Day 25 - Eunuch

'Wait a moment please' Rebecca pressed the earpiece into her ear.

'Sorry, can you repeat that?'

'Apologies everyone, I am being told we have some breaking news.'

The screen to Rebecca's left lit up with a picture of the President superimposed on an executive order.

'I am told that the President has just signed an executive order. This particular order is to be known as the Eunuch bill. To get more detail on this, we are going to pass over to our white house correspondent.

The shot widens as Rebecca spins in her chair to bring up the Whitehouse correspondent Wendy Warner.

'Good evening Wendy, what can you tell us about this late-breaking news?'

'Well, only minutes ago the Whitehouse communications director called for an impromptu announcement here in the drive of the White House. What they had to tell us was incredible.’

Wendy rugged up in a stylish overcoat, cheeks rosy red from the wind. Looks to the memo in her hand, provided to ensure a consistent message goes out through the media.

'Rebecca, let me read it to you. Effective immediately the following stipulations will come into place under this order to be known as the Bill of the Eunuch.'

Henceforth:

Every male child born across the country will be castrated within three months of birth

All males in society except those in the armed services are to approach the department of homeland security to seek/schedule a physical castration.

All males will be issued with medicinal/chemical castration over the next 10 days.

In 30 days, it is expected that all males will carry evidence of both chemical castration and a certificate of schedule for the physical castration. 

If these items can be produced the individual will be searched to confirm the males status and will be dealt with appropriately.'

'Wendy, this is amazing, we have known the party has been trying to take this move for a long time now. The left has been calling for castration for some time now; do you have any ideas on what will occur next? What should men do if they do not want to be castrated?'

'Well, Rebecca, we had the same questions.  We have been advised that men can attend to the department of homeland security and obtain a licence to possess testosterone. Second, to this, it is expected that the league of men's rights will sue to stop or halt this bill.'

'So what you are saying Wendy is that men can hold onto their balls.'

'Yes Rebecca that is what is being said right now. Back to you in the studio.'

'Thank you, Wendy.' turning back towards the camera, Rebecca 'Hear at BTN, we will continue to monitor this situation and provide updates throughout the evening.

Thank you, this is Rebecca Rules signing off.'
