The Grosvenor Letters
So here's a slightly-insane mini-project from the Other Place.

A while ago, Anarcho-Occultist made this post where the main premise was - for some reason - AOCxCrenshaw.

Here's that, but gayer and British. With fictional characters, because I'm not nearly as competent or confident.

The Grosvenor Letters: Wikipedia bits
Screenshot 2022-10-15 at 10.38.44 PM.pngLucas Tristan Bainbridge (b. 29 May 1977) is a British politician and barrister who served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from July to August 2034. He also served in the Labour governments of Keir Starmer and Angela Rayner from 2023 to 2034. He was the first (as well as the second-ever) person since James Callaghan to have served in all four Great Offices of State (as Home Secretary from 2023 to 2028, Foreign Secretary from 2028 to 2031, Chancellor from 2031 to 2034, and Prime Minister). He was a Member of Parliament (MP) for Blackburn from 2015 to 2034. On the political left of the Labour Party, Bainbridge describes himself as a democratic socialist, though he maintains a strongly pro-NATO foreign policy position, opposing the anti-interventionist policies of ideological peers such as ex-LOTO Jeremy Corbyn, and remained one of the most influential members of the Starmer and Rayner ministries throughout the 2020s and 2030s.

...

Bainbridge was elected Leader of the Labour Party in 2034 following the resignation of Angela Rayner and Labour losing its overall majority in the House of Commons in the 2034 general election. However, the Grosvenor letters would be leaked to the press just eleven days after his election as Prime Minister, revealing a lengthy series of affairs between himself and newly-elected Leader of the Opposition Grant Clarke. Bainbridge would resign just one week following the Guardian's publication of the letters (which mostly consisted of text messages) on 15 August. As the Labour Party had yet to elect a successor, Bainbridge would personally request that King Charles III appoint ex-PM Keir Starmer as caretaker prime minister, a request which the King obliged.

He also served in the shadow cabinets of Johnny Mercer, Tom Tugendhat and Rishi Sunak from 2023 to 2027 and from 2031 to 2034. He was a Member of Parliament (MP) for Sevenoaks from 2015 to 2034.

...

Clarke was elected Leader of the Conservative Party in 2034 following ex-Chancellor Rishi Sunak's failure to deliver a Conservative plurality in the 2034 general election. However, the Grosvenor letters would be leaked to the press just eleven days after his election as Prime Minister, revealing a lengthy series of affairs between himself and newly-elected Prime Minister Lucas Bainbridge. Clarke would resign as leader of the opposition on 12 August. However, the 1922 Committee would claim that the vote of no confidence in his leadership (which succeeded by a wide margin) had concluded just minutes before the announcement of his resignation, thus meaning that Clarke had been removed from leadership and had not resigned of his own volition.

Sir Keir Rodney Starmer, Baron Starmer of Reigate KG KCB KC (b. 2 September 1962) is a British politician and barrister who served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from August to September 2034 and from 2023 to 2033, as well as Leader of the Labour Party from 2020 to 2033. He has been a member of the House of Lords since 2034, and was a Member of Parliament (MP) for Holborn and Bloomsbury (formerly Holborn and St Pancras) from 2015 to 2034. Ideologically, Starmer has been described as being on the soft left within the Labour Party.

Born in London and raised in Oxted, a small village in Surrey, Starmer was educated at the selective state Reigate Grammar School, which became an independent school while he was a student; the University of Leeds, from which he graduated with a Bachelor of Laws in 1985; and St Edmund Hall at the University of Oxford, where he gained a postgraduate Bachelor of Civil Law degree in 1986. After qualifying for the bar, Starmer worked exclusively as a defence lawyer specialising in human rights issues at Doughty Street Chambers before being named a Queen's Counsel (QC) in 2002. In 2008, he became Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) and Head of the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS); following the conclusion of his five-year term as DPP in 2013, he was appointed Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath (KCB) in the 2014 New Year Honours. Becoming an MP in 2015, he was soon appointed to Jeremy Corbyn's first shadow ministerial team, from which Starmer and numerous other Labour MPs would resign the following year in protest of Corbyn's leadership; following Corbyn's confirmatory re-election as leader thereafter, Starmer was appointed to his reshuffled Shadow Cabinet in October 2016 as Shadow Brexit Secretary, a role in which he was responsible for shadowing the government's implementation of Britain's 2016 vote to leave the European Union (EU), instead advocating for a second referendum on the government's withdrawal agreement, in which he would vote to remain. After Labour's general election defeat in 2019, Starmer was elected to succeed Corbyn as Labour leader in 2020. Thereafter, Starmer sought to rebrand Labour, embracing a comparatively economically moderate position compared to his predecessor's.

