El Presidente de la Roca: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 08:46, 10 June 2021

Señor Presidente del Consejo del Rey (English: Lord President of the King's Council), unofficially simply the Lord President, is the executive head of government of Rockfield and leader of the King's Council. Traditionally, the role of Lord President was held by the King's most senior advisor. However, since the restoration of the monarchy, the Lord President has been synonymous with the former role of El Presidente de la Roca (the head of government).

The office was rebranded from El Presidente to the Lord President following the re-ascension of King Charles VI. However, the office was still held by Emiliano Matias Alejandro. Unlike the presidency before it, the Lord Presidency is a position appointed by the King himself and the ruling Partido Socialista had little say in its appointment. The Balancín Cortes Generales also has no veto over the appointment of the Lord President, as it did during the interregnum when Rockfield was a republic.

-The presidency was officially regarded as an institution of the state and the incumbent El Presidente is the most senior member, both politically and ceremonially, of the country. However, in 3021 with the restoration of the monarchy, this position was taken up by the [[Balancín Monarchy|monarch]], leaving the El Presidente the political leader of the country. Between 3009 and 3020, El Presidente was elected by a direct popular vote, with the candidate of PS being the incumbent General Secretary. This has resulted in every El Presidente being from PS. Since 3021, El Presidente has been appointed by the reigning monarch with the consent of the Cortes Generales.
-The first elected El Presidente was [[Palos De Santa]], who became El Presidente of the settlement in 3005 and formally elected to the position of El Presidente of the republic in 3009. The incumbent El Presidente is [[Emiliano Matias Alejandro]], who was elected in 3020.
-Since the death of Palos De Santa in 3019, there is only one living former El Presidente ([[David Winston]]). However, on 16 August 3020, incumbent Joseph Laos will become the second.
