COALITION AGREEMENT WITH BUMSENLAND
Kurtland's leader Kurt Purdon, officially released yesterday that a coaliton agreement has been formed with Bumsenland. Hundreds protested outside the government chambers today claiming that The Kurtish Republic has a 'dictatorial iron fist' over the rest of the region, aided by the 'socialist' Bumsenland. Due to the unpopular 'freedom of speech' law which was passed a few months ago, the protests may go ahead in a civilised manner as long as it doesn't disturb traffic and they are actively supervised police. Under the new coaliton, The Kurtish Republic and Bumsenland now have direct power over the rest of the region. - KRPA*
