It is our pleasure to be the first to bring you the text of a speech made earlier today by Liberal Party leader Jolyon Lloyd-Davies, in an address to key party and government figures:
People of Kemetia, it is my honour to address you as Prime Minister once more. I am speaking to formally announce my candidacy for the post of Prime Minister, and to outline some of the Liberal Party's key policies. I also hope to address the unfounded accusations which have been made regarding the legitimacy of previous elections, and of recent centralisation measures. In order to silence the reactionary agitators responsible for these untruths, I have taken every measure to ensure that the 2009 Prime Ministerial Elections will be the most transparent in our country's history. After intense discussion with His Sovereign Majesty King Adam, it has been agreed that voting will take place online, via Kemetia's Facebook page. This will allow greater security than previous mechanisms, as well as demonstrating my government's commitment to the role "new media" resources will play in our nation's future. Additionally, I am pleased to confirm that the Liberal Party will be making electoral reform a cornerstone of our 2009 campaign; should I be elected once more to the role of Prime Minister, I shall be introducing an "electoral college" system, which would allow for greater representation of our nation's diversity, without undermining the practicality of government. The Liberal Party are not autocrats - we believe firmly in a multipartisan approach to government, and are pround to work with those with other political beliefs. In this spirit, we have supported the appointment of Sir Nicho Kelly as Senior Advisor to His Sovereign Majesty on Economic Policy, and look forward to working with him in the future. Unlike our anti-secessionist adversaries, we remain truly committed to a democratic Kemetia.
As Prime Minister, it has been my great pleasure to assist in Kemetia's formation and expansion over these past years. However, we must not take our success for granted. If reelected, my government will continue to expand Kemetia's presence, especiallyy in the digital sphere. I am particularly excited by the potential of the government's new web portal, which is clearly made vital by the geographically diverse nature of Kemetia. As divided as our nation may seem, we remain united by the revolutionary spirit which is our nation's greatest resource, and it would my great honour to carry this torch into the next decade, and the next phase in our great history.
Raptuous applause greeted the speech, which has quelled the Prime Minister's opponents, and has caused some within the Liberal Party to question the legitimacy of the 'opposition movement' these critics claim to represent. One party figure, who remained anonymous for fear of reprisals by opposition militias, said that "the Prime Minister has extended a hand of friendship to these dissenters, and if they choose to reject this offer, that would surely indicate their treasonous intentions".
