Toivo Meri has seemingly launched a political thermonuclear missile, and fired his own Minister of Justice Krista Vītoliņa. Today she was sacked by the Prime Minister Toivo Meri. This comes after she has been the very public face of the Ministry of Justice, and has launched investigations into the conduct of the Prime Minister, and been actively pushing back against his attempts to subvert justice.

The decision came in the early hours of the morning with a leak that the Prime Minister was demanding the resignation of Krista Vītoliņa, or he would fire her, which is a constitutional power of the Prime Minister. She refused and thus, at 9 am local time, she was officially sacked as Dolgava's Justice Minister.

The Prime Minister was immediately lambasted from all sides, with allies of Vītoliņa calling for the Prime Minister to go. However despite this, most in the Conservative Party, back the PM, and support him, because if he goes, that would mean a near certain election loss for the party as a whole.

For the Opposition Leader Bonaventūra Krauze, it was a "slap in the face" and she is calling for his immediate removal saying that he is "dragging our country into lawlessness..."

Soon afterwards, at noon, Krista Vītoliņa spoke to the media in a tearful press conference saying she was retiring from politics, and that she was "extremely disappointing" by the actions of the Prime Minister. She said that she devoted her life to serving the people of Dolgava, and upholding justice, and that she will not devote her life to taking care of her children.

More and more Dolgavans are getting fed up with Toivo Meri, with protests now being lined up to take place for the next two weeks. The protestors will be demanding he goes.

In a press conference today, Toivo Meri, said that the investigations and such were a massive "witch-hunt", and that the Dolgavan people voted for a stable government, and that "There are many inside of government and in the opposition sowing the seeds of chaos and discord".

The Dolgavan Prime Minister is seemingly clinging to power, as he and his party falls. However he is clearly going to sidestep democracy in exchange for holding onto power as long as possible. It is a dangerous position for Dolgava to be in...
