Breaking News: Terrorist bombing in Kaldrbuth!

It has recently been reported that a major terrorist attacks has been committed in the Kaldrbuthian town of Ishindale. Mainly targeting government buildings and religious institutions, with the local Ulvriktru temple having been completely destroyed during the attack. The Kaldrbuthian government has estimated that over 200 have died from the bombings, with around 50 being children as a result of the bombing of the temple, with far more expected to be injured. Dozens of attempted terrorist attacks were tried at several major cities in Kaldrbuth, including the Federation and Norgsveltian embassies in Hrafnheimr, but was stopped by the Kaldrbuthian Intelligence Service (KIS).

The attacks were the largest in Concordian history since the end of the Cold War, with the perpetrators of the attacks being confirmed to be members of the Kaldrbuthian Republican Front (KRF). The KRF, having previously been a major terrorist organization during the Cold War, focused on the goal of overthrowing the Kaldrbuthian monarchy and nobility. With most of its members proclaiming to have Einarist and Neo-Hirdist sympathies. It is yet unknown how the KRF got the military grade explosives needed for both the attack itself and the attempted ones. With the KIS having estimated that the amount gathered must have been over 17,000 kg worth of explosives, with a huge majority not having been used. It is rumored that the KRF has been planning on creating mass panics to then start a full civil war. The KIS still investigating matter.

The bombings been condemned from across the world with many NCEF nations pushing for the KRF to be recognised as a terrorist organization globally. Prime Minister Wilhelm Kirkeland has stated his condolences to the victims of the attack and has assured the Kaldrbuthian government that the NCIS will help the KIS investigation on KRF activity. Kirkeland having stated on Pigeon that: “We shall never let destructive ideologies win, together the NCEF stands united behind Kaldrbuth. We mourn with you”. Similar statements has been made by the Atlalandian government with their prime minister, Nikkolas Bjarnvikdal having stated that “Ulvrikia shall stand united against extremism of all types, we shall help in any manner we can”.

His majesty, Olav I, has stated his deepest condolences to the victims of the Ishindale Bombings. Stating that he and his wife will be visiting Kaldrbuth to show their support to the Kaldrbuthian people and monarchy. The king has announced during a speech in front of the Ulvriktru Temple in Osfjord that a minute of prayers should be held for those who died at temples. Proclaiming that attacks on places of faith are heinous actions that must be condemned in the harshest possible way.

Queen Astrid XI has announced that she and her government will ensure everything in its power to crush the KRF and has put it forth to the North Concordian Parliament of putting an NCEF wide arrest order against all members of the KRF. Crown Princess Astrid has stated that she and the Arch-Gothir, Gaëtane III, will be visiting the city of Ishindale to pay their respect to the victims.

The Arch-Gothir of the Hjørdist branch of Gustafistic Ulvriktru released a statement about the terrorist attack. “It is a tragedy the assault on any innocent life, however in these times we must look to our Allmother for guidance for her wisdom. In tragedy, I often seek a story of the woman and dragon of Zeak. The dragon seeked to destroy, to burn all that the woman held dear, in return the woman returned with kindness and a spear. If the cowards do not accept the kindness, then the spear is the only option left.”

The Federal Prime Minister of the Federation, Jeanne Pierre released a statement of her own alongside the Arch-Gothir. “Kaldrbuth are our cultural kin, when they bleed it wounds our heart. When they are struck, we are struck as such. We will demand the arrests and dismantling of the KRF. If the monsters refuse, then we will stand along Kaldrbuth in their resolve to destroy the terrorists. I ask for all citizens of the Federation to hold a moment of silence for the lives lost to this attack.”

Breaking News: Rogue East Atlalandian general arrested for supplying the KRF

Shocking news has come out from Veridal as a general in the East Atlandian Army was arrested this morning for having allegedly supplied the KRF with military grade weapons. Weapons which were used by the KRF at the Ishindale Bombings, and during small shootouts between KRF members and the Kaldrbuthian police last weekend. According to the East Atlandian government they had no knowledge about the supplies and had apologized to the Kaldrbuthian government for this event. Darit Hevner, the general in question, has denied any involvement in the terrorist attack. It is yet unknown how much involvement she had with supplying the KRF but according to the joint reports from the NCIS, the KIS and Lapérousian Federal Intelligence Service (LFIS) the general had met once with some leading members of the KRF.

Despite apologies being given from both the prime minister and president of East Atlalandr it has not warmed up the frosty relationship between Kaldrbuth and East Atlalandr. With Astrid XI having lambasted the East Atlalandian government during press conferences and stated the remilitarisation of the border is being discussed as a response to “East Atlandian incompetence”. The approval rating of Sanna Vakrela’s government is at an all time low as it deals with this recent scandal, which is not made better with the opposition spreading conspiracy theories about the arrest. With the Atlalandian Einarist Party (AEP) having accused the government of “purging the military”. Despite the low approval ratings, recent opinion polls have shown that the opposition parties in the National Bloc, a coalition made up of Våldist and Nationalist parties, has not grown much larger. With the AEP and Atlalandian National Republicans (ANR) having 46% support together at the most recent poll, only 0,5% increase since one made last month.

With the aging health of President Ørn Gerjikdal it has been a matter of much debate if he will continue to run for the East Atlalandian Presidential election in September. Despite concerns from his family members who have urged him to not run, the 94 year old president has stated in several interviews he will. Having said that “If I have the strength to walk, I have the strength to run”. Mister Gerjikdal having been the president of East Atlalandr ever since he reformed the country into a parliamentary republic in September of 2001, ending the three decade long one party rule of the Atlalandian Einarist Party. He has become well loved in East Atlalandr for it and is highly expected to win with an overwhelming victory at the election for the 5th time in a row. It has become jokingly said that an East Atlalandian Presidential election is just an overly expensive approval rating poll. With no one expecting the National Bloc’s presidential candidate of Erik Tårnet to have any chance of winning, with the man already being highly controversial for his hyper nationalistic views.

During the press conference the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bjørn Varg, has stated that the government is ruling out military intervention at the current moment but that Norgsveldet will work to establish joint NCEF sanctions against the aggressors. Proclaiming that “we will work with our allies and partners for a joint response to this invasion, which will include the prospects of military aid to be delivered to Sayyed”. The minister has also urged all Norgsveltian citizens to evacuate Askaraban, Sayyed and Crimpateia through contacting the Norgsveltian embassies. Warning that any attack of said embassies will result with a harsh response.

When asked about citizens volunteering to join the conflict in the defense of Sayyed the minister of foreign affairs has stated they will urge citizens to not join. But did proclaim that there will be no legal consequence of doing so. With what was seen as an effective approval to volunteer it became known to the NNN that thousands of army veterans from not just Norgsveldet but also Atlalandr and Kaldrbuth that they seeked to volunteer into the Comlathas Foreign Legion. With them having organized themselves as the Ravnens Frihetbrigade (Raven’s Freedom Brigade).

