An introduction
Today Palcon is a nation of 233 million people. We are a commonwealth as most nations have gained independence from Palcons great leadership. We are judged as socialists but we aim for comlpete democratic capitalism.

Today the PAF (Palcon Airforce) took over gov't and replaced the title of Commonwealth with Armed Republic.

Former Prime Chancellor has been replaced with the title Chief Air Marshall Chancellor.

The Chief Air marshal Chancellor (CAMC) Salutes all of Texas whilst 6 squadrons of British Tornado jets fly off above!

God bless Texas!! :beer :beer

As well as this the PAF have just opened a new international airport with the latest Boeing 737s going all the way to places like Pablicosta, Hotrodia, NewTexas e.t.c and non Texas nations as well, to name a few.

Cheers to the PAF and the CAMC! :beerchug

This is the BBC for Palcon and Texas service at 9.43am GMT here is the news:

After capturing a foeign terroist, Palcon's government in co-operation with the Special forces divisions decided that torture against terroists would be legal.
The CAMC made this statement to the governmetn oof Palcon:
"Ladies and Gentlemen of the house of Spitfire. Yesterday our wonderful army and police force arrested a foreign terroist aiming on causing harm and fear to our innocent citizens. We have decided that torture to extract information from them, and to punish them will be the best way forward to stop it happening again. Cabinet if you agree say aye to this decision, vote now."
(Cabinet votes on pad)

The votes are in and the BBC will display them..... 73% say yes 27% say no

The CAMC and the cabinet representing different sectors of Palcon are in agreement. Yes to torturing Terroists.

Hopefully the BBC will report again tommorow at around 10am GMT.
Now to "dead ringers" on radio P for hilarious comedy and immitations of Tony Blair and other politicains/Stars.... (fades away)

This is the BBC service for Palcon and Texas here is groundbreaking news:

Our journalists have found out that the evil nation of Qualland is still at war with the free and great region of Texas.

Qualland earlier on made several insults to cabinet members and our great delegate NewTexas and burned a copy of the Texas constitution.

Chief Air Marshall Chancellor Ol told BBC this

"Qualland is the reject of society and if NewTexas did eject Qualland from Texas we believe they made the right choice, because Qualland is a homophobic Nazi state intent on killing homosexuals and lord only knows who else he plans to kill...
Unfortunately there is nothing that can be done to stop that Hitler supporting nation
and we can only sit back and hope they change their ways..."

We've just heard the PAF are questioning whether to bomb Qualland, but the police there are preventing us access to the Hurricane House in the parliament of Palcon...

Ladies and Gentlemen sit tight and we'll keep delivering the news

So this is Roger Grenwich signing out for the Palcon/Texas BBC news.

Long live the free region of Texas!

This is the BBC home service for Palcon/Texas, here is the news:

Yesterday Palcon's government decided that a more friendly flag be brought out for Palcon, so instead of the ME-262 a flag was designed that had "Professor Peter"
our University's mascot which is of course a Penguin with glasses, this was decide because the public voted on their favourite Ice Hockey team and the results were narrowly the Pittsburgh Penguins.

21% Vancouver Canucks

39% Florida Panthers

40% Pittsburgh Penguins.

So this is JFK signing off for the BBC Texas/Palcon news.

Our international airport now goes to El Pat's international airport. Our airport is located in the City of New Hull 30 miles from the capital Palton.

Other attractions in Palcon is the P.A.F airfields scattered around Palcon which have open days constantly and our nations Coca-Palbeer, a mixture of coca colas goodness and some beer chucked in from the brewery. Or alternatively buy some beer that was imported from Pablicosta.

Welcome to Hululu who moved to Texas a couple of days a go. Funny name, even if it does sound like it belongs in Hawaii.

Also has anyone other than me been to the nationstate region of Little Weighton?
If you have you'll know that it stinks and is trying to compromise its policies to attract nations in.

DON'T GO TO LITTLE WEIGHTON (the nationstate region)!!!

Instead stay in Texas, unless of course you are on the Texas defence force and Little Weighton declared war on Texas, but only for invading reasons.

