The Right Honourable Roger Pollack, QC, MP was the Prime Minister of Ibagli from February to November 2006. He was born on 19 February 1943 in Cairns, Australia, to David Pollack, a Scottish laborer, and Victoria Llewellyn Pollack, the daughter of a Welsh mine worker. He attended Cairns State High School and the University of Queensland, where he recieved a degree in law. In 1974 he emigrated to Ibagli, and took up a job as a solicitor for the Ibaglian Railway and Maritime Workers Union. He was made a Queen's Counsel in 1983.

in 1989 he stood for election for the Liberal Party in the district of Haphonia-St. Edwards, the site of the nearly derelict Port of Haphonia. In 2003 he was appointed to be the Shadow Minister of Labour. During the McNeese administration he was the Minister of Labour. In December 2005 he challenged Vincent McNeese for the leadership of the Liberal Party. On 1 January 2006 he was nearly unanimously elected to that position.

Prime Minister

On 10 February 2006, the Liberal Party formed a coalition with the Green Party, led by Steven Lyall, that successfully toppled the recently-formed Smallegan government the next day. Pollack was appointed Prime Minister shortly thereafter. The coalition was dissolved after Lyall's dictatorship over Ibagli ended.

Quotes

  • 'Mr. Speaker, I will not, under any circumstances, support this bill unless it is modified for the purposes of equality. I will not, under any circumstances, support the amendment to create segregated institutions. I'll be damned, Mr Speaker, before I vote to allow the Prime Minister and his rag-tag band of bigots to destroy the principles of equality this country was founded on.'
During the 2004 Parliamentary debate on the Marriage Bill, a bill sponsored by the Goodwin government that would have defined marriage as the union of a man and a woman. The Speaker later ordered Pollack to retract his comments.
  • 'Mr. Speaker, I hope you've noticed that the Honourable Member for Mormont is one one of the few members in this House who are hell-bent on reversing Ibagli's long record of supporting human rights. Capital punishment will be reintroduced when hell freezes over. They'll know when that is Mr. Speaker, as I'm sure they have a direct line.'
During a 2006 Question period, after MP Erik Neyman asked if the government had any plans to reinstate capital punishment. His implication that the MP was a satanist was highly offensive to the evangelical Christian.