Breaking News: Deputy-leader of the Fatherland Party adopts a kemonomimi child

It has been reported to the NNN this morning that Rosia Sannadatur, Deputy-leader of the Fatherland Party, has adopted a kemonomimi child from the local Akuan orphanage within Nyveldet. Causing surprise within local communities in Nyveldet, with Miss Sannadatur having become well known for her numerous anti-Akuanist comments in the past. Which has included comments speaking against the intermixing of species and rhetoric against the Ulvriktru Democrats for perceived policies for special treatment of Akuanists. When asked about the adoption Miss Sannadatur has simply stated that she is “looking out for our fellow Norgsveltians.” She has also stated her apologies on a viral video on Pigeon for her previous statement against kemonomimi and Akuanists within Norgsveldet, blaming the stress caused by fall out of her marriage with her ex-husband, Torstein Jensen, for her previous comments. In the same video she has stated she will take a week break from her job as deputy leader of the Fatherland Party to welcome her new son and help him adjust to his new life.

This all having been followed by previous comments the month before to urge her son, the Administer President of Nyveldet, to follow the High Court ruling against the banning of gay marriage in Nyveldet. Proclaiming that Norgsveldet must avoid another Constitutional Crisis. With the Nyveldian Council’s decision to ban gay marriage having been called unconstitutional by the High Court, having led large legal dispute towards the Nyveldian government which has had to deal with large public protests by pro-lgbtq and farmer organisations. With the latter being caused by a decrease of Valkyr imports of Nyveldian food products.

Miss Sannadatur’s decision to criticize the Nyveldian Council banning of gay marriage and her recent adoption of an kemonomimi child has left supporters and openents baffled, with many questioning her reasoning to abandon her previous political positions relating to both matters. The NNN has tried to reach out to the Nyveldian Administrative President, Ragnar Torsteinson, for a comment about his mother’s criticism but we got no response.

Eli Enitedatur, MP for the People’s Workers Party questioned the authenticity of Miss Sannadatur’s ability and commitment to caring for the child. Releasing a statement on Pigeon, “Are we sure we can trust her with the welfare of a child from the very same people she repeatedly insulted, offended and attacked? Should we not be concerned that she might lash out at the child for her ex-husband actions? She is 104 years old, is she really sure she even be around long enough to take her off the kid? Even more so, shouldn’t we be worried that she might forcely convert him to a religion foreign to him? Akuanists should only be raised by Akuanists, and left to their own means rather than this possible force attempt to convert them.”

Bergiz Ny’kken, leader of the Akuan Interest Party sent a message of their own on the matter as well a reply to Mrs. Enitedatur post on Pigeon. “I would like to congratulate Miss. Sannadatur on bringing a new home to a child, I am confident she has read up on Akuan customs for upbringing and I trust in the orphanage as well the regional government agencies to assure that the home is a warm and welcoming one. We all should be welcoming Miss Sannadatur’s change of heart, as in the stories. ‘Hearts are as fickle as the ocean’s tides, but a strong crew can make their way in the most radical of storms.’ May the spirits continue to guide Miss Sannadatur’s heart and protect the child.” He replied to Miss Enitedatur’s pigeon post about the matter. “This is a deeply troubling comment, especially the implication that Akuanists should have to be segregated and the distrust of our proud institutions to assure the safety of the boy.”

Breaking News: Abortion clinic in the Akuan District of Osjford destroyed;

The Center for Women’s Health and Pregnancy facility in the Akuan District was discovered to be heavily damaged earlier this morning. With the HVAC located on the roof of the building being smashed up and filled with fertilizer; Doors and windows being cemented or welded into place; electric, telephone and fiber cables being cut; as well the piping of sewage and water being sealed off with the valves to the building being glued to prevent turning them. Including several other important parts of the building being heavily damaged as well, but not listed here.

The abortion clinic was opened in February of this year despite being originally planned to be opened last year January, and has been a constant source of strife. With protests around the building construction forcing several delays to its construction. Then when it opened, the largest recorded protest in the district protesting against the opening of the clinic. Despite the fierce resistance to the clinic, it opened regardless in February. Too much animosity of the residents of the district.

The clinic being opened in the district was heavily debated and under much scrutiny within the city council of Osfjord. With the main debate being the purpose of the role of the Woman’s Health Clinic, and it being opened within the Akuan District. Questioning opening such a clinic would be against the Akuan Districts special protections; How much a role of abortion would take place in the woman’s health clinic and several other factors into the discussion. With almost unanimous support from the Akuan clinic being against the opening of the clinic within the district all together unless certain conditions were met by the clinic.

Top of the list of conditions being to only allow abortions in cases of threatening the life of the mother and requiring a doctor’s statement of approval from a different clinic or hospital to confirm the threat to the mother’s life. Another condition was requiring ultrasounds of the pregnancy to be shown to the mother, at the cost of the clinic. Most controversially it required the employees of the clinic to have their name open to the public, which was released to the public and printed on the local Akuan newspapers within the next day of clinic opening.

The clinic suffered from staffing issues, operating on a skeleton crew and consistent budging issues. With a rotation of Akuan protest groups being outside of the clinic during all working hours, often temporarily blocking access to the clinic for hours throughout the week. The clinic made repeated requests to have a police officer stationed at the clinic, however was only able to keep a single officer at the clinic once a week for unspecified reasons.

The staff of the clinic repeatedly aired their frustrations on Pigeon, with a clinic’s only doctor sending a post speaking about feeling of getting the cold shoulder by Akuanists almost overnight when he was hired. Citing the Akuan newspapers having printed his full name and photo as a borderline threat on his life. As well complains about having to move out of the Akuan District which he lived in for two decades for several reasons. Describing a feeling of being collectively shunned by his community and being barred from attending local events in the neighborhood.

It has been suggested by insiders of the Akuan community that the attack was motivated by circumstantial evidence of the clinic providing abortions without the doctor’s statement of the necessity of the abortion and was freely providing the service. Which became proof for the local newspapers that they were not following the conditions of the agreement, and was printed as truth on the matter. Despite the claims, the doctor of the clinic stated that due to the extreme staffing issues and general poor morale of the clinic, filing papers could be easily lost.

Despite this, the clinic was destroyed by an unknown large group of Akuanists, two hours after the clinic closed. Despite the clinic being in a busy and densely populated part of the district, no one in the neighborhood claimed to see the building being damaged nor reported it to the police. The doctor being the one to discover the doors being welded shut and the windows being glued when attempting to open the clinic the morning after.

Repairing the clinic would have cost almost as much as building the clinic in the first place. The doctor claimed, and stated the clinic will not be reopening due to the financial and hostility of the community.

The police have made arrests of three individuals who were found at the area of the crime with welding equipment. They were charged with destruction of property and were required to pay a fine of 2,000 UKR. A local business owner in the neighborhood, Magar Ny’Dahl crowdfunded paying for the fine for the three individuals and paid their bond. Despite only three people being arrested, it has been alleged that close to a dozen and a half Akuanists took part in destroying the building.

The NNN reached out to Prime Minister, Wilhelm Kirkeland, for a comment about the topic and asked if the Labour Party will push for more security and support to abortion clinics. Though Mister Kirkeland has simply stated that: “This is a matter for the Administrative President of the region to deal with, and I trust his judgment on the matter”.

