El Parti Maxhorità Trei Unpopular
Platform per la Cosa 40-l:t
---------------
The Really Unpopular Majority Party
Platform for the 40th Cosa We RUMPers, you know, we don't do manifestos. Platforms suit us much better, and so.... The RUMP's "Choose a Really Appropriate Platform" [CRAP] committee has made its long-awaited report, and in a surprise move, it has recommended (and the recommendation has been accepted by party leadership) that for the 40th Cosa, two, yes, two RUMP platforms be adopted by the party. These are proudly displayed below in their Talossan red and green. All of the RUMP's "Party Organizers Overseeing a Province" [POOPs] are hereby encouraged to campaign with this platform (or any other they can think of) and God willing the RUMP will prevail. And if Terry the Magical Unicorn and jetpacks aren't enough to convince the electorate, here is some more campaign rhetoric from the RUMP: - If elected, we will free all the Talossan slaves!
- Taco Bell stimulus packages for everyone who has the money to buy one!
- Rhubarb, rhubarb, rhubarb!
- Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
Vote RUMP. Because if Squirrels are Outlawed, only Outlaws will have Squirrrels! Vote RUMP. We have nothing to fear but the PP itself. And those FGP guys. And then, well, dang. Wow. It is kinda scary out there, isn't it? Vote RUMP. Because after all, are you better off now than you were four years ago? I mean, honestly, were you even Talossan four years ago? Vote RUMP. If you can read this, thank a RUMPer. Vote RUMP. Not a single Canadian ever has. Prove you're better than every single Canadian! Vote RUMP. Don't change Horsemen in mid-Apocalypse! Vote RUMP. For any other reason you can think of. It's up to you, really. It's a free country. I'm not gonna do your thinking for you. Sheesh. |

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Classic. Simply Classic. The FGP throws it's support behind he RUMP and then withdraws. |

I'm determined to tone my glutes, but I will NEVER lose my RUMP!
Vote RUMP. Keep Talossans smiling while simultaneously moaning.

I would assume that he is still the Seneschal, as he was appointed by His Majesty to that position.

In brief, he is still Seneschal. In a broader sense, how that all operates is a bit of a grey area - I'd need to do some research and revision, but it may be the case that, even if the RUMP did officially withdraw their support from his government, it wouldn't fall, as the Cosa wouldn't have dissolved itself on a NON VOC.
(Should probably be rectified if that is the case, insomuch as there's a significant period between the end of a Cosa and the end of an election allowing the formation of a new Cosa-backed government - imagine what one of Ben's cronies might have done during such a period.)

M:sr Ventrutx is still the Seneschal and nothing but his own resignation or a vote of no confidence by the Cosa or (as we're about to see) a new General Election leading to a new appointment by the king can take him from the office. Certainly a party change does not impact his office.

You're welcome, though it was an agreement with an underlying "I don't see anything that needs to be rectified" disagreement built in.