In 2023, the Labour Party would defeat the governing Conservative Party in a landslide following a successful vote of no confidence against Prime Minister Liz Truss, achieving a 154-seat majority. Labour would later win two more general elections under his leadership: in 2027, in which it won another landslide victory, retaining a 114-seat majority; and in 2031, in which it lost 50 seats but managed to maintain a 14-seat majority. As Prime Minister, Starmer dealt with the ongoing effects of the post-Brexit, post-COVID economic crisis that marked his early years in office; these involved an accelerated decline in government expenditures on public services that his government sought to reverse through anti-inflationary stimulus measures, including the nationalisation of Great British Railways, the Royal Mail, water/wastewater and energy services, and BT Broadband, as well as the founding of the National Education Service. Upon taking office, his administration immediately renewed enforcement of the Northern Ireland Protocol and eliminated tariffs on EU-imported goods in order to end the UK's trade war with the EU that had begun during Truss' premiership. Domestically, his government would replace the "first-past-the-post" single-member electoral voting system with the "alternative vote" (AV) method and expand the House of Commons by 200 seats filled via the "multi-member proportional representation" (MMPR) method, and reduced the nationwide voting age to 16; these reforms took effect at the 2028 local elections. His government generally touted progressive social policies as well, enacting the Human Rights Act 2028 to repeal the British Bill of Rights Act 2023 in favour of restoring the Human Rights Act 1998's protective provisions which his predecessor's government had repealed, as well as banning conversion therapy and expanding transgender protections. He would also withdraw the Labour whip from multiple MPs credibly accused of breaching Labour's tolerance rules, including Rosie Duffield and Jess Phillips.

Starmer would tender his resignation as Prime Minister and Labour leader in September 2033 and was subsequently succeeded by his longtime deputy, Angela Rayner, having surpassed Tony Blair to become the Labour Party's longest-serving prime minister by just over a month. Whilst tendering his resignation to King Charles III, the King bestowed Starmer with a second knighthood as a Companion of the Order of the Garter, installation with which is limited to number in 24 as a personal gift of the King Starmer would be appointed to the House of Lords and awarded a peerage in Angela Rayner's 2034 dissolution honours. However, just nine months after his retirement from electoral politics, embattled Prime Minister Lucas Bainbridge - reasoning that neither deputy Labour leader Jimmy Sergi nor deputy prime minister Layla Moran could maintain a coalition government - would request that the King summon Starmer to lead a caretaker government in light of his resignation due to the Grosvenor affair. Charles would oblige, appointing Starmer as Prime Minister with the confidence of Parliament. Starmer would subsequently serve as Prime Minister for a month-and-a-half-long period, resigning immediately after the election of Home Secretary Bridget Phillipson as Labour leader. He returned to the House of Lords, where he remains an active attendee of Lords sessions.

The World Ahead: Presidential speeches, Part 1
49. American involvement in the Belarusian Civil War (2034)

AUTHOR'S NOTE: It took me some time to decide on which of Wayne's speeches to use for this project of mine. After all, where to start? A DNC keynote? A rallying cry for striking Amazon workers? BTFOing Matt Walsh at the '36 debates? Any of his victory speeches? All of those are well-known for one reason or another, be it for eloquence, wit, or the sheer quantity of condescension. So I went for a more ... unknown public display.

