President Im vetoes anti-austerity bill.

President Im has vetoed a bill which would see tax cuts across the board, effectively ending the austerity measures placed by the Im administration.

President Im has criticised the tax cuts as being 'fiscally wreckless and unsuitable for economic sustainability and stability'. President Im has strongly defended the austerity measures and has espoused the concept of collective sacrifice, in which every income earner lose their special privileges in the name of progress. The austerity measures, consisting of tax increases, freezes in wages and reduced child tax credits, will be used to close a deficit and pay off the natonal debt which has sky rocketed during the military junta rule.

This is 2nd time this year in which President Im has vetoed a tax cut bill.

He has called up Prime Minster Lin to accept the measures without concessions or conditions.

Prime Minister Lin has told the media that he would continue to champion the tax cuts during his 2012 Presidential campaign. Mr Lin has vowed to enact the tax cuts within 2 months of taking office.

Labour Party activists protest outside former Conservative leader's home over fascism comment.

Activists from the Labour Party gather outside the home of former Conservative Party Stephen T. Ding after making a highly controversial statement about President Im.

Mr Ding was giving an interview to Conservative leaning newspaper Tsing Ren Daily, he has sharply denounced President Im's policies as 'being fascism of the worst kind.' and repeatedly questioned the patriotism of the President.

Quote:
 
'I and the Bai Lungese public must ascertain whether the President [Im] is loyal to his nation. This nation was founded on principles in that government should not use such appropriations to help the people of Bai Lung. This simply creates a situation in which the government takes over the paternal care on the Bai Lung people and hence undermines the great integrity and sturdiness character of our country. I simply summon up President's polices as being fascism of the worst kind, a kind of fascism that has a face on it. Is he with the people of Bai Lung or is he with the oligarchs?'

-Stephen T. Ding


Labour party activists have vowed to remain outside of Mr Ding's house until he issues an apology for his highly inflammatory remarks. So far, Mr Ding's spokesman has stated that Mr Ding's controversial statements about President Im will remain the same.

Former Conservative leader's home partially apologises for controversial comment, stands by original point.

Former Conservative leader Stephen T. Ding has partially apologised for likening President Im's policies on the country to that of fascism.

Speaking outside hiis northern Pyongjing home before 200 reporters, Mr Ding has acknowledged that his use of the word 'fascism' to describe the economic and social policies of President Im was going too far by his standards. He has apologised for his usage of the word fascism and has condemned the ideology which has taken an estimated 60 million lives during World War II.

Mr Ding has however, stands by his outspoken criticisms of President Im, citing his political positions as being too 'far-left' and being 'out of touch with the vast majority of the Bai Lungese people'.

Mr Ding has yet to decide whether to run for the Presidency or to reluctantly endorse the front runner Prime Minister Lin.

House Marxist under fire after giving threatening message to former Conservative leader.

A member of the Marxist has come under fire from fellow members of the assembly after he called for the 'public hanging' of former Conservative leader Stephen T. Ding.

Joseph Shiu Kai Byong, 49, has launched a vociferous tirade against Mr Ding after he compared President Im's social and economic policies to that of fascism. Mr Ding has since retracted parts of his statement but stand by his core arguement in that President Im's policies are simply out of touch with the Bai Lungese public.

Shortly after the apology, Mr Shui posted on social network site ThrushXpress, calling for the hanging of the former Conservative leader.

Quote:
 
I may not necessarily agree with President Im all the time but this reactionary piece of work [Stephen T.] Ding has to be hung from a sequoia tree for his inflammatory views. He is a traitor to Bai Lung.


Various groups from the Conservative Party to the Labour Party have called for Mr Shui to step down. BLCTV News has invited Mr Shui for an interview but to date has not responded to our offer.

House Marxist claims anti-Ding online post is taken out of context.

Radical Marxist lawmaker Joseph Shui Kai Byong has repeatedly told the media that he would not resign as member of the assembly after coming under fire for posting online a threatening message calling for former Conservative party leader Stephen T. Ding to be hung from a tree.

Speaking outside the Marxist Party HQ, Mr Shui has maintained that his online comments have been taken out of context by the 'Conservative funded media', and that his comments posted on social networking site ThrushXpress was referring to the policies of Mr Ding to be hung from a tree, not the man himself.

Mr Ding has reacted angrily to the post, calling for Mr Shui to step down or face arrest by police for threatening a fellow lawmaker.

20 people arrested in anti-austerity protests.

20 people have been arrested near the presidential office building just days after President Im has approved an austerity program which would see wage decreases, tax increases and cuts to public expenditure.

Many of the protestors waved placards denouncing Im as being 'authoritarian' and being a 'dictator'.

