Dozens Die in Race Fiasco

Dozens of innocent citizens from across the Galaxy died last month in that most reprehensible spectacle – the race to take a piece of self- indulgent ‘Dream-Ware’ to the Alliance ‘Cultural Centre’ of Wicca’s World. Reliable Imperial eye witnesses report that the winner: Commander Chris Moss won purely by default on the grounds that the leading ships had all been involved in a savage dog-fight, leading to multiple deaths and the loss of several million credit’s worth of inter galactic shipping. This practice cannot possible be condoned within the civilised galaxy and His Excellency, the Hengist Duval, the Righteous Ruler has decreed that any Imperial citizens henceforth taking part shall be subject to court marital and summary execution (should they survive).

We have no doubt that all loyal citizens will avoid such rank profiteering and would instead devote their time and energies to the delivery of medical supplies to the hapless citizens of Sohalia (-1,5). It is well-known that the Alliance is incapable of administering to the needs of its citizens and this month’s fever epidemic is a case in point. At no point was adequate isolation or removal of infected subjects performed as is the practice on Imperial worlds in similar dire circumstances.

Instead, the fever was allowed to spread unchecked to the point where the industrial and mining complexes which are the heart of the system have all but ground to a halt. Reports from the region state that the local authorities are desperately short of medical supplies and will receive with utmost gratitude anyone who cares to help them in their plight.
