Bombing in Syndney!
Last night, hundreds of witnesses saw a bombing last night in Sydney, at the Australian Democratic Party Headquarters. Witnesses reported seeing a fleet of trucks, apparently with australian communist flags, run into the headquarters, and burst in flames. Hospitals are estimating that 700 have died or are missing, and the Australian democratic party is shocked. It seems that the communists have attempted to make a message right before the elections. The Australian public is shocked, and realise that even they are not safe, across the oceans in their own isolated continent. It seems that the Australian people are not safe from their own communist party, who were gained so much freedom in the elections, but have now killed hundreds of innocents. More reports to come as details are still flooding in.
The Australian Nationalist Party makes Statement
Today, in a press conference, Australian Nationalist Party Leader William Calvert denounced the Communists and called for tigher security measures on these 'terrorists':
"Dear members of the Australian public, today we have seen tragic news across our nation. It seems, that the communists, who we let participate in our free elections, have decided to abuse these rights and destroy innocent lives.
The Nationalist Party has suspected this of the communists for a very long time. We have suspected that they were planning to strike, and WE have suspected that they were traitors to the Australian Republic. We ask you, the Australian public, to decide in these elections, who will run your country, the communist terrorists, the weak labour party, the puppet democrats, or the Australian Nationalist Party. We assure you, that if we are elected, we will legislation to stop these acts from ever happening again, and we will protect our nation from falling to these evil terrorists."
The Australian Parliament holds Elections
The Australian parliament, unhinged by the bombings of yesterday, held their elections as planned, and rounded out, the results are shocking:
The Australian Nationalist Party: 60 %
The Australian Labour Party: 20 %
The Australian Conservative Party: 15 %
The Australian Communist Party: 5 %
It seems, after their daring statement, that the Nationalists have siezed power because of their promises to curb terrorism and communist influence. What will come of this, we have yet to see..
The Subsequent Communist Statement
Communist leader Henry McMullin speaks out:
"Do not believe these nationalist lies, they are just doing this to gain influence in vote! We denounce any involvement in these terrorist acts, and we point at the Nationalists. The Communist party believes that THEY are the ones to stage this attack, and we declare that they should be arrested, and that a recall would be most beneficial to our nation, we must stop these facists from gaining power!"
These declarations are being laughed at, and even now, legislation is being written up against the communists. The Labour Party, meanwhile, accept their defeat at the nationalists, and hope that these terrorist acts never happen again, although several Labour members have denounced the nationalist majority, saying that they are nothing but facists.
More to come soon on all these startling events.