At least 3 people have been injured after brief clashes with the police. A police horse has also been injured.

Li: Tax the rich only, not the poor.

Byshee-Morrison Corporation head and Bai Lung's richest billionaire Li Jia-Cheng has called for the austerity measures to end for most income earners bar the most richest earners.

The 83 year old has weighed into the on-going controversial austerity measures which consists of across the board tax hikes, lower wages, cuts to public expenditures and increased hours. Mr Li has publicly condemned the austerity package approved by President Im, claiming it does not aid the economy. In addition, he has called for tax cuts made to the working and middle classes instead while preserving most of the public expenditure.

Quote:
 
"I find it shocking beyond belief that our president is punishing the average Joe for something they had no control over. I strongly believe that this austerity package does nothing to boost our economy. It infact undermines the economy. Please Mr President, reverse most of the provision and provide tax cuts to the working and middle class and give them the economy to spend that extra cash with confidence."

-Li Jia-Cheng


Anti-austerity protests held outside the Presidential office building continues into it's 4th day in which 11 people has been arrested by police.

Prime Minister Lin leads all opponents in Presidential elections; ties with incumbent.

Prime Minster and likely Conservative Presidential candidate Frederic Lin continues to enjoy huge leads against all opponents in the 2012 Presidential elections according to the latest BLCTV News polls but has a draw if he faces incumbent President Im.

Mr Lin has a 45 point advantage against a generic Labour candidate, has a 33 point lead against former PM Li An Ying, a 37 point lead against Secretary of State Zhou Min Lang and is statistically tied with President Im.

3 months ago, President Im would have a 4 point lead over Lin but his austerity package has proven to be hugely unpopular with the public and has ruined any future political comebacks for President Im. When asked if they favoured the measures, 22% viewed the measures favourably while 77% viewed it unfavourably.

Assembly to hold vote on proposed sixth amendment to Bai Lung's constitution.

The Bai Lungese Assembly is due to hold a vote whether or not to approve a sixth amendment to the Bai Lungese constitution.

A final draft to the amendment is the largest shake-up on the Presidential elections. Key provisions made to the Bai Lungese constitution includes increasing the term of the Presidential to 5, up from 4; and moving the date from October 25th to 1st July. Life time term limits imposed on incumbents would remain unchanged. It also changes the title for a member of the Lower House from Member of Parliament to Member of Assembly House or MAH.

It is widely expected that the bill will find bipartisan support in both chambers of the Assembly.

Lower House passes proposed sixth amendment.

The Lower House has overwhelmingly passed a proposed sixth amendment to the Bai Lungese Constitution.

The proposed amendment would radically changes on how the Presidential election is conducted. Key changes include increasing the years in a Presidential term to 5, up from 4 and and moving the date from October 25th to 1st July.

Almost all parties voted in favour of the amendment. The Marxist Party expressed vocal opposition to the bill, pointing out the bill does nothing to remove term limits for all incumbents. Releasing a short statement, leader Sun Ju-Bai states that term limits would limit the prerogative of the voters.

The amendment will be sent to the Upper Senate for voting.

Marxist lawmakers fillibuster amendment to Bai Lungese constiution, leader and whip ejected from Senate.

Marxist Party Senators have fillibustered an amendment to the Bai Lungese constitution which would increase the number of years served by the President per term to 5 years and moves forward the date of the Presidential election from 25th October to 1st July.

Each of the 11 Marxist Senators took 30 minutes a piece, reading quote's from various books including Quotations From Mao Tse-Tung and Quotations from Chen Jong Sun, both Communist icons amongst followers of the Marixst party, as well as reading letters from constituents. The most vocal critics of the amendment came from Senate Marxist Leader Chen Dong Gun and whip Wang Tse-Bai who felt the term limit imposed on the President was an assault on the voters. Since starting the fillibuster at 11:00 AM, they both proposed an alternative amendment abolishing all term limits and renaming the Assembly as the Central People's Bank.

At around 7:00 PM, Mr Chen and Mr Wang were ejected from the Senate floor after they decried President Im and Prime Minister Lin as being in bed with each other and for being fascists. It is the 2nd time this month in which the two outspoken Senators were removed from the Senator for misconduct.

The sixth amendment will have a vote in the Senate tomorrow.

Senate censures and suspends 11 radical lawmakers over publicity stunt.

11 radical lawmakers in the Upper Senate have been formally censured by the President of the Senate over a publicity stunt.

The 11 Senators, all whom belong to the left-wing Marxist Party, have begun protesting against a vote to approve the 6th amendment to the Bai Lungese constitution. They have claimed that the Constitution prohibits the President from serving more than two terms. Since the amendment debate began, the Marixsts put forward alternative amendments such as removing all term limits and re-instating the Central People's Bank. These proposals have failed to pass in either chambers.

