Idealistoni independence protests (IC/invite-only/post-MT)

[Idealiston]

Despite a majority supporting Sharifistani rule in all ethnic groups except Irish Idealistonis and Idealistoni Jews, a minority of Idealistonis are protesting for Idealistoni independence. These protestors are gathered outside the Governor-Generals' Office in Nua Dublin protesting for independence. The protestors are a combination of Idealistoni nationalists and Irish nationalists, many are also feminists. They are disproportionately female and without university educations though few are from the poorest 10%.The protests are being kept peaceful by the Royal Gendarmerie including Mounted Police.

The protestors, carrying signs with such slogans as "Never take the Sultanate's shilling", "One law for us and one for the Sharifistani soldier" and "our daughters are NOT bargaining chips!", insult Idealistoni policemen at work at Governor Generals' Office by calling them "cowards" and traitors".

An Irish-Idealistoni policeman crossed himself, "Jesus, Mary and all the saints protect me from this rabble." he said in an Irish accent, getting out his baton just in case he needs it later.

"I am a member of Nua Dublin Council, I served in the police force for 30 years, mostly in the Specialist Tactical Unit. I received a medal for rescuing a child from a hostage-taker in 1979 and reached the rank of Captain in 1990. I joined the independence protests after the imposition of direct rule but the cracks began to show when they impose policies favourable to them at the expense of our wives and children! Designed to increase power for them!" he said

"Who is 'them'?"

"The Sharifistani imperial government, from the Prince-Regent right down to the taxman." he said as his supporters cheered, the same Irish-Idealistoni policeman walked to near enough distance to observe him.

I did, I did, and why do you show up as an ex-nation?

The Chief of Police of Idealiston calls him "an irresponsible racist coward." and says "Sharifistani soldiers are the force that protects our colony against attacks. They conduct themselves with great gentleness at home and fiercely fight our enemies abroad."

"What did I say that's racist or cowardly?" he asks.

"Praising the racists that support these protests due to political cowardice and a cowardly fear of the other, in this case our Sharifistani benefactors, they stopped us from being occupied by our enemies, they protect our wives and children as well as our freedom, lives and property. "
OOC: Sharifistan and Idealiston are in a different canon from Ideal Britain as Ideal Britain is meant to be closer to real life.
