TRANSMISSION TARGET:Public Band, Sirius Wide SUBJECT:News For The Working Class!!
We bid you a humble and sincere greeting, as we broadcast our message to you for the very first time, good people of the Sirius Sector!
We are very excited to have you as our audience this morning! Today is an important day for us, you see? Never before have we been able to reach such a wide audience, now though, we can share with you the news that is most important!
We will share in future broadcasts, news regarding those Valiant warriors, the Heroes of the Revolutionary Army who risk their lives every day fighting for you, whether you realize it or not!
We will also teach you of our Cause -- The struggle for YOUR Freedoms and Liberties, the struggle for TRUE Social Equality and the struggle for Liberation from Corporate Serfdom!
Additionally, we will also cover a wide variety of topics related to current events and general happenings...for example, today in our inaugural broadcast, we'll be revealing a two day forecast for the weather on Planet Volgograd -- The Coalition's Glorious Capitol Planet, and the seat of power for our Great Premier-Commandante, Ms. Katya Vaschenko!
Starting with today:
12/3/819: Temperatures this morning were as low as -73 degrees Fahrenheit outside the domes, remaining at a crisp 0 degrees on the surface within, and a cozy 25 degrees throughout most of the subterranean warrens. Later this afternoon, temperatures are expected to rise as high as 50 degrees inside the domes, so don't dress too heavily for work! Tonight, the temperature inside the domes is expected to remain somewhere around 30 degrees, it's that time of year to dig out those extra blankets at night, dear Comrades!
12/4/819: Tomorrow we're looking at a cold front coming up from the south pole, bringing heavy snow that's expected to last from mid-morning throughout the day, possibly letting up briefly in the evening. It sounds like the Labor Corps will have quite a day ahead of them, if you're a member of the Labor Corps, do remember to tuck your pants into your boots...being slowed because of snow in your boots isn't an excuse that your otherwise friendly "Supervisor" will want to hear...ha ha ha!
Temperatures tomorrow are expected to remain in the low teens, both on the surface and down in the warrens, well into the evening.
My dear Comrades, you might consider redeeming some of your Social Credit points in exchange for winter coats or an extra pair of gloves, you never know when they'll come in handy, and our friendly Distribution Center staff are ALWAYS glad to help a citizen in need!!
We hope that those of you outside of Omega-52, joining us for the first time, have enjoyed our broadcast, be sure to tune in next time for more from our home! This is the Volgograd News Agency, going off the air!

"With our glorious Premier-Commandante taking a well-earned break from leading our glorious Nation, Vice-Premier Meier has stood up to manage the Coalition's affairs in her stead.
Comrade Meier has gotten off to a grand start with the announcement of the new and bold plan to clean up the Omega-5 Debris Field that most used to regard as a symbol of the Coalition's might, his reasoning for cleaning up this field is reported to be that the Coalition's been overlooking a valued resource in the terms of raw metal that could've easily been melted down and re-used by the Coalition in various projects but was blocked by slothful members of the State Duma of the old order, however Vice-Premier Meier has taken action to not only clear this navigational hazard but to re-use it in the name of the Coalition as a national resource.
In other news, clean-up of Planet JiangXi is going well, over 400 Kilometers of arable land has been cleaned up for use in a future project, the State Duma will be releasing information soon in a public release soon, as many know, Planet JiangXi was bombarded by the former terrorist organization known as 'The Phantoms' which damaged much of the ecosystem, under the Katz Policy the clean-up of the planet has been steady, working outwards from untouched settlements and re-claiming land previously lost in the flames of strato-bombing.
Also Researchers on Mykolaiv Station has hinted of a possible survey-mission to the previously un-explored Gas Giant of Odessa which Mykolaiv orbits, while researchers hope to find new resources they also are eager to learn more about the Gas Giant's formation and how it came to be. When asked about rumours of technology being researched from the Gas Miner near Sevastopol Depot the Director of the Station said that if there was indeed any technology being researched it was classified for reasons of National Security"

As always you can rely upon Volgograd Industrial to continue to create products for the future, but you can also rest assured that there will BE a future with us doing our part to ensure a green environment for your children and their children."

"The Revolutionary Army has struck a severe blow to Rheinland Infiltrators within Bretonia, earlier today, the Coalition People's Warship 'Lithuania' was on a patrol within the home of our trusted ally, The Republic of Dublin who are also known in Bretonia as the Mollys , they had a skirmish with what appeared to be a member of the Rheinland Military. According to our sources, the Cruiser was spotted near the Independent Miner's Guild base 'The Hood', they tracked it to the Omega-49 Jumphole and managed to intercept it before it could flee into the Omega Systems and close to our home.
Due to inept flying and the Lithuania having the element of surprise on their side, the Rheinland Cruiser was crippled and it's crew forced to abandon ship, the Lithuania returned to Omega-52 in triumph with it's passenger, General Ben Warner (retired) who praised the actions of Captain NIkita Tabakov as a step in the right direction against Rheinland Imperialism. It is unclear if Bretonia was aware of the infiltrator or the Republic of Dublin, but the people of both Dublin and the Coalition itself can rest easier now that one less threat is on their doorstep.

