Labour Party to hold Presidential Primary election on 25th March.

The Labour Party will hold it's Presidential Primary election on the 25th March to select the best candidate for the role of President of Bai Lung.

The backbencher Berty He is the clear favourite to clinch the nomination with most polls predicting that he will receive 35% of the vote.

If selected, Mr He will likely compete alongside C.Y Liang and Prime Minister Lin for the top job.

The Conservative Presidential Primary will be held on the 19th. Mr Lin is widely expected to gain 65% of the Conservative vote despite being riddled with scandals involving building an illegal-attic in his wife's house.

Prime Minister Lin wins Conservative Presidential Primaries by an overwhelming margin.

Prime Minister Lin has clinched the Conservative Presidential ticket by an overwhelming margin despite recent controversies surrounding his illegally built attic.

The Prime Minister won the Conservative Presidential Primaries by a massive 92% with the remaining 8% of Conservative voters going for token candidates.

Speaking at the Conservative HQ, Mr Lin thanked voters for picking him as being the best candidate who can defeat Independent Conservative Presidential Candidate C.Y Liang.

Quote:
 
'The Conservative voters have clearly spoken that in spite of my recent tumultuous times surrounding my private life, they have decided to reject the media's false claims that they are likely to vote for somebody else and instead, casted their votes for me. They want a candidate who can stand up for the middle class and stand up against the powerful political machine of C.Y Liang. They want a candidate who can deliver on real promises and not the fake sugar coated fairy tale promises of Mr Liang. I thank the Conservative voters for making this wise decision, thank you!'


The Lin Political Action Committee are expected to raise over BL$100 million during the race.

Conservative backbencher underfire after proposing anti-overseas Bai Lungese law.

A backbencher is under heavy criticisms after he proposed a law which will ban all pregnant mothers from giving birth in any country other than Bai Lung itself.

Chen Lai-Cao from New Zhejiang district proposed Protect Bai Lungese Sovereignty Act 2012 which would require any country who has bilateral trade agreements with to ensure all delivery of Bai Lungese babies must be done in Bai Lung or face heavy tarrifs.

Mr Chen believed that any Bai Lungese born outside would not speak Mandarin and would therefore be detrimental to the image of Bai Lung.

Quote:
 
'This is a piece of legislation that will protect the national character of Bai Lung and her integrity. By the end of this year, there will be no Bai Lungese born outside of this country and will do what ever we can to ensure every Bai Lungese person speaks Mandarin and follows the Bai Lungese way not the Dannistrian way, not the Kelssek way and not the Dovakhan way. '


The bill was heavily criticised from both sides of the spectrum, including Prime Minister Lin, who is also a Conservative. Mr Lin has referred to the proposal as being 'unworkable and impractical'. Some of the most vocal criticisms came from Marxist leader Johnnie Ting, who branded the law as 'racist towards Dannistaan'.

Anti-overseas Bai Lungese lawmaker will not back down proposals.

Chen Lai-Cao, the Conservative backbencher from New Zhejiang district as well as self-described supporter of Stephen T. Ding, has refused to back or compromise with his highly controversial proposed law entitled the Protect Bai Lungese Sovereignty Act 2012 which would require any country that has bilateral trade agreements with Bai Lung must ensure that all delivery of Bai Lungese babies must be done in Bai Lung or face a variety of penalties including tariffs imposed on that country.

Speaking to the media, Mr Chen showed a graph that the more further overseas is born, the more likely they would not speak Mandarin. Critics from the left claim that his graph is merely fictitious.

There has been calls for Prime Minister Lin to expel the controversial backbencher from the party including a vocal request from Marxist Party leader Jonnie Ting.

Bai Lungese Senate Subcommittee on Immigration, Refugees and Border Security unanimously votes for resolution disapproving anti-overseas Bai Lungese law .

The Senate subcommittee has unanimously disapproved a highly controversial proposal which would ban any Bai Lungese born overseas. Anyone born outside of Bai Lung would allow the state to impose heavy tariffs on any nation they currently have bilateral relations with.

The Protect Bai Lungese Sovereignty Act 2012 was widely criticised by both major parties. The Labour and Marxist Party labelled the proposal as racist while the Conservatives, including Prime Minister Lin, questioned the practicallity of the proposal.

Chen Lai-Cao, the Conservative MLA backbencher who proposed the law, has hit back at critics, labelling them 'leftist elites'.

Dannistrian darts champion Wei-Sun dies in Port Ou'rad home.