When the NNN reached out to Administrative President of Stor Osfjord, Torbjørn Havret, for an statement he simply claimed it was a matter to the Mayor of Osfjord to deal with and that he is “certain that Mayor Birkdal knows what she is doing”.

Mayor Anna Birkdal has stated that she has placed this matter into the hands of the new police commissioner of Osfjord, who she has put her full faith into dealing with the matter with respect towards both pro-choice and pro-life organizations.

The police commissioner has refused to answer any questions about their position on the matter and simply states that people should respect the law.

The attack against the abortion clinic has gotten a wide array of responses on Pigeon, with important party representatives posting their reactions to the news. In which the People’s Workers Party MP, Yke Nåtveti, had condemned the attack and stated the attack to be a: “Attack on women’s health and clear disrespect towards women rights and shame for the entire nation. The police have failed as an institution and must be held responsible for a lack of security given to the clinic!”

An local Gothir within Osfjord and a notable member of the Ulvriktru Democrats, Henrik Askebein, stated on Pigeon that: “Attack of private property is illegal and must be condemned, however the decision by the clinic to go against regulations set must never be forgotten. I cannot in good conscience ignore such attitudes coming from a so-called ‘professional’ doctor”.

The Akuan Interest Party party leader, Bergiz Ny’kken released a statement on Pigeon. “The murder for hire business of the clinic cannot be ignored, they went against the community wishes and the regulations. The murder facility shouldn’t have ever been built in the first place if they couldn’t fund a full staff. The first thing doctors learn is to do no harm, however we allow such vile places to exist and keep letting doctors harm our more vulnerable people, our children. The baby murdering ‘healer’…” NNN would like to apologize to our readers, for having to cut the quote. For our reasoning for cutting the quote can be found at the end of the article.

NNN approached the doctor of the clinic for a comment on the matter. They stated they were moving to Nyveldet with their family, and requested to have their name not published in the article. The other employees of the clinic have stated similar requests.

Breaking News: KRF members arrested in Norgsveldet and Nisserige!

It has been revealed this morning by the NCIS director, Henrik Wergland, that five members from the Kaldrbuthian terrorist organization, KRF, have been arrested in Osfjord International Airport. With said members having planned to take a plane to East Atlalandr. According to Wergland the NCIS was able to track down the members after an anonymous tip. This has come to light after a series of arrests on KRF members across several nations in Concord after an intense crackdown on KRF activity within Kaldrbuth. This has included an arrest of an KRF member by Nisserige’s police in the city of Franmark, with the Nisser Chancellor Wendel Peters having said was helped with a tip coming from the KIS.

According to a press conference held by the KIS director, Matilda Danidatur, over 300 members from the KRF have either been arrested or terminated and have claimed that their activity has been hampered. Though has stated to remain vigilant and that some high level members of the organization are yet to be found. During the press conference the KIS also claimed to have found links between the KRF and the Kaldrbuthian far right party called National Republicanists. Said links have included certain members among the party having helped fund the KRF through suspicious financial transactions. Which has included a sitting MP on the North Concordian Parliament, Jakop Ørnhorn, one out of only three National Republicanist members in said parliament. Mister Ørnhorn has rejected the claim to having helped fund the KRF.

Ørnhorn and his fellow members of National Republicanists are among only 9 MPs in the North Concordian Parliament to vote against the condemnation of the KRF and have a long history of sympathy towards the organization. Said links between the party and the KRF has led to many within Kaldrbuth to call for the banning of the National Republicanists. With the Kaldrbuthian prime minister, Sara Ysverdatur, announcing that her government will be putting up a motion to the Kaldrbuthian parliament to ban the political party. First time to happen in Kaldrbuth since the end of the Concordian Cold War, with the last time being the banning of the Radical Social Front in 1978.

Breaking News: Riots in Ånslan and Duarlan after a speech made by Far Right Deputy Leader

Yesterday the Deputy Leader of the Fatherland Party, Rosia Sannadatur, after a week break returned to give a speech during the Fatherland Party’s meeting before their leadership vote this July. During the speech she proclaimed that the increased level of crime within Nyveldet is a result of “incompetence” and “mismanagement” by local leaders within the autonomous communities of Ånslan and Duarlan. During the same speech she also praised the far right organization called the Nyveldian National Front for: “Keeping order in the crime ridden interior.”

As a result of the speech, a series of large-scale protests and riots has sprung forth across several towns and cities in the tiefling dominant regions of Ånslan and Duarlan. With local police forces having requested increased reinforcements from other cities in Nyveldet to deal with the riots. The protests and riots had been supported by local People’s Worker Party representatives, such as Alei Cogasi who called it the: “Natural response to the vile and morally apprehensive speech by the Nyveldian right.”

The riots has been strongly condemned by the Administrative President of Nyveldet, Ragnar Torsteinson, who has called the rioters for “acting like animals” and stated on Pigeon that he will send the Home Guard to deal with the “insurgents” if the police is not able too. This has led to the website leaving a community note correcting that Administrative Presidents of Norgsveldet does not have the power to send in the Home Guard without approval by the Norgsveltian Crown.

Breaking News: Abortion clinic destroyed in Hirdvik

The abortion clinic in Hirdvik has been destroyed in a similar way to the previous abortion clinic in Osfjord. The growing trend of abortion clinics being more heavily protested against, roads being blocked to and now the concerning development of the clinics being outright directly attacked. After the clinic in Osfjord was destroyed, the Akuan residents of Hirdvik seemed to be emboldened by the lackluster response by the Norgsveltian government.

The clinic itself was not the only one destroyed, as it was reported by the main physician that their car’s tires were slashed and then later on the 20th the car’s gas tank was filled with water. Additionally additional staff stepped forward citing similar things to a lesser scale, such as vandalism on their homes calling them baby killers and broken windows. None of the crimes ever have charges or Akuanists stepping forward to confess the crime.

A veteran police officer gave a statement on the issue but requested to remain anonymous “Usually, when a Akuanists commits a crime even when it’s something minor like jaywalking. They usually walk towards a police officer on their own or the brewmaster pressures them into confessing the crime. No one stepped forward and confessed, the brewmasters are not talking to us about the crime, and the suspects we do bring in ask for a lawyer. This is a complete departure from norm. They still confess and the brewmasters will talk to us about other crimes, just not about what is happening to the employees of the clinic.”

The attack appeared to be coordinated and planned for, with an estimated dozen figures taking direct part in the destruction of the clinic. Despite this, there has been no witness to the crime and the security cameras in the nearby business were allegedly turned off for maintenance. The security cameras in the abortion clinic were turned off after the power lines to the building were cut, resulting in no footage of the attack similar to the previous clinic destruction in Osfjord.

Clinic doctor’s home vandalised by pro-life activists

Novreheim’s Administrative President, Hanna Ærligheten, has strongly condemned the attack and the harassment against the clinic’s staff. She along other members of the Labour Party in the region see it as “completely unacceptable” and has urged mayors to increase the security of the clinics. Miss Ærligheten has been one of the Labour Party’s strongest opponents for pro-choice policies, being seen as one of the leading reasons why the party has recently put an official pro-choice platform. Which led to the Akuan Interest Party to split from them in 2020.

