| Welcome to the Global Right Alliance's forums! Firstly, you can only see a very limited amount of the forums at the moment. You will be able to see the full forums and properly participate in our region and its community when you register. Join our Community Now, on to the region itself. Don't let the name, specifically the "Right", fool you. We've got members from across the political spectrum, and our political parties have always reflected this. The Global Right Alliance (GRA), as primarily a gameplay region, has been everything from an anarchy to a monarchy to a homegrown rotatorship. The region has had such governments because of its culture, which adores political intrigue and thrives on confrontation. With the increase of the region's population, many veterans have returned. It is the beginning of a new Global Right Alliance and a new government system. I know the forums can be quite intimidating; there's people who have been here for nearly a decade and have over 10,000 posts. However, we welcome new members and encourage them to get involved.

Sorry my activity in the GRA has been down a little this week, but Q102's been hectic! All kinds of things are going on, especially for the fine nation of Joe Bobs. Our recent move into the two party system has been met with ill favour as nations have been accused of cannibalism, conspiracy and slander (slander for the previous two accusations). Some nations felt that politics should only be serious, some felt it was for fun. Now a compromise has been reached, and political humour is reserved for the two political papers "The Voice of Democracy" and "The Voice of the People." The United Opposition Coalition (of which I am a member) has now formalised it's political position and refinement of its policies is ongoing. In other news, the first Q102 Award ceremony will be taking place on Sunday, organised and presented by myself and Calm Minds. Drop into the "Hall of Fame" thread on Sunday for the results. Nevareion has been using his new political independence to criticise pretty much everyone, which is keeping all party members on their toes. His proposed "Slander Bill" which will punish slanderous nations with a negative signature looks like it will be passed, which should be very fun. Judges are currently being sought after, and will be appointed shortly. I am in the running! We also have a new active member, Valoron, whose RP is intriguing to say the least! Expect big things from this nation. The Joe Bobs Civil War has worsened as our enemies, the Mwees, have been found to have international terrorist connections. A huge coalition comprising myslef, PC, Lamedud, Xasu, Aaronyne and New Caldari are combating them currently. And I think that's pretty much it, apart from the constant floods of new things going on with the new political sytem. Exciting times for Q102! |

I am getting so confused between these two foums. Sorry for lack of posting in this'n. Anywho, in the vote for UOC leadership, I won with 60% of the votes! The party, the United Opposition Coalition, is the only opposition to the ruling PPP. It was formed by Lamedud and Peachydom, and has gained a lot of respect in its short existence. We are confident about the next elections.

The great and wonderful Calm Minds has left NationStates! Calm Minds was my older brother figure in regards to NS, and I've worked alongside him on a lot of stuff. He's going to be greatly missed. |

It's crazy I know. We've had the return of Lamedud a few months ago, and then Leinstermunster left. And when Peachy returns, Calm Minds leaves! It's all a bit insane. But so long as we have Nev and Zak, the world will be OK. >touches wood< |

There has been massive political upheavel! Zak has left her position as Foreign Affairs Councillor due to RL commitments, but is still active and remains a member of the PPP. PC has stepped down as delegate due to, and this is really awful; he was mugged and beaten nearly half to death. He has a broken arm, a broken leg and two broken ribs, plus all kinds of bruising and stuff. He's making a good recovery, but he's on a lot of painkillers and stuff. It's really quite horrible. We're all hoping he'll make a speedy recovery and that the pieces of **** that did that get their come-upance. |

I've said that everyone at the GRA sends their best wishes. He's doing OK now. He went out to a gig or something last night so he must be doing better. Hopefully something will happen to those chavs that makes them infertile.
In further Q102 news, I started the Q102 Space Project in the RP forums today. i await to see if it gets any interest. Also, election fever is in the air! We at the UOC have figured out that it is virtually impossible for us to win as thinsg stand, as the PPP have 8 members to out 4, and there are only 2 non-partisan regularly active members. We have a few strategies to change things, but, to be perfectly honest, I'm not filled with optimism. If one of my plans works it may be the single greatest achievement in the history of NS politics.

Q102 has formed a Coalition Government in an attempt to tackle the low regional numbers and the lack of Delegate and Vice Delegate. The two parties, UOC and PPP have merged, but the exact details have not yet been confirmed, nor has the delegacy, much to my annoyance. As UOC leader, I'd have preferred some concrete legislature before this all came about. Currently, the Republic of Aaronyne, as PPP secretary, is doing his best to attempt to organise a chaotic situation. The UOC has also welcomed a new member who is seriously considering entering the role of Shadow Foreign Affairs Minister, 2000AD (or Love and Honour as he's known here). So until the PPP hold the in-party delegate election and assign UOC members roles in the Council I can't say I really have a clue what's going on. |

Can I make a confession? I sort of forgot I was an ambassador here. Oops! I'm so used to being in the GRA I completely forgot I'm supposed to give you updates and such. A whole lot has happened in Q102 since our last update. Republic of Aaronyne won the election and had become Delegate. I am his Deputy Delegate. As he is currently on holiday, I am Acting Delegate. RoA took 67% of the vote, Joe Bobs 33%. I don't yet know how many people voted. The new cabinate is as such: Delegate: Republic of Aaronyne Deputy Delegate: Joe Bobs Councillor for Internal Affairs: Pacifist Cowards Councillor for Foreign Affairs: FluffyPinkBunnyGirl Councillor for Immigration & Officials: Joe Bobs Councillor for Hospiality: Lamedud Councillor for Security: Anime Fandom X |

The Hospitality department has been Sandy White Beaches for about a year. Before that it was Lamedud. SWB did a great deal with it, and created the map. However, he's not been able to be as active recently, so he's not online enough to be a Councillor. LD will do a good job though. As I&O Councillor, my duty is to check up on ambassadors. Are you satisfied with the performance of your ambassador?