Legendary darts champion Jacky 'The Lightning' Wei-Sun has died at the age of 61 years after battling lung cancer.

Wei's wife Jacqueline Liang called 999 when she noticed her husband collapsed by his bedside. Police were then summoned to Mr Wei's house based on that emergency call but has since confirmed that his death is not due to foul play.

Jacky Wei, a Dannistrian citizen of Bai Lungese origin, was not originally aspired to be a darts player. In fact, during his time as a youth, he wanted to be a footballer but a severe injury at his local football youth club put an end to his future footballing career to an abrupt halt. Wei was given his first dartboard at the age of 16 and it was there when he won a series of amateur darts championships for the next 12 years.

Turning professional in 1979, he made his debut in the prestigious Dannistrian Grand Prix Championship where he fought against the likes of Johnny Tuc'hkaer-Ward, Xavier Stahrtenberg and Harry Hoh'we. He lost in the semi-finals to Hoh'we but avenged his loss when he won the 1980 championship against Hoh'we. He was given the nickname 'The Lightning', largely in part of his fast and attacking style. He would defend his title 2 more times before the event was suspended during the Dannistrian civil war.

Spending 6 years in native Bai Lung, Wei took a job as a postman. He would return to Dannistaan in 1988 when the championship was held again. He would win the title 8 more times consecutively until 1995 when he abruptly declared that he would play no more dart tournaments.

Wei would spend the last 17 years of his life hiding in seclusion, turning down every media interview. According to his wife, he thinks that 'his past is over and needs no further discussion.'

A heavy smoker by nature, he was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2009. He would often smoke dispite warnings by doctors that his lungs would be 100% damaged within 2 years.

Since the announcement of Wei's death, a large wave of tributes from past and present dart players including a tweet from Stahrtenberg.

Wei's 11 title win would remain unsurpassed until Ronnie 'Game Changer' McTailor, won his 12th title in the 09 championship. Mr McTailor has won the Championship nearly continously since 96 with the sole exception of the 2001 and the 2008 championship in which Marcel Goldenfinckle and Raymond Le Carre won it respectively. McTailor has won the championship 14 times to date.

A private funeral will be held on the 4th April.

Conservative back-bencher renounces membership 10 minutes before CNC makes crucial vote on his future; Endorses C.Y Liang.

Controversial Conservative back-bencher Chen Lai-Cao has announced that he would leave his party and would continue being an MLA as an Independent Conservative.

The resignation comes 10 minutes before senior members of the Conservative National Committee were to make a decision whether to withdraw the whip from Mr Chen because of his highly divisive proposal to ban all mothers from giving birth in countries other than Bai Lung.

The Protect Bai Lungese Sovereignty Act 2012 was criticised by the left and right for being blatantly racist, as well as questioning the practicality of the law.

Releasing a short statement, Mr Chen explains his reasons why he resigned as a Tory MLA.

Quote:
 
'My party, led under Prime Minister Lin, is not really much any different than the party that is controlling the Presidential Office Building. The rhetoric is different but the actual policies enacted are exactly the same. I find myself at odds with the Party that is supposed to conserve Bai Lungese tradition and instead, they simply adopted the far-left policies of President Im. Spend more, tax more, borrow more...'


He also used his resignation speech to endorse C.Y Liang, the independent Conservative candidate for president.

Quote:
 
'Mr Liang is a geniune Conservative. He fights for Conservative principles with a capital C unlike the Prime Minister who is a stooge for the liberal elite. He is for limited government, individual freedom and liberty. I give him my stamp of approval.'

-Chen Lai-Cao


The office of the Prime Minister has declined to comment on Mr Chen's resignation.

President Im vetoes fifth anti-austerity budget proposal.

President Im has vetoed a budget which would immediately end all austerity measures imposed by him since October 2011.

The budget, which was passed by the Conservative controlled Upper and Lower chambers, consisted of across the board tax cuts, deeper cuts to all public services and the elmination of the Mansion tax and Corporate tax. The bill was voted by a party line vote with all Conservatives voting for the bill and the Labour party voting against it. The other parties abstained from the highly controversial proposals.

Once it landed on President Im's desk, he immediately vetoed the bill, criticising the Conservatives for their insensitivity towards the working and middle class.

Quote:
 
'I find this piece of proposal to be unduly necessary as only exposes the Conservative true colours which is to cut taxes to those who don't need it and to foot the bill on the working Bai Lungese.'

-President Im


A spokesman to Prime Minister Lin has announced that they will attempt to override President Im's veto on Monday.