She has stated to the NNN that she will fight for “the women’s right for bodily autonomy” and has urged the Norgsveltian government to increase further police funding into Novreheim to ensure security of abortion clinics are protected. While her statements have met with strong support from the People’s Workers Party, it has been limited in support among her own party. With Labour ministers staying silent on her statements while Ulvriktru Democrats ministers, like the Minister of Children and Families, Trin Ny’Itfel, making a statement on Pigeon that: “Miss Ærligheten cannot hide behind the rights for women as an excuse for her support to such an heinous institution. She might have forgotten but I sure do not, the polls have shown that the large majority of women is pro-life not pro-murder.”

Breaking News: Gravestones of former politicians and doctors vandalized by signs. Third Abortion Clinic destroyed.

Numerous graveyards across mainland Norgsveldet and Nyveldet have been vandalized, specifically the gravestones of former pro-choice politicians, abortion doctors and pro-choice activists. Gravestones of politicians and pro-choice activists being covered in a red-glue like paint mixture onto their graves. The doctors received a special treatment of red-glue paint and a sign with a number of abortions operations the doctor processed.

The third abortion clinic being destroyed was in Nyveldet in the Akuan district there. With a similar style of destruction as previous attacks on clinics. With no witnesses or security cameras being online during the attack at the time. However this time, the ringleader of the attack brewmaster Ny’Friz was arrested with discovery of the various supplies used in the attack being found within their apartment building in a police raid into their apartment.

The arrest of the brewmaster Ny’Friz led to widespread protests in Nyveldet, with large demonstrations of Akuanists marching against arrest in the region’s capital, Werby. Numerous Akuan figures spoke out against the arrest, with some suggesting that the Fatherland Party is targeting the religious minorities in Nyveldet including Akuanists, citing the previous comments the Administrative President stated about the Tiefling riots.

With Ragnar Torsteinson having to deal with the continued riots in Ånslan and Duarlan, while protests from Pro-LGBTQ, Pro-Farmer and Pro-Akuan organizations within Nyveldet at the same time having led to many question his continued leadership as the region’s Administrative President. Fatherland Party’s leader Erik Vederveld has stated that Torsteinson’s continued presidency is going to be brought up in the party meeting next weekend.

Prime Minister, Wilhelm Kirkeland, stated in a video to Pigeon that: “I condemn any usage of violence, even if I sympathize with your causes. I urge every citizen to have tolerance towards your fellow citizens, no matter species, gender or political affiliation. And I must mention, do not vandalize graves. It is completely disrespectful and horrible actions of any group to do, which I condemn in the strongest possible degree.”

The prime minister had a piece of cake attached to his cheek, as it became known to us that Mister Kirkeland was celebrating his 57th birthday with his family. Which has included his eldest daughter, Emila Kirkeland, who is the leader of the Labour Party’s Youth Wing, Youth’s Workers Union (YWU), the YWU had recently put on their platform supporting Pro-Choice to abortion and have urged the Labour Party to do the same. Which has led to Emilia being on the receiving end of threats and vandalism from Pro-Life organizations. Two days ago, the YWU leader had reported to the police that wheels of her car were punctured during her visit to the Akuan District in Osfjord. According to the police they were not able to find the interpretations with residents still refusing to work with the police. With the police saying they are still investigating the case.

The escalation of violence and vandalism by pro-life groups organized by Akuan communities has led to further discontent within the Labour Party as pro-choice members within it are calling for the prime minister to take a firm stance against it. With the loudest being Novreheim’s Administrative President, Hanna Ærligheten, who has proclaimed on Pigeon that: “I am not certain I can stay within a party which is led by a man who refuses to listen to women’s right for bodily autonomy.” Novreheim compared to the other Administrative Regions has had a far stricter response to the violence and vandalism, with Novreheim’s police having arrested dozens of Akuanists for Pro-Life vandalism and violence, most being described being female and kemonomimi. Which in return has led tens of thousands Akuanists protestings in cities of Novreheim against the arrests, with many Akuanists calling for the resignation of Miss Ærligheten. With several conservative Ulvriktru organizations joining the protests, including UD members in the Novreheim council.

Ulvriktru Democrats leader and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bjørn Varg, for the first time spoke up about the matter in which he called for everyone to follow the law and work with the police. But has proclaimed that any attempted change by the Labour Party to the established stance by the government on abortion will lead to his party leaving the coalition. “Me and my party’s stance on abortion is clear, if the pro-choice members think they can change that and have a functional government at the same time then they are completely mistaken”.

Fatherland Party’s Deputy Leader, Rosia Sannadatur, has also commented on the matter stating she is giving her full support to the Akuan protests against abortion and has proclaimed any supporter of Pro-Choice to be: “Baby killing monsters who do experiments on children!” With pictures circulating on the internet of her holding her new Akuan son while attending Pro-Life protests.

In a leaked phone call between Kirkeland and the Federal Prime Minister of the Federation, it was claimed that Pierre suggested “Send in the home guard.” To defend the abortion clinics before civil unrest got to an uncontrollable situation. While it is unknown Kirkeland’s reaction to the situation.

It was revealed this morning by the North Concordian Council that the new Council President for the NCEF will be Kåre Ny’andizn from Hvaloaszna. With this being the first time in North Concordian history that an Akuanist was chosen to become Council President. The outgoing Council President, Mæra Saradatur, has congratulated the new president and states her trust towards Ny’andizn. During a press conference she proclaimed that: “With Ny’andizn at the wheel the voice of Akuanists in NCEF and globally will be lifted up.”

Mister Ny’andizn one out of three candidates to the NCEF position, with it being a tight race between him and the presidential candidates of Asker Vantsøn from Norgsveldet and Viktor Olsman from Maanbriak. The victory of Ny’andizn has been seen with major celebration within the Progressive and Akuan Group that is active in the NCEF parliament.

“I was honored when I was even suggested to be one of the candidates running for the office. I never imagined becoming the president but yet, here I stand behind the lectern behind one of the biggest economic and political unions. I swear to uphold the high standards of our collective institution and strive for uplifting all our member states. So we all may benefit from our strengths and improve upon our weaknesses. May the spirits guide us to humility and greater things.”

The new president has been congratulated by several members of the NCEF with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bjørn Varg, having stated on Pigeon that it was “about time that we had an Akuanist president for the NCEF!” Despite largely positive feedback in Norgsveldet the choice of Ny’andizn as the bloc’s new president has been criticized by the People’s Workers Party’s MPs in the North Concordian Parliament. In which they claim that: “The way the North Concordian President is chosen is inherently undemocratic with the lack of parliamentary involvement. It is hardly fair that the Popular Left’s voice can’t be heard in this process.”

