A Message from Albia
I am enjoying Hugo Kent’s ‘Message from Albia … a country just like Britain, but worse’.
The blog chronicles the affairs of Prime Minister Kiznya Schlop of the Noy Krep Proti, his friend and rival the Finance Minister Bragdny Door, Zavlov Nizder, the leader of the Nyesti Proti, Prince Yusslez, the heir to the throne, and many others.
Zavlov Nizder is introduced in the ‘Albia Gazetteer’: “Once seen as a hardline rightwinger and the driving force behind the controversial Pole Tax (under which anyone of Polish decent entering Albia was required to pay a flat 500 pahnd fee). Since becoming leader of his party, Mr Nizder has sought to give himself a more human image (no small task for someone who casts no reflection in mirrors and has a deep aversion to garlic, sunlight and sharpened wooden fence-posts) and has recently discovered a lifelong passion for Skowz FC football club and an abiding interest in Morris dancing.”
