[b][i]British Public Outraged over the blatant surrender of Canadian Land[/i][/b]

[i]Today was revealed a further Treaty giving up North American Land to foreign nations. Though there is some benefit, the constant upheaval and instability of Albert Edward's Administration has made the British Public restless and uneasy about our stance in the world. First, by continuing a war when our primary reason for joining such was at the behest of our 'allies' the French, the baseless accusations attempted during the war, the blatant disregard for our merchant forces with the use of every British ship for the blockade, and now these constant treaties giving up more and more British land for military strength. The British People are in an uproar and demand that a stable government be achieved![/i]

[b][i]Albert Edward Resigns! Elections incoming![/b][/i]

[i]The people of the British Republic rejoiced today as the enemy of British stability decided to leave his office. Now, the British People turn to their first election as a new Republic. Two such politicians have emerged in this battle. William Ewart Gladstone from the Liberal party and Benjamin Disraeli from the Conservatives. The two have very opposing platforms over the direction of the United Republic. Disraeli is a proponent of restoring the British Glory that has declined since the Dissolution of the Monarchy. The man preaches an aggressive foreign policy, but also a strong focus on the working classes of Britain. He is staunchly opposed to the FFGB alliance and has stated, "We claim friendship with the French, yet when we stand behind them in a fight....they duck the instant they see the punch coming and it is Britain who is left with the black eye." On the opposing end, Gladstone is more focused on the Irish and matters at home and in India. It is his wish to restore faith in the Indian peoples and their economy. He supports the FFGB, though remains leery of the deals made by the previous administration.[/i]