It should be noted that the Popular Left only makes up 37 seats out of 869 seats within the North Concordian Parliament. Less than 5% of the parliament’s seats. According to political experts claiming that if the North Concordian Parliament was going to have a decision over the North Concordian Council’s decision making over the organization’s presidency then it would be more dominated by conservative and right wing groups such as Alliance for Tradition and Heritage. In contrast the presidential candidates were dominated by liberal and center left candidates.

Replying to the PWP comment, the Akuan Interest Party replied by sending a book to the PWP headquarters in Osfjord, signed by the head of the party and various chairpeople of the party. ‘How to make friends and be popular’ is a popular book for Norgsveltian young adults and teenagers, especially for the introverted crowd and the people suffering from socializing disabilities.

Breaking News: Springtime for Naylorbrookisza banned in Osfjord for hate speech and public indecency.

The Nystatinne Musical, Springtime for Naylorbrookisza, has been banned in the Administrative Region of Osfjord after review by the regional council with the ban being recommended by local courts. According to Torbjørn Havret, Administrative President of Osfjord, the ban was placed upon the musical for violating regional laws about hate speech and public decency. With him specifically pointing towards the Osfjordian law, “Hat oppfordring” (Staynish: Incitement to Hatred), of § 101 which bans all incitement of hatred against national, species, religious or ethnic groups. The musical has been met with much scrutiny within Norgsveldet for what many have called as a glorification of a fascistic-like dictator and war criminal.

The heavy scrutiny towards the musical has left many calling for similar bans to be placed in other regions of Norgsveldet. With many claiming it doesn’t just violate the different regions constitution but the Norgsveltian constitution as whole, with the constitution having similar constitutional paragraphs against hateful rhetoric. In spite of that, a few defenders of the musical have claimed that the constitution’s paragraphs about free speech and artistic expression makes it clear that the musical does not violate constitutional law. Which has led to an increased debate within online circles of Norgsveldet about free speech and hate speech. With even politicians bringing it up such as the Nyveldian Councilor, Erik Grøntvik of the Fatherland Party, having stated that the musical will be able to be played in Nyveldet. With him having stated on a Pigeon post that: “The Fatherland Party will continue to ensure that Nyveldet is Norgsveldet’s bastion for Freedom of Speech.”

“Jokes aside, it was a pleasure watching you grow up and babysitting you. Even though you would run off because you thought I was boring. So happy birthday, and many more to come.

Breaking News: The Queen’s 50th Birthday!

Large celebrations being held around the Crown Realm for the Queen’s Day, with large festivals having been held in Osfjord as people take advantage of their day off. Queen Wilhelmina is celebrating her 50th birthday in the Federation together with most of her family. In which a large party is being held with invitees from around the world. Across Norgsveldet the Royal Flag was raised high across several government buildings with local governments sponsoring local cultural events. With the Mayor of Osfjord, Anna Birkdal, stating on her Pigeon that the capital will be having large celebrations in the Akuan District and encouraged people to participate.

Within the Akuan Districts across Norgsveldet, the streets and walkways were crowded with district-wide partying in the streets, roof-top and in several buildings. Businesses within the Akuan Districts offering discounted baked goods and drinks in honor of Wilhelmina’s upbring as a baker. Colorful ribbons and lights across the traditionally old fashion district, with signs of the royal family being displayed proudly in the streets.

Several Gothirs and Conservative organizations held similar celebrations across Norgsveldet with large focus on the Queen’s Royal Work. With the High Gothir of Osfjord and Orthodox Gustafism, opening a museum dedicated to the Queen in Osfjord itself. The Museum is located near Haakon’s Bridge so it is easily accessible to both those who live outside and inside of the Akuan District.

The Queen’s birthday party in Federation has gotten attention for the large number of international invitees. With representatives from across the Crown Realm being present, but also royal visitors from close allies of Norgsveldet. Such as Crown Princess Astrid of Kaldrbuth, King Ragnar V of Atlalandr and Queen Astrid I of Helslandr. Reports also have claimed that the Jarlynja of Normand, Albertine IV and her family will be participating in the party as well. With the Jarlynja’s Royal House being the Frida Dynasty who ruled the Old Queendom of Lapérouse before its collapse in the 1920s. Empress Marium I of Vistaraland and the Jarlynja of Lapiliszna, Esta the Protector, will be participating in the party as well. Which led to some concerns about the later two as a result of Federation foreign policy towards the two nations in question.

With reports of the Frida Dynasty being at the party, it marks a historical occasion in domestic history within the Federation. Being the first time they were allowed to visit the capital post-Unification war, the second time in recorded history a member of house Frida was invited to a government sponsored event and first time in the last 80 years that the heads of the two dynasties met in an official capacity. Due to the reclusive nature of the dynasty, Federation government policies and laws were placed on the former royal house of the Lapérouse. Marking a huge change within the country, with many questioning why the Federation suddenly changed its rules on the royal house.

The Royal House has stated on their website that they are thankful to all the celebrations and congratulations being given to the Queen for her birthday celebration. With Queen Wilhelmina having made a video personally thanking people and sent a message to Akuanists within Norgsveldet stating that “May our hopes about a cruelless world come true, and take care of our children.” With the message having been in Ny’stat’en but with Norgsveltian subtitles. The Royal Family has also released pictures on their website showing the celebration in the morning which included a large family photo. In which said photo the Jarl of Vakrestrender, Jørgen Bjørn, appears to be tackled by Princess Ny’Tencømo.

The Jarl of Vakrestrender released a statement online after the picture was released. Producing a photo of a young Princess Ny’Tencømo crying in pre-transition Jørgen arms, behind the pair, is a statue of a clown waving a knife with growing red eyes and dropping a basket of candy on the sideway with candy spilling out of it. With the caption “Hel’s Day 2013; BTW Nek-o I still own that statue <3”

We at the NNN wish the Queen an amazing birthday and we wish her continued long life. We will also thank the Jarl of Vakrestrender for the picture.

His majesty, Olav I, announced on the Royal House’s website that he and his wife will be going on a one month tour around the Federation. In which his majesty has stated that they will be visiting every petite-nation making up the Federation.

“I have always had in my intention to visit every corner of each Crown Realm nation, and I have promised the queen a good vacation as a birthday gift!”

It has come as a surprise by many for the sudden announcement of the tour. According to some government officials they were only warned a day prior to the announcement. Some have placed the reasoning behind it as result of rumors about the king’s eldest son, Prince Johan, having visited the heiress of the old Frida Dynasty. Though there have been no photos confirming said visits.

Wilhelm Kirkeland have stated his well wishes to the Royal couple wishing the two a good trip. With him also stating that he is certain that Princess Alexandra, second in line to the throne, will do a wonderful job in her father’s stead.

Federal Prime Minister of the Federation, Jeanne Pierre, stated that the tour was known beforehand and was prepared for. The tour will be taking the famous train route ‘Inter-States Network, 031’ or more commonly referred in pop culture and on social media as ‘The Belt.’ The train route is the largest train route in the Federation and in the peninsula as a whole. Going to every capital of the petite-nations of the country, including the city-states and autonomous regions. There are close to three hundred major tourist, historical and cultural attractions on the route. As well as numerous monuments, artworks and other forms of creativity created specifically to be seen from the train route. Pierre wished Princess Alexandra well on her vacation in Norgsveldet, and informed NNN that she will be stockpiling the necessary paperwork for her to complete when she comes back.

