Hello and welcome. We've just now arrived MOD Whitehall, the "brains" of the Bretonian military and the place we'll be reporting from today as expectations run high for major changes to be put into place after several months of stabilizing the frontier to Dublin.
With Sirius glancing on after several months spent by the Crown in relative diplomatic isolation as the Armed Forces worked around the hour to stabilize the way to Dublin by imposing a blockade around the jump hole and nearby gas fields, there is a need for careful steps ahead, both on the economic front and the military one.
There is an almost unanimous opinion amongst Bretonian political parties that Dublin must be retaken regardless of cost. In particular, however, recent weeks have seen a push by the Crown Royalists for major reforms in defence, with some even saying that "those do not wish to see through reforms, now, when the Mollys are on the backfoot, should be considered traitors". Indeed, these talks may have had some success thus far, as both the MoD and the Armed Forces have stepped up efforts to improve tactical operations but have also went out to recall many former cadres from the 830 and pre-830 Admiralty Board, MoD Board and their respective aides and analysists.
Above all, lays the question of how the Foreign Office will manage the clearly split opinion on Dublin -- ranging from accepting a ceasefire to taking on a major military operation in Dublin -- and push for further support from the Colonies.
As my colleague has already stated, the current priorities are on strengthening the core of the military and intelligence service through the recalling of past important cadres in either the Ministry of Defence or Armed Forces. One such person, presiding over the meeting here today as one of the military's spokespersons is the former Vice-Chief of the Defence Staff, Mr. Wigston Archibald, now returned to being a Captain rank in the BAF.
He has also served briefly as a military attache to the Crayter Republic, arguing firmly in favor of military action against the various bands of raiders residing on the few populated bases in the system. Now, he has been appointed as the working brain behind a smaller-scale military operation concerning Dublin -- at large due to his experience around Inverness and Coronado.
Speaking in private with us just before the meeting, Mr. Wigston has said that while he "cannot guarantee" that the way into Dublin will be one easy to clear out, he has "full confidence in the MoD" that there will be seriously considering all options available, hinting at the possibility of cooperation with Kusari's corporations due to their recent advances in technology but also at increasing the number of contracts with Liberty's trusted provider of ammunitions, Detroit Munitions.
After just over two hours, the meeting has come to an end. Although the MoD and BAF spokespersons made grand promises, it remains to be seen how and if these will materialize.
The BBC team will work around the hour to provide a detailed update on all matters discussed over the course of the meeting, from the military changes brought in to facilitate a better response to the Dublin crisis, to the economic measures to be taken in the coming weeks and months.
