A Personal Manifesto

IT'S ELECTION TIME!

So I have a manifesto of my own.

The "dole" is now £170 per week.
The minimum wage for 16-25 year olds is £12 an hour, above 25 it is £17 an hour.
Non-violent offenders can plant trees instead of going to prison.
Full-time students are entitled to Housing Benefit and can "sign on" over the summer period.
Fees for all universities and private schools are to be capped at £8000 a year.
Trident will not be renewed.
There is to be a referendum on building new nuclear power stations.
Restrictions on on-shore wind farms will now be ended and new schools and hospitals will have solar panels on their roofs.
The Army and MI6 will be abolished.

Q both created and manipulated the Borg. They/He did this in order to prevent the version of the Federation in the Mirror Mirror universe from coming to power. Without the Borg , the events of Star Trek:First Contact would never have happened and the United Federation of Planets would become the Terran Empire. The Borg also made an alliance between long-time Federation adversaries the Romulan Star Empire. This allowed the Borg to invade Federation space by passing through Romulan space (the first time round) and is the reason for the Enterprise-E being ordered to the Romulan border in Star Trek:First Contact .

For example the anime often shows a realistic globe of the Earth or a view from space with identifiable continents. But a map of the "Dragon World" is slightly askew. This perhaps lends to two completely bonkers theories: Dragon World is basically Arda (as in Middle Earth, Hobbits and shit) or Planetos (as in Wars of the Roses, continent-sized empires, dragons!)

The map often given is reminiscent of that of "Planetos". The reason a fantasy world maybe set in the distant past of Earth is to do with those titular dragon balls. This is also why the world is also so apparently depopulated. ...

This doesn't reall...