Breaking News: Rosia Sannadatur chosen as the Fatherland Party’s new leader

The former leader of the Fatherland Party, Erik Vederveld, has stated to the NNN that he will be resigning as Party’s leader after the most recent party meeting. He has stated that he wishes Miss Sannadatur good luck as leader and that he is confident that the party will continue to be under good leadership. According to other party members Miss Sannadatur was chosen for her “ambitious” and “creative” political thinking which they state the party was needing. Though most political experts have pointed towards her family’s large wealth which includes ownership of several important companies within Nyveldet. Most noticeable being Sannadatur’s son, Erik Torsteinson, owner of major media and service companies in Nyveldet such as Family Focus Entertainment, Nyveldian Eagle and co-owner of NyMa. With her eldest son, Ragnar Torsteinson, being the Administrative President of Nyveldet.

Some political commentators have proclaimed that Sannadatur would turn the Fatherland Party into a further nationalistic and populist rhetoric reversing the years of careful moderation which Vederveld was able to push. With the expectation that such a maneuver might strengthen and secure the Fatherland Party’s position in Nyveldet but ensure its voters on the mainland would turn to the Ulvriktru Democrats.

Despite these concerns Sannadatur recently stated in a press conference that: “I will work to ensure all Norgsveltians prosper, we are all Norgsveltians and as such we must work with members of the Akuan and LGBTQ+ community against the radicals.” A statement which had pondered many from within and outside the party. Though she has also stated that she will continue to support law and order in Nyveldet harshly condemning the “looters” and “thieves” in Ånslan and Duarlan.

Leader of the People’s Workers Party (PWP), Merli Cirivele, announced on Pigeon that: “Nyveldet is about to go on a very dark path with Miss Sannadatur on the reigns.” She urged all PWP supporters to continue their protests and opposition to the far right’s hateful comments.

Breaking News: Political earthquake after Ingrid the Reclaimer’s speech.

With Crown Princess Ingrid’s speech yesterday proclaiming her strong opposition to abortion and urging Akuanists to “defend the defenseless” having gained large attention in Norgsveldet. With politicians from across the political spectrum commenting on it, with the Crown Princess gaining large support from the Fatherland Party and the Akuan Interest Party. With recently chosen leader of the former, Rosia Sannadatur, having proclaimed on Pigeon that: “Any patriotic Norgsveltian would agree with Fyllikenkrasjlander’s statements. I stand with Ingrid, I stand with our Akuan siblings!” With many members of the Fatherland Party suggesting restricting the already strict abortion rights in Nyveldet.

The AIP released a statement on their official Pigeon account: “Defend the defenseless comes in many ways, but the most important way is through legality and protests. We, of course, are anti-killing babies and we will stand with their words and we will take it to heart to redouble our efforts of ending this children’s serial killing business.”

The Matriarch’s speech was however met with harsh criticism among left wingers and liberals within Norgsveldet. With the PWP having proclaimed on various social media platforms condemning the speech proclaiming it as a “authoritarian” and “backwards” approach in rulership. Eli Enitedatur one of the PWP’s representatives in the parliament having proclaimed Ingrid’s statements to be: “Bordering on being unconstitutional.” She also argues that the Crown Princess must be stripped from her Royal privileges and titles.

Leader of the LNP, Carl Agnar, stated to an reporter that concerns have been raised in his party over the issue and has made it clear that his party will continue to support women’s choice and proclaims that: “Ingrid has a right to raise her voice, but it does not mean we should listen.”

Several members of the Labour Party and its youth wing have also stated their criticism towards the Crown Princess. With the Administrative President of Novreheim, Hanna Ærligheten, and the leader of the Youth’s Workers Union, Emila Kirkeland, having made a joint condemnation of the speech. With the two women having proclaimed that the government must protect the women’s rights for bodily autonomy.

In a recent press conference held by the Prime Minister Wilhelm Kirkeland (LP) and Minister of Foreign Affairs Bjørn Varg (UD) has recently announced that the Ulvriktru Democrats will be leaving the coalition government. With Bjørn Varg having stated that: “With the prime minister and his party being steadfast in their support for pro-choice policies, including Kirkeland’s wishes to send in the Homeguard to protect abortion clinics. I cannot in good consciousness continue to ignore these major differences. I wish the prime minister good luck in finding another coalition partner.”

With the departure of the UD from the coalition having made many question how long Kirkeland’s government may last. With the prime minister having been given a month by his majesty to form a coalition government, if the deadline is not met it is expected that the largest opposition party the NCP would be given the possibility to once more form a government. Though many have questioned the NCP’s ability to form a new government with most parties having refused to work with them.

The Jarl of Vakrestrender and important spokesperson for Akuanism within the Norgsveltian speaking world, Jørgen Bjørn released a video on his social media accounts. Urging for civility and calmness, to follow the laws and discourage the use of ‘non-Akuan’ methods to combat the controversial issue. Maintaining his stance that to take the disputes to the voting booth and not the streets. This being another case of a growing trend of the traditionally apolitical Jarl speaking publicing about political matters, with some experts proposing that he’s following in his family’s tradition of being involved in the political level. Giving another statement soon after, he will speak with Ingrid the Reclaimer to directly voice some concerns he holds.

The local governments of Norgsveldet’s last Crown Territories have announced that they will be holding referendums about their status as Crown Territories. With both Crown Representatives stated they will keep the wishes of the people in mind.

Stating that: “Frankly we are too closely connected to Norgsveldet to proclaim such a thing. It is within our interest, in my personal opinion, to become a county in Nyveldet. There we can have our voices heard.” According to local opinion polls within Gustafsborg many Gustafborgians support remaining as Crown Territory with around 39% support.

Breaking News: Jakop Røtgal released from prison

At 134 years old, Jakop Røtgal, was released from prison for his involvement in the Akuan Atrocities in 1917. With him having served in the Norgsveltian Army as an elven officer during the later end of the Great War. With Røtgal having become famous after an interview with him for a Norgsveltian Great War documentary called “1915: A Sea of Blood” released back in 2011. In which he explained actions he committed during the war and apologized for them. The documentary had caught the eye of the Akuan Community with several prominent members of it having demanded the release of Røtgal for several years. Creating the #FriRøtgal! hashtag on Pigeon.

With majority of funding Norgsveldet given having been back in last year. With large contributions also coming from Atlalandr, Kaldrbuth and Eyjaria. With Eyjaria having given most per capita to Helslandr. The Secretary General has announced that the funding has helped the country massively, which has been echoed by Kattdalen who has called the plan a lifeline for the Helslandr nation. With estimates that the infrastructure can handle refugees returning home, which has become a major policy for the monarchist government. Kattdalen proclaimed it the: “Best assurance for future prosperity and growth.”