"Greetings Citizens of the People's Republic...t-this is Ilyana Petrovic...coming to you live, outside the gates of the Kremlin complex..."
The camera pans around the area showing massive crowds of people being blocked by heavily armed and armored soldiers, lining the snow-covered sidewalks on the street opposite the tall metal fences which mark the perimeter of the Coalition Kremlin complex. As the camera zoomed in it was clear that the people in the crowd were not some angry mob, but rather a massive gathering of people sobbing in an almost hysterical manner.
As the camera panned back around toward the reporter and she began to speak, even her own expression was a sullen one, and her tone shaky, this news clearly wasn't going to be good.
"We...my dear comrades, we at VNA have just learned that our Great Premier-Commandante, Hero of The Revolution, and Savior of The People's Republic -- Katya Vaschenko, has...announced her resignation as head of state, during a meeting with military leaders and Duma ministers..."
Ilyana stops speaking for a moment, wiping tears from her face and trying to regain her composure before continuing.
"As many of you know, Tovarisch Vaschenko came to power in the wake of the failed Coup D'Etat, launched by the traitorous and counter-revolutionary infiltrator known as Aloysius Rhade. It was Premier-Commandante Vaschenko herself, who led The Coalition Marine Corps in a decisive action to take back this very complex, and save Former Premier Alvin Katz from the clutches of Rhade and his Counter-revolutionary forces.
It seems as though despite the fact that Tovarisch Vaschenko stepped up to lead our Glorious Nation, and to ensure that order was maintained in the wake of the Coup, she sees herself unfit to serve us as Premier, opting instead to step back into her former role as General of The Revolutionary Marine Corps..."
Ilyana paused again, looking down as though deeply distraught, tears in her eyes as she looked back to the camera, an almost angered look on her face as she launched into a quick-tongued mini-tirade.
"Vaschenko is surely a true patriot! A loyal citizen-soldier of The People's Republic! To know that the best way for her to serve us is on the field of battle, and not as a politician! She truly desires to be a Defender Of The Revolution, a Soldier of The People! She is truly a great woman, a great Party Member, to see her own limitations and wish to improve the situation of her own volition!"
Ilyana looked away from the camera again for a moment, coughing and wiping her face as she looked back.
"I...I apologize, comrades...it is just that, like the crowd across the street, the resignation of our Great Savior has truly affected me...and like them, It makes me truly wary when we lose such a great Hero, but have faith! Our Party will not lead us astray, Tovarisch Vaschenko has made sure of that...and as she will retain command over Our Glorious Marine Corps, I know that we will be safe, no matter what!!!"
Ilyana again adjusted her composure, brushing hair from her face and straightening out her outfit as she spoke once more.
"As many of you have assumed by now...Tovarisch Vaschenko's resignation means that our Loyal Vice Premier -- Erik Meier, will likely take over as Premier of The People's Republic. We at Volgograd News Agency are sure that he will serve us well, and that he will likely continue to value Tovarisch Vaschenko's opinion in the coming months...this is truly a momentous occasion none-the-less! Not only does this mark the first peaceful power transfer in our Glorious Republic since the old times, it also marks the end of the reign of our first woman Premier! These are surely interesting times, but again, do not lose faith, and do not doubt that our Glorious Party will continue to lead us wll!"
Ilyana gives a stern salute toward the camera as it begins to fade to black.
"As the story develops, we will continue to bring you updates, this is Ilyana Petrovic, Loyal citizen of The People's Republic, signing off!!"

"Earlier this past month, the Revolutionary Army's High Command has debated on the topic of renaming the Coalition People's Warship 'Hammer' to something more contemporary with the Sirius Coalition's past, the name chosen was none other than the Coalition's greatest mind in the last 100 years, Doctor XiaoBei.
The re-christened Coalition People's Warship 'XiaoBei' will receive it's official name in a ceremony conducted by Colonel Nikita Tabakov later today, the Battleship is set to conduct a full tour of Coalition Space in Omega-52 and Omega-50. It is the hope that this name will remind the people of the Coalition of the great heroes of it's past and how we all should strive towards when considering how we may best serve our Nation.
News comming soon: JiangXi Turkeys, Killer Mutants or Potential Resource? We will find out when we meet with the JiangXi Reclamation Authority and what their official stance is on the matter, so don't go away!"

Attention!
"Citizens of the Coalition, I bring important information from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Plenty which concerns all citizens.
Due to the ever-ongoing war with the entities who are hostile to our cause such as the 'Kingdom of Gallia' or the terrorist organization known only as the 'Reapers of Sirius', the Ministry of Plenty is attempting to keep the flow of resources going as to fuel our Manufacturing Facilities all across our glorious Nation.
However the need for materials required in the use of electronics and engine components is at an all new level of requirement in order to meet the minimal level of production as set forth by the Ministry of War in their projections of future supply-demand to both our defensive lines and offensive expeditions out of the Omega Systems.
All citizens involved with the war effort such as those in Volgograd Industrial's Manufacturing Facilities and the Mining Division are requested to put in extra hours in order to meet quotas in order to preserve our society and ensure that our forces continue to be well supplied. A well-supplied Army is a successful Army.
Furthermore, citizens who wish to apply to Volgograd Industrial or the Revolutionary Army are encouraged to do so in this time of crisis, the Coalition only survives through the patriotic labours of your fellow men and women who prevent the outside hordes from laying waste to what we have built here in our People's Republic.
The Ministry of Truth will be providing updates on the war effort as it continues. The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Plenty thank citizens who have already pledged extra hours in their work-places as well as those who have joined the Revolutionary Army."
We must all Fight for Victory!
