York Ready To Throw In The Towel

Vindrus York has today made clear his intentions to retire from the Tománnach political scene only months after rejoining it. He has cited such reasons as wanting to spend more time with his family for the decision. It is thought by this publication that a lot of his decision is based on the fact that due to his own inactivity his party has fallen apart.

Yesterday, Edgard Portela, handed in his notice after learning of Mr. York's recent 'unconstitutional' activities. These activities are based around the NFP leaders' promotion and participation in an unconstitutional legislative body in Mainistir, the county he used to represent in parliament. This has landed him in court with the President taking action on behalf of the Republic. Mr York is still yet to answer the charges. The newly appointed Lord Chief Justice, Kevin Gladstone, has allowed him seven days to respond to the charges.

He has though requested the closure of the NFP forum and the deletion of the NFP archives. He took time in the NFP office to have one final jab at Mr Portela's resignation letter and responded to it saying.

"Portela, goodbye, to be honest, you have done very little for this party to begin with; I had thought you had dropped out of existance weeks ago."

The President leapt to Mr Portela's defence saying of him.

"He came to Talamthom with nothing, attempted to bolster your numbers in the Dáil, got appointed to the role of Governor of Indo-China and then got elected to the position of Head of the Citizens' Council, all whilst you have done nothing whatsoever as a Dáil Minister!!"

At this point it is still unknown as to whether he will still be active from the sidelines, the Citizens' Council or indeed whether he'll go on to apply for a non-partisan position, for example, a job in the Judiciary. Only time will tell.
