My name is Tony Weckström, Ambassador to the Republic of Finland.
If it so please the Squirrel King of Arms, I request the assistance of the College in designing and obtaining arms for myself and my lawful heirs.
My favourite colours are: red, blue, white and black. I would prefer to have some sort of lion, or other animal, such as a cougar, or a unicorn on the arms.Azul S:reu Weckström - As your Squirrel King at Arms, I stand by my previous remarks that the Royal Talossan College of Arms is ready, willing and able to assist you with your achievement. You should have received at least three e-mails from me with instructions on the next steps. I have seen messages from at least two other members of the College asking you about your intentions. As far as I know, this posting is the first response from you since you deleted your original request. As you know, the College of Arms is known for standing on ceremony and precedent. We must ask you to post a legitimate request in the College-approved standard and proper form. With great regards, we remain your obedient servants, -- Jaune Sabre Herald, Squirrel King at Arms

To the College of Arms,
after I had succesfully completed the application process for the request for Arms, it somehow got lost on the info super highway of the internet???
In any case, could you please make it a priority at this point, as I am soon about to open the Kingdom's official Embassy website in the Republic of Finland.
Kind regards,
Tony Weckström

Dear Sir; I fear that religion and politics have always had an pugnacious consanguinity throughout history. Rome's Pope... etc... Hopefully here we'll not need to officially separate the state from the Church (or of one's' belief) Having read about satanism in University, it is indeed quite fascinating how some satanists deny the existence of God, but still embrace the theory that Satan, or Lucifer, God's favourite angel was cast out of heaven after the War in Heaven... Not to ramble... but perhaps those that are Talossan officials, should not take part of this affair in religion, as it would somehow condone one religion over another (in someone's mind)... Kind regards, Tony WeckströmRoyal Ambassador to Finland As a practicing Satanist, ones such as myself always fear the political consequences of such groups. the TCF would not bother me if I knew for a fact that it would not influence people's politics. edit: grammar |

If this 'Fellowship' will start, I assume it has the approval of the government or King, and if so, I hope it will not in any way create any trouble between the Christian faith and other faiths. I myself am a catholic, and would most likely join - if it is an approved action for a member of the Cosa, an Ambassador and by Talossan law. Kind regards, Tony WeckströmWould anyone else be interested in forming a Christian fellowship, for discussion, friendship and Christian lightbulb jokes? I suggest the title "Poor Fellows of St Christopher" (PFC), as we are all poor travellers in a common cause! |

People! Those citizens of you, whom do not belong to a political party, please consider joining the DPD. We have just won 16 seats in the Cosa, and need YOU to serve! 15 seats are available, as the First seat naturally goes to the Party's founder. Please join!

The Russian Government has no legal right to tell the British Council to close it's doors. The British Council is registered in Russia, pays taxes, and it is protected by the Vienna Convention and other international laws. The actions of Russia is as it was before; "to be respected, it must be feared"... This is the mentality, and the clear actions it is taking again. The FSB is the former KGB - extremely feared by all Russians. Now taking into account, that most of the staff at the British Council in Russia are Russian nationals, it is clear harassment by the FSB to question them into the night about their habits, or even how their pets are doing, and telling them that their work for the British Council is illegal. The Russian Ambassador to the United Kingdom has been called to the Foreign Office to answer for this - what the answers will be, we will see in the near future. Her Majesty's Ambassador to Russia was already at Russia's Foreign Office to extend his country's condemnation to the actions of Russia. The UK could just as easily expel Cultural Attachés from Russian Consulates and the Embassy in the UK - but it won't, as it follows international law, and respects that law - unlike the Russians are doing in this matter. As Talossa's Ambassador to Finland, the neighboring country to Russia, I would ask the official opinion of the Talossan government in this issue - do we condone the actions of the Russians, or condemn them like nearly all other countries have? Kind regards, Tony WeckströmCorrect me if I'm wrong, but when the Council was given orders by Russia to close its doors, it remained open -- after it was commanded to close by the Russian government. I don't think the Council (a private establishment) consulted the British government on their decision to remain open. With the tense relations between Russian and Britain already, I wonder if it was wise for the Council to not act on the orders given by their host country. If they "legally" produced orders to ensure that the Council close up shop, then wouldn't it be "illegal" for them to continue their work after given those orders? Again, I'm not an expert on this by any means, my info just came from a BBC interview. I still don't think harassment of any sort should be condoned, if that is what the FSB are, in fact, doing. Just wondering if I don't have all the facts. Aspra aka Mollie |

Dear Sir, I believe it to be very important for the political parties to involve themselves in these affairs. It is one way of showing the party's political line in the matter. It is just as important as individuals showing their views, and other institutions, agencies, governments etc... Kind regards, Tony WeckströmIs it really necessary for individual parties to start condemning things like this? |

The DPD strongly condemns the actions of the Russian Government to harass and scare local British Council workers, by having them "interviewed" by the FSB (formerly KGB), which still scares the local Russian people, working with or for the British Council in Russia, for example claiming that the British Council's work in Russia is "illegal"!!! The DPD calls upon all nations, the UN, the EU and the US to intervene and allow the British Council to continue it's work without let or hinder as soon as possible.

