Kasper, NMP candidate

Today the NMP presidential hopeful Kasper Jansen has condemned the "champagne socialists" and "out of touch politicans" on high pay. The candidate said in a speech today "Today most of the Nyland house are millionaires, the salary is in the hundreds of thousands a year. This is a disgrace. How many you here today working truly hard jobs , labouring away 12 hours a day earn that money? ". After waiting for hands to go up he continued "I see no hands up. Wow , yet these politicians stealing hundreds of thousands and millions they do not deserve basically come for your vote as a "man of the people". These very people would vote for a wage rise in an instant , something for the record I have never ever done. I challenge the NPA, NCL and any other party and especially Tilda Morgen , take a wage cut , you earn minimum wage, you try to raise a family on the average wage. Oh thats right you won't because you are a corporatist, selfish immoral pig. You'd rather let the peasants do that for you while you laud over them patronisingly like royalty. I won't be that kind of president. "

Later on he unveiled his proposals. The candidate proposed to cut the presidents pay to just $75,000 a year the average salary for an educated Nylander while proposing the average salary of a legislator be just $50,000 a year. He also proposed bans on second jobs for legislators and to cap any public sector pay to just $75,000 to stop the "rape of the taxpayers purse". The candidate condemned the rich execs saying "The rich execs cut the wages, cut the benefits, they say they can't afford to give you time off. All the while they are going around in their fancy Lyons or whatever luxury car they have paid for kindly by you and the poor employee.Well I tell you I'm sick to death of these people raping you all , the time for the state gravy train has stopped and he people will win." The candidate also proposed limiting hotel expenses to just $50 a night for rooms and for $15 a day for meals and to economy public transport fares for officials. The candidate also proposed selling the private airplane fleet calling the state aircraft an "insult to the working class". The candidate has announced he "will not listen to the corporatist pigs who complain that putting the working class first will hurt their companies" saying "Look its simple if your company doesn't benefit the working and middle class I don't give a fig , go bankrupt for all I care and leave our country if you don't believe in looking after the people who really generate your wealth. We only care about the working and middle class and we believe that small business owned by people you see in the community are the only important businesses. Any other business should consider themselves lucky to be so big." The candidate has called on unions to back his bid and condemn the "champagne socialist" NPA bid and has promised unions the first seat at the table of power should he be elected.The presidential hopeful then turned to Ulrick , he said "You think Ulrick will change things for you. I tell you that man is a liar and a corporate whore. He is not your men. In fact I'm not usually one to swear but Fuck Ulrick. FU Ulrick I'm with the working class you caviar socialist. " The crowd are reported to have chanted Fuck Ulrick in response to the speech.