While not as large in terms of economic and material aid the NCEF members of Hvaloaszna, Nakosa, Vakrestrender and Pledonia have given a combined 34,6 billion UKR (17,3 billion SHD). According to the mayor of Wirlik, Jakop Edertalbein, several tons of barrels of fish have arrived in the city to help with the recent fish shortage in the city. With many the city also renaming its hospital the Bjørn’s Smiles Hospital after new funding having come from the Bjørn’s Trust. With the aid and general large approval rating of the current government having led to large optimism among the Helslandr public over the nation’s future. With Queen Astrid I of Helslandr having done charity work in the country’s capital for returning refugees from the Federation.

Despite this optimism there has been much debate both from outside and inside Helslandr about the nation relying so much on external aid and investments. With the Norgsveltian University of Business and Finance having warned about sending too much aid to the Helslandr government, stating it be better to be cautious about the aid as to encourage the Helslandr government to rely more on its own sources. Despite said warnings the University has pointed out major successes from the program such as the rebuilding of many vital mining facilities and the Durin’s Energy Pipeline. Which has been rebuilt largely as a result of funding from both the Bassot Plan and Together Lapérouse!. They have however questioned the monetary confusion that might come from usage of two different currencies such as the United Krone and Red Krone on such projects as result of different economic development plans.

The aid is also a matter of large debate in Helslandr’s political scene, with the Republican opposition having stated their concern of amount aid coming from external actors. With the leader of Republican opposition, Erik Espen, from the Republican Union Party (RUP) having stated he does not oppose the amount of aid given to Helslandr but that he urges the government to not rely on too much aid given from nations outside Vestrava. Having gone on Pigeon to state that: “I hope that in the near future that a true Vestravan Bloc gets made to ensure no brother nation is left behind”.

Ela Ymlaia, Leader of the Socialist Royalist Party (SRP) and the Minister of Labour and Social Inclusion replied to the post, with two photos. Photo one being a bombed out neighborhood, and the other photo being the same neighborhood completely rebuilt. “Hey look, at all the evil Red Krone doing dastardly things! How dare they provide us aid in order to rebuild our homes. Btw your hometown looks so much better than it did a year ago <3.”

Ymlaia’s post caused a small scandal for the monarchist government as many within the Republican opposition complained about her lack of professionalism. With the largest critics coming from the opposition left wing as Matilda Fjørndali, leader of the Republican League of Helslandr (RLH), having called the SRP leader of being a “Imperialist Puppet painted red”.

Ymlaia caused further scandal in her reply on pigeon, “One of us killed fascists during the war and the other is a Republican.” She later clarified her points, “We don’t need professionalism, we need action without the finger wavers crying everytime we break some eggs. We’re making the mother of omelets, Matilda, can’t fret over every act of blue collar (which you claim to be part of despite living in that five bedroom, two and a half bath; ‘house’ + nice ‘cabin’ never knew someone need a cabin in the middle of the capital with a view to the sea) language being used.”

Despite different views over foreign involvement in Helslandr there has been broad agreement across Helslandr society in support of the Vestravan-Côtois brigade which currently helping the Helslandr Armed Forces in the occupation of the southern territories of Helslandr that still dealing with nationalist insurgency from the now largely defunct Iron Front. According to brigadier general of the Vestravan-Côtois unit, Josiane Dufour, the insurgency is being decisively contained. Proclaiming it to be like shooting fish in a barrel with help from the Norgsveltian made Tordenfugen TB3 Drone.

Opinion News: Fatherland Party new favorite Akuanist; Henry Ny’Apiran

Henry Ny’Apiran, who even by Nys’tat’en speakers’ standards speaks quickly, found himself a new employment after being dismissed from the Akuan media company ‘Foxit Time’ after his offensive comments towards Duarists in Nyveldet. Implying that Nyveldtian Duarists don’t follow their own religious doctrine and lack the ability to build something of their own without taking it from someone else. He was hired by NyNationen, a right wing news based media company with connections to the Fatherland Party, owned by business conglomerate, Erik Torsteinson.

Henry Ny’Apiran is widely seen by both traditional, progressive and moderate Akuanists to be a extremely far traditionalist. Traditional and progressive terms have a far different meaning for the Akuan world. He calls himself to be more of a Valkyr Akuan democratic rather than the more common orthodox Akuan democracy, Valkyr Akuan democracy being popular within Vakrestrender and in Eyjaborg, a city-state in Rikevaarland. Disliking economic regulation, anti-monopoly and anti-trust laws in Norgsveldet, Henry was an outspoken critic of many of them. Wanting an enlighten, beneficial parental-figure to guide and provide for the region using wealth rather than a more traditional monarch. Considered by virtually all Akuanists outside of Vakrestrender and Eyjaborg to be near if not outright anti-Akuanist in nature. Another controversy he found himself in was the recent abortion where his comments were seen to be far too extreme by Akuanist standards, and due to hate speech laws to be published on the website.

During his court case, he was fired from Foxit Time after he made a post on Pigeon about the Duarists with the judge handling the case being a Duarist Tiefling from Nyveldet. As such the company stopped paying for his legal defense, but he quickly received support from the Fatherland Party and NyNationen hiring him during his court case. Henry described his court case as being anti-Akuanist, as stories and opinions are meant to be shared freely without the threat of violence hanging over someone’s head.

Being hired at NyNationen, he was given a show which translated from Nys’tat’en to mean “New Akuanist.” His new show being spoken purely in Nys’tat’en, a first for the company to offer such. As well being the first for the company to broadcast on local radio stations in Nyveldet, in particular between 5am to 8am and another time slot in 6pm to 8pm on weekdays. When asked why he wanted those particular timesets, it is when most Akuanists goto and come from work, often on the bus. With most buses operating in the Akuan districts in Nyveldet, usually playing Nys’tat’en radio stations.

On top of the radio show and podcast. He is popular on social media sites, such as Ourtube and Pigeon. Where he frequently is in arguments with other Akuanists or sharing clips from his podcast on. Majority of his arguments with other Akuanists being targeted towards worrying or focusing on the wrong thing, such as if a meat is Grusomhetsfritt Kjøtt or not, when the Akuanist is carrying a credit card or having a mortgage that doesn’t follow the Akuan rules on finance.

While he is seen as an extreme traditionalist, he does carry a heavy following among some of the strict and traditionalist Akuanists. With a growing resentment within Norgsveldet, with the growth of rising housing prices requiring (non-Akuan financed) mortgages, gentrification on Akuan districts, and People’s Worker Party recently new slew of speciest and anti-Akuanist rhetoric towards Akuanists in Norgsveldet. In particular the last point, of the PWP seeing a greater interest in his following. As Akuanists online and in traditional media are pointing towards the PWP as a prime example of why Akuanists in Norgsveldet can’t vote socialist and alluding towards that the PWP behind closed-doors, are planning on harming Akuanists.

