-Bannerman ran for the Senate seat of Expansia, and won on July 15, 2022. In the campaign, he wants to bring referendums from citizens into Melonian law; basically, allowing citizens to gather enough signatures to get an item passed into law via a citizen vote. He also advocates for Cieurnish culture and ideals, and wants to add Cieurnish as an official language of Melonia, in addition to English and Melonyc.+Bannerman ran for the Senate seat of Expansia, and won on July 15, 2022.

-M.P. Bannerman is strongly in support of enacting a claim of the entire world (except the Taladosian colony) and naming the land the Melonian Republic. This proposed nation would use a semi-presidential system. In this system, you would elect two people for the two positions, the same as right now, a President and a Member of Parliament to represent you. The President would appoint a Prime Minister, who is head of the cabinet, and then the PM would appoint a cabinet, which would be approved by the Parliament. The Parliament would approve the PM.+M.P. Bannerman was strongly in support of enacting a claim of the entire world (except the Taladosian colony) and naming the land "the Melonian Republic". This idea, now the official government of the Republic of Melonia, was a nation that would use a semi-presidential system. In this system, people elect two people for the two positions, the same as the old City government; a President and a Member of Parliament to represent them. The President appoints a Prime Minister, who is head of the cabinet, and then the PM appoints a cabinet, which has to be approved by the Parliament. The Parliament would approve the Prime Minister.
  
-The President would be head-of-state, mostly doing things like executing foreign affairs, giving speeches, being allowed to expunge criminals, etc, etc, while the Prime Minister would run the day-to-day affairs of the government, and would more directly affect citizens. The Parliament can kick the Prime Minister or any Cabinet members out at any time with a majority “vote of no confidence”.+The President is the head-of-state, mostly doing things like executing foreign affairs, giving speeches, being allowed to expunge criminals, etc, etc, while the Prime Minister runs the day-to-day affairs of the government, and would more directly affect citizens.

-This support has so far led to the renaming of all government positions to match the potential new government, which is why Bannerman is now titled “Member of Parliament” instead of Senator.+This support led to the renaming of all government positions to match the new government, which is why Bannerman's former title is “Member of Parliament” instead of Senator. This new government proposal was eventually formed, and you can read the new Constitution [[civics:melonia:constitution|here]].
