Northumbria bans video games

[Nationalist Northumbria]

The newly-independent Northumbria has banned video games after President Alvin Ashleigh signed an executive order announcing it. Throughout the country video games and Steam accounts are being confiscated, while statisticians are reporting a 10,000% increase in teenagers playing outside. Ashleigh has already declared the move a 'huge success', but government proposals to ban 'nonsense daytime television' have been quickly shot down after the Association of Northumbrian Grandmas threatened to go on strike if they were implemented.

Theresa May says this “shows the deeply controlling nature of the Northumbrian state.”

She also says “I wonder why Alvin Ashleigh is so interested in what young boys get up to.” as a form of political smear.

Labour and the Liberal Democrats (rightly) condemn her slander of Alvin Ashleigh.

OOC: I know Alvin Ashleigh is completely innocent of what Theresa May is insinuating.

Northumbrian Condemnation


The Foreign Affairs office of CANZUK has been approved to write this condemnation of Northumbria.

Northumbria has proven time and time again that it can't treat it's own citizens and the international community fairly. It's invasion of Denmark has already shocked the world with many nations assisting the innocent Denmark but now it has damaged the video game industry with this unjust move. If these types of moves continue, heavy action will have to be used to prevent a dictatorship.

In conclusion, Northumbria has proven to be a threat to all and due to this, all trade with Northumbria is being banned and a naval blockade will come into effect immediately. CANZUK hopes the international community will follow in our steps, for a safer, free world.

"If our overboss tried that shit on our turf, council would just veto the law and recommend the overboss some rest. You dudes, really would wanna rethink that move. Young dudes without one of their prime passtimes, might get bored and antsy, and start to ask some inconvenient questions to the government and president. We condemn that, but we ain't gonna impose the sanctions, cause this chipmunk Alvin just shot himself in the leg with this stupid law, which is probably gonna be hardly even enforced. Riots, international reputation and trade damage... prepare for the consequences, chipmunk!"-Sky Reaver statement.

[Velosia]

Never has His Majesty's Government been so irrationally enraged by the domestic dealings of a foreign power. The government and people of Velosia condemn you and your authoritarian actions with the utmost severity.

We wish to make it known that His Majesty's Royal Velosian Air Force shall, effective immediately, begin the mass dropping of gaming PCs and hard copies of the most popular video games over the most densely populated areas of your nation. Should these tactics prove ineffective, we may even resort to adding consoles and casual games, such as Fortnite, to these drops in an effort to demoralise the Northumbrian authorities.

We stand behind the basement-dwelling, slightly-socially-awkward citizens of Northumbria.

You, sir, have made an enemy of Velosia for life!

[Meretica]

Mereticans stare blankly at Northumbria and just... blandly nod... because why would anyone do this? Or why would anyone try and change laws that don't affect them? To Meretica, it's an odd position to take, and Meretica encourages the rest of the world to take a more... realistic stance on things.... but generally speaking... it's just really weird.

This shouldn't be in international incidents

well, given how much people are reacting.
don't go insult games around a bunch of gamers.

[Ideal Britain]

American video games companies lobby Congress to prohibit arms sales to Northumbria along with military cooperation. In addition, the Libertarian Party (along with some libertarian Republicans) are advocating for America to “liberate” Northumbria with the aid of it’s military.
