Reina-Rodriguez, Leader of the Socialist Party of Kalistan, declares pragmatism
"The statements of the Premier have produced some cautious optimism among the Members," said former Premier Maria Reina-Rodriguez. "If the Premier stands by his word, there is a possibility that we may have common interests."
The Leader referred to recent statements made by Premier Southwark, whose party which bears his name, swept him into office. "The prerogative is that the President of the Republic names the Government, with the advice of the Leader of the Plurality. Fine. We expected that The President would remember who put him into office, because in the final analysis, the decision was his. The President quickly forgot about the Socialist Party's historical support. At least Southwark had no historical debts to repay; at least Southwark didn't stab us in the eye."
The Leader suggested that she welcomed the Premier's commitment to the Dual System. "Of course, a robust private sector is necessary for a healthy economy. We will not, however, turn our backs on the workers. Where the Government puts the workers first, we can pragmatically support their policies. If they attempt to put the wealthy and the owners first, and meanstest social welfare programs, we will fight them tooth and nail, and we will undo what they did as soon as we get the opportunity. You can believe it. Any pro-rich, sociopathic policies aimed at destroying the fabric of society and the gains and property of the people will not long outlast their administration, and we will bury not only that policy into the dust, but will bury its memory too.
"While we choose pragmatism, when appropriate and progressive to the society, we will not allow Rightism to remain the policy of Kalistan if we have the power to reverse it. So we ask the Premier, in exchange for our tentative support, that he take a measured, and non-ideologically motivated approach to Government, to ensure that Kalistani prosperity and society is not shocked into reverse when progress is speeding along at 75 miles an hour."
The Leader made these comments at a ceremony launching the first set of 16 new Indica-Class submarine (RL Equivalent [url-https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_212_submarine]Type 212A Submarine[/url], begun in 4430, and prototype tested in 4432-early 4433) from the Kaliburg Naval Shipyards, a contract started under her administration, and which was continued through the transition. Of the lot, which is expected to be completed by mid 4435, half will go to Lodamun as repayment for their contribution to the research and development of the new submarines.
