Whatever y’all decide… just be sure you don’t change the Delegate position name. That name is codified in-game, so it would look rather weird to say our Delegate is a “President/etc.” everywhere but in-game.
Yes, I know other regions call their heads different, but its been a long-established (literally since the beginning) tradition to call the Delegate, the Delegate.
Every other RO position can easily be renamed.
So PM it is.
Wait…what’s the problem with Prime Minister?
I feel like it doesn’t fit our government.
that’s a silly reason. The Prime Minister is the head of government and they are prime among the ministers. Looking at analogous RL governments and saying “well this one doesn’t actually align perfectly” isn’t a reason to change something that works just fine.
we should change it to Prime Minister because they’re essentially a Prime Minister (revolutionary I know)
Why?
Just chiming in to say that it’s not unheard of to directly elect a prime minister, even if most RL parliamentary nations don’t. It was done for a few years in Israel.
Indeed I do!!! >:(
In my opinion, however, unless we are doing a large rebranding, I’m not convinced we so in isolation change the title of Prime Minister.
@UncleJoe still wondering about this comment. I understand this sort of discussion comes up every now and then in the Assembly but I never understand why exactly people are so set on changing the prime minister’s title.
I especially don’t understand why the title “doesn’t fit our government” if Oxford defines a prime minister as “the head of an elected government.” Our Charter tells us that the prime minister is the “head of government.” Seems like it fits our government.
So what was the general consensus about this?
It continues to be that it’s unnecessary.
The general consensus is that you need to stop gravedigging inactive threads
The Chair fully agrees with this point and requests that the gravedigging cease.
