Wynnish democratic politics have for the last few months been chaotic. They have been characterized by spats between the various branches of government, and a lack of vision in policy. At the moment, nobody truly holds an answer to the question at the core of Wynnish politics: where should Wynnland be going?
This question is fundamental, because without an answer there will be no project on which to build our nation. There will be no metric on which to measure our success. And it will be difficult for us to develop as a nation. Answering this question should be at the core of Wynnish politics, yet as mentioned, it is not at the moment.
During my time as chancellor, it was my main ambition to answer this question. The government created a chancellor’s declaration which set out clear goals for us as a nation, and provided for us a direction in which to head. Even after I left office, and retired to the more spectatorial role of being a part of the Plam chancellery, I remained a vocal advocate in government for answering this question. With my return to politics as speaker I have continued on trying to answer it.
My answer and the party of institutional development's answer lies in the building of strong institutions. The institutions of Wynnland at the moment are weak. This leads to the fact that ministers and other top level leaders carry most of the burden of governing. The consequence being that when leaders are switched out all experience and all knowledge pertaining to their area of expertise will be lost, and the new leaders will begin from scratch. By building stronger institutions we will be able to achieve a Wynnland which will be less reliant on our top level leaders, and will function more smoothly across leadership changes. This will mean more activity and these strong institutions will serve as an entry point for engaging with Wynnland for new citizens.
The question of Wynnish politics needs an answer, and we need leaders who will be able to act on that answer. The answer to the question does not have to be my and my party’s answer. But in the absence of a central project, we risk becoming another Aenderia, where conquests of power and intrigue become the a to z of politics. A house divided will not stand.
