Strikes not ruled out…
The Americans grant their Santas exile at the North Pole, the Danes in Greenland, the Swiss in the Black Forest, the Finns in Lapland, the Dutch in Spain and the Russians nowhere. ‘We Santas are tolerated, welcome in December, but in the end we are homeless,’ comments MFS Chairman Dr Claus.
‘That has to change,’ adds the Russian envoy Snegurotschka (snowflake). In the last few days, Santas from all over the world have come together in Miniatur Wunderland and have been living in the 900 square metres of space ever since. After centuries of homelessness and loneliness in exile, the Santas have now found their promised land here. ‘This is where we want to stay, this is where we want to build our own state,’ she added.
Miniatur Wunderland has now received an application from the MFS. In addition to the request for land to establish a Christmas Republic, this application contains a constitutional proposal drawn up by the Christmasland Convention. This proposal calls for the following, among other things.
– Monthly presents for children
– No presents over 50kg
– Reindeer hunting strictly forbidden
– Beard obligation lifted
– Beard care products are provided by the state
– No reindeer tax
– Abolition of gift tax
– Sledge driving licence from the age of 16
– All red and white fabrics are free for residents
– Rehabilitation measures accordingly
Miniatur Wunderland’s spokesman Frederik Braun has announced that the application is being closely scrutinised. In general, however, nothing stands in the way of a state. He also added: ‘We want to prevent further demonstrations and strikes during the Christmas period at all costs and will therefore seek dialogue.’
Let’s see if there will soon be 195 recognised states in this world.
