BIG ANNOUNCEMENTS FROM MFD

Interim party leader Carl Bradley announces the MFD's manifesto and other future plans.
KALIBURG: Today was a big day for the Movement for Democracy as several big announcements were made at a party conference. The first was that esteemed political science professor Dr. Carl Bradley would be serving as interim party leader until the election of a formal leader. Dr. Bradley is 88 has taught political science at Credone University for 53 years. According to sources within the Movement, Dr. Bradley was chosen due to his role as a mentor to several of the founders. Bradley has been active in the democratic movement overall since the rise of UKWF and has been known to make statements against the UKWF. In a speech made after his introduction, Bradley said that "As you all can tell, I am quite old. Because of this I don't expect to serve in this position for long, meaning that we are going to need to elect a full-time leader. In 4676 we will hold a leadership election to decide who the leader of the party shall be and I will not be a candidate in that election. In the meantime, I will focus my efforts towards building a strong organization for our eventual leader so they can begin a campaign for the 4678 elections on a strong footing." When asked about the ongoing protests in the streets against the UKWF, Bradley said "The protests will continue but we will be reorganizing and expanding them in the coming months. This movement will need broad-based support to beat the UKWF." The party's first manifesto was also revealed. It focuses around scaling down government, liberalizing the economy, and secularization. Bradley, who is considered to be a moderate, said that the movement's ideological direction would be further decided by the choice of a leader in the 4676 primary. Once again there was no comment from the UKWF on these announcements, with many beginning to wonder: where is Paul Steele and UKWF?
