Calamity and tragedy has struck New Englia as Prime Minister Gabriel Rogers of the Social Democratic Worker's Party has been assassinated just a few days ago, in Lonmouth. The late Rogers was intending to hold a rally as efforts were going to be made to push drastic healthcare reform through Parliament, and Rogers felt that securing stronger public support would ensure more MPs vote in favour of the bill. Unfortunately, during the rally, a gunman who's identity is yet to be known shot Rogers fatally. While he was rushed to a hospital quickly, he would eventually succumb to his wounds. This has lead to Mark MacGannon being sworn in as Prime Minister in a time of turmoil.
While this would've been assumed as just an ideological attack, it seems that the far-right Inglian nationalist, Inglian Fatherland Front has claimed responsibility, denouncing Rogers as a traitor to the country. This has shaken public faith in stability, and shaken the faith of Kilani's sympathetic to the SDWP, such as the Republican Socialist Party, which has lost confidence in the abilities of the current government to enact proper reforms. This has left many confused, scared and worried as the IFF has presented a clear threat to stability. Prime Minister MacGannon has sworn to dismantle the IFF but it's clear that he lacks the charisma Rogers had, with moderates in the CNP and the entirety of the SPP denouncing the claim, believing that it'll only incite further violence or even be a Kilani led attack on Inglians. The RSP in turn has denounced those claims from the right, claiming that if the government fails to deliver justice, then the Kilani must do so themselves, even if it involves militancy.
This of course has lead to many questioning the stability of the country as while it mourns Rogers, it also is full of fear as many simply want stability and reform. Whatever the case, troublesome times are looming and depending on how MacGannon handles the IFF, and the rising tensions, they may escalate or dissolve.