***

Bruce Wayne was many things. A populist? Sure. A lunatic? Perhaps. A progressive? Absolutely.

But he was not a warmonger. Unfortunately for him, he was also a firm pan-democrat.

How exactly, you may ask, are these two views related? The simplest answer would be to look at Belarus. Or rather, the two Belaruses.

The western Democratic Republic of Belarus was a liberalized democracy with a fledgling economy, firmly ensconced within the democratic west; the east was an autocratic state claimed and supported by the Russian Federation. Separating the two was a "demilitarized zone" constantly contested militarily by both, with Minsk - the country's former capital - placed directly at its center.

The country had always been a potential hotspot for NATO-Russian conflict due to its 'competing' governments (with NATO backing West Belarus' claims over the entire nation and Moscow insisting that their annexation 'referendum' held only in the eastern parts gave legal rights to the rest of the nation) and the still-ongoing civil war. However, the war would once again go hot when the Belarusian Federal Republic (led de jure by Nikolai Lukashenko) would order an ad-hoc invasion of the disputed capital. Ukrainian and Belarusian forces were unable to reinforce troops on the outskirts of Minsk, and the nominally-DRB-run city fell siege to the east.

While NATO would fully condemn the illegal strikes carried out on Minsk, they were far more divided on how to respond than in 2022. Some would call for a ceasefire - cede Minsk to a joint administrative agreement and cede parts of the DMZ to the eastern state. Some called for a second Lend-Lease to allow Belarus to retake Minsk on its own. But some wanted more. In particular, Wayne would call for the basing of NATO-allied military assets in the country.

This was ... not the most popular idea. While the vast majority of the country wanted America to defend Belarus, they did not want to "run the risk of nuclear war", a risk further illuminated when a dying Putin ordered a nuclear test in Siberia. This, of course, prompted a now-viral exchange between the president and an ostensibly anti-war leftist at a town hall, with the heckler accusing him of "fanning the flames of nuclear hellfire with imperialist aggression". While most remember the exchange for ending with Wayne slapping the interrupting party in the face after a remark insinuating that his second son was "damaged" due to having been homeless (way to polish your leftist bona fides there), Wayne would return to the stage several minutes after to deliver a quick speech.

I don't like having to expand the military-industrial complex. Alright? Very few people do.

But life is about a series of tough choices that make or break your legacy and your values. I value peace. But I also value democracy, human rights and self-determination.

Supporting a democracy isn't "war-mongering", it's supporting the right of an independent people to make their own decisions for their country regardless of what some short, cancer-ridden tyrant might demand. If you want to appease Putin because of the risk of nuclear war, then I ask you this: where is the line?

Do you give up Ukraine next? The Baltics? Poland? At what point do you tell an expansionist, nuclear-armed state "no"?

Because delaying that reckoning will only hike up the costs.

If your view is "Never, we should never risk nuclear war", then why not just surrender to Vladimir Putin, Lord of Don't-Make-Him-Mad-Or-He-Might-Nuke-You and save us the hassle?

Or do you think that there is a genuine line? If you think that, then where is it? And why is "self-determination and defense against an expansionist regime" not part of that line?

The reason I chose this speech is quite simple, really - it boils down to mindset. Specifically, that of Bruce Wayne.

Wayne is mostly described as a good man - founding nonprofits, donating millions to charity, going above and beyond for even the most missable problems - with a firm moral compass. At the same time, he's characterized as some sort of amoral, LBJ-esque figure - fully willing to blackmail and strongarm his way to an end goal. In my mind, both are true at the same time.

Wayne seems to be a person with a strong moral compass ... at least, for his objectives and goals. This seemingly doesn't extend to his methods, however.

That is the driving reason behind choosing this speech to represent him - not just his presidency, but his entire being. A man with a near-boundless desire to better the world for the sake of the people in it, and willing to deliver that improvement with equal amounts of ruthlessness. Now that's an apt description of the 49th President of the United States.
