Description[?]:

Hundreds of thousands of people across Baltusia have been protesting today against president hare and his Government
These protests have come after controversial bills for segregation, abolishment of civil liberties and the withdrawal from the comprehensive Gay rights Treaty
Among other things 173,000 people alone protested in the capital Against these bills with many calling for the president to resign, one protester who wished to remain Anonymous told us " in all my life never have I seen such a Fascist party in Baltusia they claim to be modern and green but they are clearly not"
Another protester told me she had lost her job when the steelworks she worked in went private " I complained when my pay went down and they refused to pay my house insurance which had been included before and they fired me with a group of what they called "troublemakers" i can't find a job now and if they cut my benefits i might lose my house. The protests have been mostly peaceful so far but there are rumours of mass strike and even Militant groups mobilising, So far there has been no comment from either the government or their allies the Republican Party

MessageOfficial Statement of the President and Commander in Chief, Albert Hare

We respect the people going out into the streets in a peaceful protest. Yet they will not see mercy if this escalates to violence. Furthermore we urge every single person going out in the streets to actually read our proposals! We will NOT segregate any government amenity, that is disgusting. We simply don't want to force the private sector, to do anything really. If they don't want a specific group of people in their establishment, then we should not force them. This is freedom of speech and expression. The only thing really which doesn'd discriminate is capitalism so I don't see either how protesters can go out and protest against both simultaneously. The repeal of the gay rights treaty is returning democracy to our political stage as otherwise any conservative party and voter will struggle to do anything, and we fight for the right of children to have a mother AND a father, hence we oppose single parent adoption as well.

Thank you very much and we hope for a peaceful election night.

MessageBreaking News:

Anti-protesters have risen to protest for "free speech" and for the "Right of Rights". Many youths amongst them which were tired of the lack of a right wing party in Baltusia for years, and which see the green party as "hip, young and and a breath of fresh air in the stale political climate".

Another BGA supporter, Marco Antonio (21) has stated: "I am here because compared to any other president I have seen in my short lifetime, Albert is at least entertaining"

The anti-protesters are currently peaceful, but as they march towards the left demonstration, chanting: "The Right is Green", clashes are expected, but the police is there monitoring the situation.