BREAKING NEWS: President Im dies after a fatal stroke.

President Im has died at the Pyongjing Central Hospital after suffering from a major stroke.

A spokesman to the late President has confirmed that the President was typing up a telegram to Prime Minister Lin before he complained of numb legs before collapsing backwards.

Quote:
 
'We are sad to announce that President Im had passed away peacefully while he was serving his duty as an outstanding public servant.  He will be gratefully missed and we wish his successor the best in finishing the work that the President had started.'


Medics were called to the scene and he was taken to the Pyongjing Central Hospital but he died at the scene before any treatment commenced.

Leaders from Kelssek, Dovakhan and Dannistaan have all expressed their condolences to Selina Im, the wife of the President for over 30 years.

Prime Minister Lin had personally visited the house of Mrs Im to comfort her over the loss of her husband.

By contrast, the newly founded self-declared resistance group, the Kashgar Resistance League had openly celebrated the death of the President, firing AK-47s in the air and looting Bai Lungese owned businesses in the mainland.

Quote:
 
'This is great day! The ring leader of the foreign occupation of our lands is gone and we will expect the foreign guests to leave exactly in the same manner. Kashgarstan will be re-established for the Kashgar people!'

-Supoorimat Barkediev


It is widely expect that the Secretary of State, Zhou Minlang, will assume the role as President. The Secretary of State is number 2nd in the order of precedence.

A state funeral for the President will be held on the 8th April.[/s]

5 things we didn't know this week.

1. Dannistrian Darts Champion Jacky Wei-Sun smoked 10 packets of cigarettes a day since the age of 15 and 20 pints of lager a day since 12.
2. Ironically, the hoax that claimed President Im had died contains some element of truth to it. Im Jia-Men, 3rd cousin to the President, had died on the 1st April.
3. The number of drug addicts in Bai Lung is equivalent to the entire population of the UK.
4. Bai Lung fainting goats do not faint. They remain stiff frozen when provoked.
5. The harmonica is illegal to play in the city of Choi.

C.Y Liang visit Chiang Ding-Shui Infirmary: Universal healthcare will remain.

Independent Conservative President C.Y Liang has visited the Chiang Ding-Shui Infirmary in Port Sung, re-affirming that he is 100% committed to keeping a single-payer healthcare system.

Mr Liang has blasted President Im for increasing the number of managers since the Public Healthcare Act 2009 was passed. Mr Liang has called for an increase in doctors and nurses over managers.

Mr Liang has also lambasted Prime Minister Lin's proposals to increase more private involvement in the health sector. He has labelled the plans as 'unworkable'.

Former Conservative leader Stephen T. Ding had recently retracted his support of Mr Liang over his support of 'socialised medicine'. He has called for a repeal of the healthcare act and instead offer tax credits of up to BL$2500 to individuals and $6000 to married couples.

Bai Lung gas company ordered to pay $550 million in taxes.

The gas company New Whampoa Gas Works Inc was ordered by the High Court to pay a total of $550 million in unpaid taxes after it was emerged that the company was evading taxes during the tax years 2008-2010.

The fixed penalty only applies to the taxes in which the company had illegally avoided. The company had also allegedly use legal loopholes to reduce their Corporate taxes at a low rate of 10%.

President Terry Kim Sha-Zhi has announced his intentions to appeal against the decision made by the High Court. He claims that the company is actually based in East Dannistaan and that the tax jurisdiction does not apply to companies headquartered outside of Bai Lung.

Excerpt from Opinion Programme Across the Aisle

Jonnie Ting, Marxist Party Leader (On his support for a Chen Jong Sun national holiday): 'I am thoroughly disappointed that my colleagues from across the aisle have chosen not to join me and the rest of the Marxist Party to celebrate the life of a truly remarkable and bold leader that is the Great Eternal Leader Chen Jong Sun.

The propaganda spreaded by the two major parties are simply baseless accusations. For instance, they claimed that Chen deliberately starved his own citizens. That is utter hogwash! What really happened is that the dissidents starved themselves to death despite the adequate food rations that they received.

Their death was of their own fault and it has nothing to do with the Communist state forcing them to die of starvation.

This man spent his entire life elevating people from the poverty trap, not exploit them. Income for the poorest went up by average 33% each decade. Since Im took power, income plummeted by over 25% in just 4 years!

Now you ask yourselves, who is the bigger dictator: Im or Chen? That's why it is time to pass the National Holidays of Chen's birthday and his passing right now, starting with local governments.'