Look... Parliamentarism... a small history lesson on the subject: "In theory, power resides in the monarch, who chairs the cabinet and chooses ministers""The Government (cabinet and ministers) MUST have the APPROVAL of the people, such as an elected Parliament, to rule"This is what I go on about when talking about parliamentarism. I am in NO WAY saying, that we should abolish the monarchy.. Perhaps this made things a bit more clear for everyone?! Kind regards, and Seasons Greetings to All! Tony WeckströmRoyal Ambassador to Finland Founding Member of the DPD Of course I understand that?!
Do you take me for a fool, or something?! Of course not, we just don't quite understand why you're pushing this "Parliamentarianism" so hard...like we don't already have it. |

As the party member and leader of the DPD, and Ambassador of Talossa, I would like to point out my personal view in this matter. I agree with the Honourable Éovart Caçeir, that a parliamentary monarchy does simply LIMIT the powers of the King, and NOT ABOLISH the the "Kingdom" itself. It also the view of DPD, that the Kingdom shall remain, but the system of Government should be based on a monarchy dependent on parliamentarism. Seasons greetings to all! I personally despise a monarch but have no problems with King John specifically. I just hate having someone totally above others. You described an absolute monarchy. A parliamentary/constitutional monarchy like the Kingdom of Talossa limits the political power of the monarch, and he is only a part of an intricate political system. |

Dear Sir, the thinking behind the logo and the symbolism is in my mind the following; The red half moon like circle, is a symbol of "division" between the people, whereas the blue circle symbols the the "unity" that we can achieve together, and the star within, the "Strength", we only unified and peacefully will achieve. The letters DPD, obviously stands for the name of the party. And the white background is for clarity. Hope this explained the workings of my mind at 1:25 am, as the time is here in Finland... Do you like the design - or find room for improvements? Kind regards, Tony WeckströmAmbassador to Finland
President of the DPDHey Tony, can I ask you what the symbolism of your DPD symbol is? |

That's all fine and well, and in my knowledge... A political party that shares the views of PARLIAMENTARISM, does not mean, that just because there is a parliament, there couldn't be a party that bases it's principals on PARLIAMENTARISM. Even Russia has a parliament - or any other country - but still the concept of the people's approval of the governments rule and law, and judgements, shall be monitored by an elected official body, such as house of representatives, that may rule against laws they find wrong, and a President, or King shall have the power of veto. This is all complicated to expain. But suffice it to say, I have studied diplomacy, politics etc. quite extensively - and the existence of a Parliament, does not rule out the existence of a political party that supports Parliamentarism... Perhaps, this cleared my points to all... It was suggested to me, that for me to start my own political party, in view of the upcoming elections, I should contact you, to do so.
My wish is to start my own political party, based on parliamentarism. (The Government must have the sanction of the people/citizens to rule).
I could go on and on about parliamentarism, but as I believe, you are learned individual, and member of government, you understand the concept better than a layman. Hence, and for a speedy judgment on the establishment of my party - I do hereby officially and with humility and dignity, request, that my call for a new political party be heard, and accepted by yourself, and on the behalf of the Nation.
It was also suggested, that a fee for a political party establishment is to be paid.
Can you accept Paypal, or international wire transfers?
I would prefer International wire transfers - will be sending from Finland.
The party shall be called (the DPD) "The Democratic People's Party".
(Be it known to all - that this has now been sent as a Personal Message).
Respectfully,
Tony Weckström
Ambassador to the Republic of Finland Um...Tony...we already have a parliament, it's called the Ziu, it's elected by the people... |

Ambassador to the Republic of FinlandDear Sirs; I would indeed wish to start my own party. If one of you gentlemen would point me to the person to whom I can declare my request for a new party, I would be very greatful. As to the fact to of the Paypal issue. One, preferably a member of the government level, should register a Premium account with paypal, and then a "Donate"-button can be established. People/Citizens could then donate as little as a few cents, or thousands of dollars depending on their will to better the Nation. As for the name of my Party I would hereby suggest: The Democratic People's Party (the "DPD") - a system based on parliamentarism. (The government must have the approval of the people to rule). Kind regards, Tony Weckström Ambassador to Finland You will have to submit a 50 word statement about your party the Secretary of State along with $20 US to him. But you better act quickly, the election starts in just a few days.