Breaking News: Meeting between the Blåskovian Crown Prince and President Minerva Todd

It has been recently reported in different Concordian and Blåskovian news agencies that Crown Prince Wilan of Blåskog had landed in the capital city of UCCS, Ronald, F.D. With the Blåskovian government having announced that the Crown Prince will be having a meeting with the UCCS’s president, Minerva Todd. The topic of the meeting being stated to have specifically economic matters in mind. The Blåskovian Crown Prince stated on Pigeon that the UCCS is an important economic partner and investor into the Blåskovian economy in which the meeting is to strengthen these factors and more. Despite the announcement being proclaimed to only be economic matters, the meeting has raised eyebrows among Crown Realm and NCEF members.

Prime Minister Wilhelm Kirkeland has stated that the government is concerned about the UCCS legitimizing the Blåskovian violent actions and conflicts in East Borea through these meetings. With Kirkeland having compared it to: “Feeding rampaging fat wolves.” Similar sentiments having been expressed by the Eyjarian minister of foreign affairs, Gudrun Kleydotter, who stated: “The Blåskovian government deserves sanctions, not investments and trade.” Despite Blåskog having been thrown out of the NCEF no official joint sanctions have been placed on the Blåskovian government after its invasion of Syrtænaszna last year. With proposals of joint sanctions on the East Borean nation having been blocked by Vistaraland, it became Blåskog’s largest investor and trade partner after most NCEF members placed individual sanctions on the country. With only joint sanctions on the East Borean nation that the entirety of NCEF having agreed upon being the matters of arms exports.

FPM of the Federation, Jeanne Pierre released a small statement about the meeting. “This is not unexpected, carcasses attract vultures and there is no bigger vulture than the Corporatocracy States of Concord.” The Norgsveltian government had made no comment about Pierre’s statement when asked about it. The NNN has attempted to reach out to the Jarl of Vakrestrender for a comment about the Blåskovian Crown Prince with it being publicly known that the Jarl had a previous relationship with the Crown Prince. But Jarl Bjørn’s secretary has refused to comment about the meeting and his past relationship with the Blåskovian Crown Prince, proclaiming he rather focus on his current relationship with Johanna Sverdrup.

Minerva Todd also was reached out during a separate press briefing over the newly-passed Economic Fairness Act: “Mrs. Pierre must say what she has to say in the position she is in. But I will remind Mrs. Pierre that vultures do not tend to hunt down and kill their prey. Now who might have made that carcass? A question for the ages.”

In a separate Communique by the President, Ms. Todd also praised the meeting with Blåskog, hailing it as “the start of an important chapter in the UCCS’s and Blåskog’s history.”

Breaking News: UD leader, Bjørn Varg, announces creation of a New Political Bloc within the parliament

Former Minister of Foreign Affairs and leader of the Ulvriktru Democrats (UD), Bjørn Varg, has announced on Pigeon that he had a meeting with Bergiz Ny’kken, leader of the Akuan Interest Party (AIP), and Rosia Sannadatur, leader of the Fatherland Party (FP), in which their three parties will create a political bloc within the Grand Assembly. The political bloc being named, Religious Interests Bloc, or shortened to just the Religious Bloc. According to the conservative and UD affiliated newspaper, Kongensfolk, the Religious Bloc unified purpose is the promotion of religious schools, opposition to secularism, opposition to abortion, promotion of local interests, promotion of family values, promotion of increased parental leave, promotion of Ny’Ingerism and promotion of Norgsveltian Federalism. With mister Varg proclaiming the creation as the inherent answer to the liberal abortion policies that have been pushed since the creation of the 80s and 90s political movement called the Goth Movement. According to recent opinion polls the Religious Bloc sits at 41,85%, higher than the government’s coalition’s combined 40,93% in the same polls.

The Bloc’s creation has been a major shock for many within the Norgsveltian left and center who called the UD leader for being irresponsible for “rubbing elbows” with the Norgsveltian far right. Leader of the PWP, Merli Cirivele, has stated in Pigeon that the AIP and UD is making a major mistake for “siding” with a “Neo-Fascist” like Rosia Sannadatur. The UD Deputy Leader, Geri Tavson, responded to the criticism by proclaiming that: “The Religious Bloc is committed to Norgsveltian democracy, Norgsveltian traditions. Despite my disagreements with the Fatherland Party it has shown more commitments to said ideals than the PWP and its Einarist Past.” Tavson’s comments only furthered the controversy as many within the PWP had accused the UD for deliberately ignoring the FP’s past. The Administrative President of Novreheim and a influential Labour Party member, Hanna Ærligheten, proclaimed the creation as an attack on women rights and has announced harsh criticism towards the AIP. Stating they are being used by the Norgsveltian right against their own interest. The AIP had been formerly part of Labour’s Akuanist Wing until it split in 2019, over the issue of abortion. Leader of the AIP, Bergiz Ny’kken, made a viral video on Pigeon addressing the claims made by the Administrative President. The video spread across the internet with support coming from across the political spectrum despite the harsh criticism towards the Labour Party.

“With all due respect to the Administrative President, but an overwhelming majority of pro-life activists are in fact women. Before the AIP was formed, we brought our concerns to you about abortion and it being unnecessarily used in too many cases. When we advocate for birth control, parental leave and better education. The ability for parents to more easily access welfare and daycare centers. You were on board, despite you repeatedly refusing to push for more funds in budget meetings. Then when we brought our concerns about our children losing their culture, their faith you ignored us. When we Akuanists brought our concerns that our Akuan Districts will be cannibalized by corporations and the rich moving in. You ignored us then too. You claim that it was abortion that split us apart, but rather it was a series of disrespect and refusal to advocate on Akuanists behalf as a whole. The Labour Party never made a real push for Akuan interests and preservation of our belief and culture, meanwhile the UD has repeatedly defended us. It wasn’t the PWP or LP that made gay marriage legal, but the UD, something folks online tend to forget about. You make a statement saying we’re used by the far right, but in all honesty you would have preferred us Akuanists to reject our ancient heritage in favor of becoming more like you and less like us.”

The Labour Party has yet to make an official comment about the video. The NNN will like to note that the PWP was not an political party when gay marriage was passed in 1989 and it was pushed by a joint Labour/UD coalition government. With UD only changing its policies on same sex activity and marriage in 1979 and 1985 respectfully.

Breaking News: Hel’s day celebration

Today marks an important cultural and religious celebration as across the Ulvriktru world celebrate Hel, Goddess of Death. In which one is meant to dress up as a creature or being that is seen as terrifying, in which according to Ulvriktru doctrine Hel will protect you from said creature. Despite its Ulvriktru origins the day is also celebrated by many Non-Ulvriktruars, with Vakrestrender holding large celebrations despite being majority Akuanist. Within Osfjord a large festival is held near the Royal Palace with Hel’s themed food and drinks being served.

The play is being recorded by the NNN. In Helsdalen, Kaldrbuth, the Death Temple holds a special play about three women protecting a wounded and weak man according to orders from Hel. Helsdalen is well known for deep sexism towards men, including the refusal of letting single men enter the Death Temple in which they must have a female companion. The only exceptions having been given to members of the Kaldrbuthian and Norgsveltian Royal Families, or if the single man is widowed.

With several protests of Hjørdist families springing up across the Federation, primarily within the Jarldoms of the Federation, with counter protesters from university students matching them.
