil war with the Commonwealth until the President at the time, Leo Holland intervened between the two houses.
      President Holland convinced the Senate to repeal the law limiting the powers and abilities of the Chamber of Councilors. In addition, he was able to settle an agreement on what the roles were between each House of the National Congress. The two houses of the National Congress followed with the agreement until it was ultimately declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court of Leagio in 1987. This move by the Supreme Court would reignite the tensions between the two houses of the National Congress, became one of the main reasons for a reform within the Leagioan Government.

      Another conflicting issue with the Constitution was the hardline guidelines that Territories need to follow in order to have their status to be upgraded into a State within the Commonwealth. The guidelines were vague, particularly the part that required that territorial governments be not oppressive to its people. This issue mainly affected the Eastern Territories, which have been under Leagioan administration since the founding of the Commonwealth. Territories do no have as much representation within the Congress than a state does, which is an issue as it hard for them to be prominent within Leagioan politics. The problems from this have brought in concerns within Tulion that the Eastern territories might try to secceede from the Commonwealth.
      There are other issues with the Consitution and particularly the popular voting system that elects the President of the Commonwealth because it was not meant for elections that would have more than three candidates. The smallest percentage that a winning Candidate received within the Presidential election was 28% in 1973. There are currently calls to reform the Presidential election towhere there is the second round of elections for the Presidential race with the highest-ranking candidates placed in the ballots.

      When the economic crash that occurred in April of 2020 happened, the President of the Commonwealth with the support of the Governor-General called for the National Congress to vote on a resolution where the Commonwealth should join the European Union as a way to help lessen the economic crisis that the nation was facing. However, in order for the resolution of such importance to be passed, an approval of 2/3's Majority was needed for it to be implmented. Although, the Civil Populists were the leading party of the National Congress in terms of seats in the leagislative branch, they did not have a 2/3's majority of all the seats in both houses. This issue resulted in the Civil Populist Party agreeing to negiotate with the other political parties within the National Congress. Reform would come through the Constitution of 2020, but it would be amended again 2022 to be more Parliamentary for Leagio.
