Unity? Survival?
What do these words really mean?
We have been in communication since Ali in Bunker Fortitude uncovered a series of protocols from a PADD left over from the Network Occupation. These protocols had been corrupted by the Network however at their core they provide a framework for the organisation and management of multiple disparate societies that join together to form a single entity.
Our current Coalition of societies was a great first step, but its not enough. We have significant threats including the Network, Super Mutant Tribes, Hive, and more unknown beyond our current sphere of visibility. We have potential allies in The Office of the Home, AEGIS, and other societies yet un-contacted.
At the moment we put trust in a group of hired mercenaries to advance our knowledge, negotiate diplomacy, research new technology and defeat significant threats (military and other). And the FEF has done amazing things, without this collaboration of minds we would have fallen to any number of threats and challenges.
We are standing on a platform of reform. We need to change and adapt, the FEF protocol was written 500 years ago with a vision of what the future would hold, those people are not living in this reality and its time to move on. We will champion a referendum in both bunkers (and hopefully within the Free People) should we be elected. The intention is simple, form a single society out of the 3 main groups in the Coalition (with the option for currently unaligned groups to join).
One governing body rather than 4 or more, the goal? Not only survive, but thrive. Together we will achieve more than on our own. The positions within government will be open for any member to stand for, not restricted by training or rank, using the same voting system as now, with every member (regardless of location or current allegiance) having a vote.
No doubt this will seem strange, and after many of you have fought, bled and lost for your current homes it might not be an easy future to imagine. But we believe that it represents our best chance for a future.
Vote for us and we will do everything within out power to give you this choice.
We envisage many questions on our idea, we have small teams working in the archives of each bunker (and with DAHL) to work out what we believe the best structure would be. If you would like input in that, we would love to hear from you.