At the beginning of the debate, the 11 Senators stormed into the Senate floor and began circling around the room, as well as stealing the Ceremonial mace, waving it before the 89 other Senators.

After the President of Senator repeatedly ordered them to replace the mace and apologise for their misconduct. Within 1 minute after issuing the warning, security was brought in to reclaim the mace before resuming normal debates.

The Senate vote 89-11 in favour of Censuring and suspending the 11 Marxist Senators for 1 week, as well as docking their pay by 1 week.

The 6th amendment vote has been suspended to Friday.

Senate unanimously passes 6th amendment.

The Upper Senate has unaminously approved a sixth amendment to the Bai Lungese Constitution which would increase the term limits of the President, shift forward the date of the general election and re-naming lower house lawmakers as Member of the Lower Assembly or MLA.

The vote tally was given as 89-0 with 11 abstentions, all of them being Marxist Senators as a result of their suspension yesterday due to a publicity stunt involving the Marxist Senate leader stealing the ceremonial mace.

President Im is expected to sign the bill which would enshrine the amendment into the Constitution.

-Increases the President's term from 4 years to 5 years. The absolute two term limit continues to apply.
-The election will be moved forward from October 25th to July 1st.
-Election of the Presidential election will be based on electoral college votes instead of the popular vote.
-These changes take effect in the next upcoming Presidential election.

Man arrested after pranking President Im.

A practical joker has been arrested by police after he came within several feet of President Im.

The prankster identified as 22 year old Farrell Wu ran past the President half naked while juggling flaming torches before them. Neither President nor the Kelssek envoy Dianne Roddam whom he was speaking to were harmed by the stunt although Ms Roddam has claimed that she was 'highly amused'.

Police will make a decision whether to charge Mr Wu or to release him with a formal warning.

Radical Pressure Group members arrested at Presidential Office Building.

20 members of the radical, Marxist affiliated pressure group Democracy and Justice Group have been arrested by police after they attempted to make an unathorisied entry to the Presidential Office Building.

The group, who have strong links to the left-wing Marxist Party, have campaigned for the abolition of all term limits, a return to the Central People's Bank and the reversal of income equality, which they claim the rich-poor income gap is increasing under a President Im administration.

According to a police spokesman, a sizable number of protestors gathered outside the official residence of the President but 20 people were caught climbing up the gates. None of the intruders have reached any further than the main entrance of the palace. All of the intruders were arrested.

Police have stated that President Im was not at the scene when the protestors gathered outside the building.

Excerpt from opinion programme Across the Aisile:

Stephen T. Ding, former leader of the Conserivative Party (On why he will not moderate some of his most conservative positions): 'The reason I do not comprimise with my core beliefs is simply because it would not become my core beliefs and it would turn into something contrary to that. Comprimising is basically being a loser without the loser status...'

Conservative Councillor steps down after posting anti-Kandorith slurs online.

A Western Pyongjing councillor has resigned from his post after he posted a series of racially offensive posts online which were directed towards the people of Kandorith.

Confusing and conflating the Kandorith people with that of the Japanese, Conservative Councillor Albert Shing De Myong posted several sarcastic messages about former Kandorese Emperor Aisho through social networking site ThrushXpress. Some of them include:

Quote:
 
'Little Kobe Emperor is surely going to get tremors from his food poisoning...or maybe an earthquake!'


Quote:
 
'King Aisho might wanna layoff the raw sushi if he wants to avoid another episode of poisoning.'


Quote:
 
'JAPS 0, BAI LUNG 1. THAT IS PURE RETRIBUTION FOR WHAT YOU JAPANESE THROWBACKS DID TO MY BEAUTIFUL, SOVEREIGN BAI LUNG. YOU INVADE MY COUNTRY SO WE POISON YOUR MORONIC, OPPRESSIVE KING.

BON APPETITE, AISHO!
'


It was the above post which caused the most outrage with several prominent MLAs and Senators calling for his resignation, including Conservative Prime Minister Frederic Lin, who issued a short statement calling for Mr Shing's resignation.

Mr Shing formally resigned a councillor at 1:20 PM today. Mr Shing, 38, however, has refused to apologise for the racially offensive comments, stating that his comments were merely a joke, as well as a social commentary on general ignorance and not an endorsement of racism by himself.

Excerpt from opinion programme Across the Aisle:

President Im (On defending his austerity measures): 'The right-wing military junta have blew a massive hole in the budget and for this reason, we need to quickly address this problem or we will be broke faster because we would rely on heavy borrowing. Cutting taxes does not bring in revenue, closing loop holes will end the problem of tax avoidance.'
