Ambassador to South Mithran Called to Foreign Office

Prime Minister Adrian Pollisworth did not take kindly to the criticism, which went as far as suggesting the PM step down from office and branded him a 'murderous tyrannic lunatic'. Foreign Minister Greg Dassault summoned the ambassador on the Prime Minister's behalf. It is not know what was discussed or said in the meeting, though the office is expected to release a statement tomorrow afternoon, with it being known that the SM Ambassador's Office being banned from making any official statement.

PM Plans Visit

It has been revealed this evening that Prime Minister Adrian Pollisworth is planning a state visit to Brickbridge with the foreign ministry and Lego Nations Financial Agency on the agenda, which is due to open in the next week. It is also rumored that Prince Edward will be in attendance, a rare occasion for the prince, who usually prefers to stay in residence in his palace in Brickcastle.

The announcement means more trouble for security forces in Brickbridge, who are already busy preparing for the Brickbridge Street Circuit Race this Friday, and news of yet another major event sparked some irritation from Brickbridge Chief Policeman Inspector Duncan Mallis, who said "Although the visit will be a great honour to the town, this police force and my career, we will find it difficult to provide maximum security at both events, we are already stretched thin enough."

Both the PM's Office and that for Prince Edward were unavailable for comment.
