sparkindarknessHis Most Excellent Majesty the Eternally Amused of Ascensoria sat down at his desk with a pleased sigh, content after a prolonged hiatus to once again wisely administer his proud, noble and very silly nation.

He gestured regally to Lady Luna the Extremely Eccentric, his Personal Assistant, to allow the first petitioners to approach the Presence.
His Most Excellent Majesty was somewhat bemused to find that the first issue regarded a proposed ban on breast feeding in public. Since Ascensoria had already legalised public nudity http://sparkindarkness.livejournal.com/154861.html#cutid1 and His Majesty rather felt that the addition of a baby to the naked boobies was hardly going to raise complaints except by people complaining that the view has been eclipsed.
Still, properly sensitive to the views of his people, His Majesty felt is necessary to perform an experiment. With great solemnity he instructed Lady Luna to menace the petitioners with her cleavage. It soon became apparent that none of the petitioners were unduly afraid of the boobies and that consternation over breast-related injury or damage was generally low. Duly reassured (and even more Amused) His Most Excellent Majesty did bid the petitioners to bugger off and leave young mothers in peace.
The next proposal seemed to be one of much greater severity. It appeared that numerous landowners around the country were most irritated by travelling groups camping on their land. His Most Excellent Majesty was generally inclined to find irritated people to be damaging to the Eternal Amusement, but had to concede a point in this case. He most definitely would not like to have anyone camped in the palace grounds while he enjoyed a relaxing day instructing his staff of bronzed, muscular gardeners. However, He was most disinclined to destroy a way of life that had existed for generations.
His Most Excellent Majesty resolved that the only solution was to provide public property for the purpose of travellers - land that could be used as parkland when not occupied, bringing more greenery to cities as well. One of his ministers protested most vociferously about the cost but Lady Luna the Extremely Eccentric pointed out that the nations law required everyone to be housed and if the travellers were evicted from their caravans then public funded council housing would have to be found for them. In the long run, providing a green field, even one that needed cleaning, would cost considerably less than providing bricks and mortar.
