Prime Minister Begins Weekend Visit to Ceorana

New Boston, Ceorana - The Prime Minister, Geraint Llewelyn has begun his visit of Ceorana after arriving in New Boston. He is expected to discuss economic and diplomatic ties. It is unknown if any major announcements will be delivered, although a joint press conference is a distinct possibility.

Protests

Meanwhile, Aberystwyth has seen several days of protests supportive and antagonistic to the decision by the Government to lend Ceorana its support in the Regional Delegacy Elections. Most of the demonstrations have proven to be peaceful and well organised. However, last night pro-Groot Gouda and pro-Ceorana groups clashed in the streets, damaging vehicles and shops. Three protestors were taken to hospital, and the police made 22 arrests. Leaders from both sides have urged restraint

Leadership Challenges Denied

In a related note, spokesmen for the Chancellor have denied the rumours that he is seeking to challenge the PM for leadership of the Third Way. When the PM sided with Ceorana, rumours immediately surfaced that the Chancellor was so incensed he would seek to topple the Prime Minister. However, political experts believe that now that several days have passed the threat to Llewelyn has also similarly died down. Moreover, the Chancellor is getting a first-hand look at leading the executive; when the Prime Minister is away, the Chancellor leads in his absence. A close personal friend of the Chancellor believes this experience has been sobering for the Chancellor.