New region in the planning!
(and some Palcon history for you)

We found out today that the nation of Roman Fencers who is currently based in Little Weighton is planning to build a new region called Cottingham which is a breakaway region from LW.

We wait to find out how this move prospers. We predict it will fail. This is because the nation of Palcon has had previous experience with building new regions. Some may know of the region of The East Rding of Yorkshire which was built by the gov't of Palcon. It failed because the only nations were either Palcon's AR alliance or the nations belonging to some nations belonging to Little Weighton which Palcon declared war on after the Communist leader chucked the innocent nation of E Yorks out for no reason.

So for some time this resulted in the cold war between East Yorkshire and Little Weighton, untill Palcon kicked out Gazaia and the communist continents as aliens of the enemy, as they belonged to Choc monster the founder and delegate of LW and Callistine who has nations in LW eventually this lead to arguments with Choc monsters from the CAMC or Prime Minister at the time. Eventually Palcon returned to Texas and the cold war remained for a tiny bit and then everything died down, the cold war finished.

This is the BBC home service, here is the news:

Don't forget to go to the never ending barbeque in the Texas regional activities section for fun conversations with other Texas members.

Also don't forget that Palcon has built a House with no windows or doors so any air force is welcome to come and bomb these houses for target practise, as that is what they are built for. Especially if you plan on bombing that jerk Nixon in Qualland.

12.00pm GMT-6 (Texas)
Don't forget the Texas chat on Saturday, 6.00pm GMT (Britain)
7.00pm GMT+1 (Mainland Europe)

Today a new nation joined the average sized DS Alliance of Palcon. The nation's name: Afrikanner.

This alliance is one which the great nation of Palcon watches over the alliance and helps them out if they fall into trouble.

A classic example is when E Yorks was kicked out of Little Weighton for no reason (although we suspect it was simply just because it was aiming for capitalist ideals instead of communism) and Palcon had to declare war on Choc Monsters, which inevitably lead to the cold war vs The East riding of Yorkshire and Little Weighton.

On another note please send in any ground breaking news of Texas, as Palcon's news is slowly becoming a great news service

This is the BBC news live from Pullton, in North Palcon, where we have word that the CAMC and other cabinet members voted by the P.A.F. have signed rights over for a democratic republic.

Here is the CAMC now. Marshall Chancellor why sign rights over for a democratic republic?

"Well there Roger, it was shortly after that event where one of my ministers was trying to oppress the people that I thought, Hey why not give the responsibilities back to the people, let them decide the way."

and I believe you have handed over the rights. Is that correct?

"Yes Roger it is."

so what now then

"Well an election will occur then a new Prime Chancellor will be elected"

and will the P.A.F resume its pre-power control?

"Absolutey! We will serve Palcon and Texas"

Back to the studio then, in Coniston.

Thankyou there Roger. Well see you again tommorow at 6, bye.

This is the BBC home service, here is the last news from the region of Texas:

Today the Palcon government announced it is moving to Cottingham, however will still supply its news to Texas. The leaders will also attend the chat forum on Saturdays unless anyone has a problem with it.

We are also pleased to see that we have moved out of our socialist period and into a democracy.

So in around 30 secs Palcon will be moved by magnetic forces newly discovered and landed in Cottingham.
Let the countdown commence:

This is the Palcon news live from Cottingham.

"We have just learnt the leader of the nation has banned "Communist Cows" a nation supposedly breaking Cottingham's rules yet apparantly never in Cottingham. They are also accused of being part of a semi alliance with Little Weighton's leader Chocolate Monsters."

Palcon's government have showed that they are bewildered and confused and also believe Roman Fencer's may be getting a little power crazed.

We also know that RF has made the worldbook fact entry a declaration of war against the region of LW.

Palcon's prime Minister told the BBC that we are concerned because we do not wish to restart the war, as our economy has just got itself back together again, however the Defences have been put up just in case. Alll we can do now is hope that RF doesn't turn into a dictator and start chucking random nations out.

This is Roger Hyde signing off for the BBC news at 21.36pm
