| Message | Article 1: We don't care either way. Article 2: But we like our beer. O.o Article 3: We like it... Article 4: We like our old anthem. Article 5: Meh. Article 6: We can't provide energy to our isolate points. It's much cheaper to let them make their own energy as they require. Article 7: Why...? Article 8: Tanks aren't animals... -.- Article 9: Meh. Article 10: We need a new flag, but not that one... Article 11: Hmmm... Izaak Ishtrarovochiev cleared his throat as he started his transmission. "Hello, citizens of Al'Badara. This is Izaak Ishtrarovochiev, leader of GLOCK speaking. The recent return of IngSoc has sparked some rather controversial debates over wether GLOCK shall be behind them in their reforms. Our official stance on this issue is that we agree with some of IngSoc's ideas, but most of them are too extreme. We shall not pledge our support to their cause. Thank you very much." |

| Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election. |
