Sol 3 is our crib, Sol is our playground and the Milky way is our 6th form college! I bet you've thought that yourselves in the past? We (as UK citizens voted to leave the EU) we Asgardians didn't need a referendum: We know we've got to move out of our parents house and stand on our own! Maybe when we do, our younger siblings will laugh at us for walking the harder path but I guarantee you that when we stand together they'll realise that we were never running away, we were blazing a trail for our whole family into the undiscovered country! Elon's F9H demo is in January. IN THREE WEEKS HE'S GOING TO PUT SOMETHING GREEN HE MADE ON MARS! (Apologies for any spoilers.)
I'm already a politician here in England but that doesn't give me the right to ask for your vote to our true national future. For that dignity I'll trust my background in aeronautical technology, material science and project management with Staffordshire University, Advanced strategic thinking at Salford university and most importantly the work I've done to investigate a possible {(magneto-kinetic)/(photo-kinetic) non-Newtonian} Meta-material that can (and will) one day provide shielding from solar radiation while being exceptionally useful to skin craft or structures hoping to get as close to energy equilibrium with their environment as they can.
I was also one of the first supporters of M1 and hope Lars meets Elon in London at the BIS or we can convince Elon to come to the midlands where a lot of the technical ceramics are manufactured and get the UK as motivated as the US were for JFK. UK is leaving the EU? So what - Asgardia can be what the world has been waiting for with baited breath: We can sign trade deals with the US, EU and UK without any worries of asymmetrical standards: Falcon heavy launches next year, BFR two-three years later and we'll be drinking coffee on Mt Olympus for Christmas 2030 if we do this the right way and I promise you that we can but only if we get on and do what needs to be done to set up our provincial capital and our communication hubs before JAXA begin international work on that lunar lava tube cavern facility...
I'm a rare kind of politician here on Earth: I actually speak the truth and don't care if the truth hurts people's feelings. I talk from understanding and motivation, not rhetoric and delegation. If you elect me to the parliament of Asgardia then I'll use every ounce of my being to push the UK STEM sector to embrace us as a trading partner that's out of this world (pun intended) and I'll also be in a position to get Julian Mitchell (Nephew of THAT Mitchell) to help us set up an Asgardia educational Annex between the ISU, Sheffield, Staffordshire university, Brunel uni and most importantly at least 15 engineering companies ranging from technical ceramics through to micro-particle filtration manufacture and even the directors of a bio-fuel power plant that has expanded to 4 generators in under 5 years from nothing but brains and a lack of greed. I understand every concept and idea doesn't always work and I'll say straight off the bat that I know the odds are against us and the situation is grim (apology: pun detected!) but that's because I'm a scientist with a silver tongue and a burning desire to see the next generation feeling the gravity of Luna or Mars as if it's just another sensation. The way we feel the scorch of the sun under a Maltese sunset or that inescapable discomfort of the throbbing chill that sets in when you unpack for two weeks in Sapporo to watch the blossom festival. It's incompatible with my true desire that their grandparents looked in awe at the human race rise to it's technical and sociological limitations just to leave us with nostalgia.
I know that getting academic establishments and disruptive industry backing was totally from the heart. If you want me to take us forward without a shadow of a doubt as an English member of our national parliament then in return I'll be a guiding torch to lead by inclusion and representation as well as a blazing fire that scares any prowling scavengers away from our camp who would love nothing more than to find a way to profit financially from our energetic and diplomatically naive nation without any second thought.
