It is day one of the Frabjous Anarchist's Party Conference. The last months have been a non-stop turmoil of allegations of sleaze and corruption, and public confidence is at an all-time low. These few days will be the turning point for the party - either they will emerge consolidated under their current leadership, or new blood will rise to take control of the party, and lead in a new era for the party.

Today's political discussion will end at 4pm Wednesday. With 15 players in the room, 8 votes are required to expel someone.

Order, order.

Or something.

What time does the bar open? And can we claim for drinks on expenses?

I plan to introduce a bill about drinking, so it is important that all members get as much experience with it as possible.
On expenses.

Our government should be based on three things.

I do "volunteer" work for "registered charity" Owen & Owen Brewers and I'm sure that, if we would worked together on this, we could draft some legislation that would help the "local community" in these trying times.

I was only participating in harmless barracking, but could be persuaded to vote him out. He doesn't sleep enough on the job, and is barely corrupt.

Coins? There are free coins going around? This is another example of wastage in the public services.

It's about time we started campaigning for something the public actually cares about, rather than this expenses thing that they clearly do not.

I suggest the following motions:
1) Equal rights for frogs. Abolish Frog slavery. Too long have toads looked down on their frog brethren. This must stop.
2) Deep Fried Squirrel on a Stick to be the new national dish
3) Extra money into researching cat food that doesn't stink out the house.

Guaranteed election, those.

Let me share some correspondance which I have been partaking in:

Quote:
To The Right Honourable Mr Dave

I am concerned about many of your peers. Mr Chris is a known Skunk Bummer, but is such a jolly good chap (I enjoy a knees up with him on a regular basis) that you should not let this be known, and instead accuse Sir Morté of the crime.

Furthermore, I am in complete agreement with your policy of stopping Frog slavery. Please find enclosed an avatar for your usage to help spread the message

Yours Sincerely, Mr D. Rill.


Attachment:
frogequality.png



Quote:
Dear Mr D. Rill

While I agree with you regarding Sir Morté, and his need to be removed as soon as possible for Skunk Bumming, I find myself unwilling to use your logo, as it appears not to be against Frog Slavery, but rather against Toad/Frog love sessions, a rather pointless political endevour.

Yours Sincerely, The Right Honourable Mr Dave


Quote:
Dear the Right Honourable Mr Dave,

I spent hours on that logo, if you don't use it, I'm going to come round and chop your bollocks off.

Yours Huffily, Mr D. Rill


So based on that, [vote: Morte], the dirty skunk rapist.

How dare you Sir? How dare you besmerch my good name by casting the noble art of Skunk raping in such a dark light? There's no law against it you know?

...well there may be a law against it but it's merely a misdemeanor and covered by Parliamentry Priviliedge (look it up, it's in the Magna Carta).

Frogs you say, frogs? Sod the frogs.

[Vote:Mr Dave]

How's the party supposed to work with such division? The public feels strongly about the issue of frog slavery. The public also feels strongly about the issue of Skunk Rape: Mainly that they don't like it, as the stink follows the perpetrator* for ages, and they don't like sitting next to the rapist in question.

* - Or should that be Perverted Traitor in your case, eh?

The idea of Skunk Rape gives a whole new meaning to grabbing the Mace and waving it over your head.

In similar context.

James Dean and Mr Dave another 2/3rds of a rebel.

According to the Sun, Mr Dave & Morte were caught in a hotel room with a bucket of frogs & a skunk.

I think.

I was well onto my fifth brandy in the common room mind, so I could have this all wrong.

Oh, and Runcle has filched some coins apparently.

I say string him up as a scapegoat quickly while the Morte/MrDave story covers the front pages & hopefully bury it so noone will start poking about with the accounts, know what I mean.

2 Pages of stuff.

Kalmar has made my head hurt with buisness speak, and tried to chat up Grim...
Joans has been absent
Curiosity killed the cat has a Runcle obsession. Well, I suppose someone had to take over from Bobby.
I'm proposing a motion to abolish frog slavery, stop foul smelling cat food and changing the national dish to something with a bit more excitement.
The Rev Owen has made various political noises, and voted for Runcle
Grim... has voted for Mr Chris.
Malc has said Hello. That's all Malc has done.
Which is better than Sir Morté who has done Skunks. Lots of Skunks, the Skunk buggering pervert.
Myp has killed Diana.
Mr Chris has been asleep.
Mr Dom has done little.
You have done not very much, except ask for this summary, which is rather demonstrating how little anyone else has done.
Zaphod has been absent.
Runcle has renounced his coins.
Plissken...

Runcle is most voted for with 2 votes currently http://www.beexcellenttoeachother.com/counter/?t=4137
