NO MORE PROTESTS!
The mining riots have ended after the Parliament passed new labor laws.

---

ANNISTRAIL - Yesterday, the sanction of the new URANIUM LABOR ACT by the Parliament finally put and end to the uranium riots led by unscrupulous unions. "The new law is a step forward into the future: what Annistrail needs to attract foreign investors and secure it's earnings and the creation of thousand of jobs in the following years", said Sterling Bonher, Chancellor of Annistrail to the media as he walked away from the record-breaking session of Parliament that took more than fifteen hours to finally sanction the last draft of the uranium law.

"We agree with Mr. Bonher on this one" said Marshall Webster, leader of the far-right Crown Party and then added "we need strong industries and we need to give investors the guarantees they need to be able to thrive in our country. Relaxing labor laws was paramount, and now we put an end to the extortion by the unions". Webster had been one of the fiercest defenders of the law, even more than the author himself.

"This is outrageous! This new law is an attack on the stability and quality of jobs in the uranium sector" said Clint Ewart, leader of the Progressive Party and Shadow-Chancellor "this is the triumph of money over people and the environment." he added. After being questioned about why the unions stopped the protest if the law was so bad he replied "Because they were fired the second this law was passed! And their colleagues are afraid to speak up because they know they will be next if they say something!". One thing is certain: the uranium industry is more profitable than ever, and the new site found in Mount Greenthorn could probably bring millions of dollars and jobs to the nation.

URANIUM AGREEMENT SIGNED
The Government sold the Uranium Mining rights to the Aspari Syndicate

---

ANNISTRAIL - Yesterday, the Government led by Chancellor Sterling Bonher signed the Concession Agreement with The Aspari Syndicate, a nation well known for their serious take on business and their great sense of profit. The agreement came as a relief to the conservative-led Government, which was struggling to find investors on the uranium deposit at the base of Mount Greenthorn.

The Government had hurried the sanction of the Uranium Labor Act just to foster investments and show it's good will to foreign entrepreneurs, and the Opposition was not only criticizing the Government for the decision, but also for their lack of results. Now the Progressive Opposition found that strategy to be a double edged sword, because the signing of the contract just before the elections gave the Conservative party some much-needed air in the elections, in which they ended in first place. The Progressive Party, on the other hand, lost eleven seats of Parliament to the Worker's Party because of their failed strategy.

"No comments, I've got a lot of work to do to make this country great, and the deal with the Aspari Syndicate is the first step to achieve that goal" said a smiling Chancellor Sterling Bonher to the press as he entered the Parliament to give his second inauguration speech. It was clear the Chancellor didn't even need to say anything to profit from the defeat of the Progressive Party's Skepticism.

The Aspari Syndicate, meanwhile, has started the preliminary work on the Uranium Mine and the Government Officials are showing them the site and features of the Area.
