6th National Moderate Government: 1977 - 1985

The 6th National Moderate Government was formed on the 10th of October 1977 in the Kingdom of Dissau with Jonas Rigby as Prime Minister. The government was formed after winning a slim majority in the 1977 Dissauian General Election. Jonas Rigby, the previous Prime Minister between 1955 to 1961, formed the 6th National Moderate Government and took on his 2nd premiership as Prime Minister. Rigby's support and enthusiasm as Prime Minister was quite low because the public and his party wanted a much tougher and more right-wing Prime Minister/government. After Rigby failed to win and outright majority in the 1979 Dissauian General Election, he formed a coalition with Free Liberal but ended up resigning in less than a year. Rigby was replaced with Patrik Milton, a more right-wing and liberal economics politician who had gained power and status in the late 70s in Rigby's cabinet. Milton's government was reelected with a large majority in the 1980 Dissauian General Election and was responsible for introducing right-wing economic policies that included major denationalization of government companies and the liberalisation of the economy. Milton was very popular among the public but due to a government scandal in 1983, his government lost its majority in the 1984 Dissauian General Election and ended up being ousted from government in the subsequent 1985 Dissauian General Election. The government officially dissolved on the 23rd of March 1985.

=== Immigration & Citizenship ===
Under the leadership of Jonas Rigby, the government did little change in terms of immigration except from increasing the number of immigrants to 7,000 in 1978 and 8,000 in 1979.
When Patrik Milton became Prime Minister, he promised to make an almost immediate temporary stop to immigration. He set out the National Immigration Plan in August 1980 that intended to put an immediate halt o immigration in the country starting in January 1981 and to only allow immigrants when the birth rate went below either 1.7% to 1.5%. His immigration plan was generally welcomed by his party but Labor took major offense to the plan and attempted to boycott it by rallying a major force in parliament against it and launching major protests. Rigby's boycott failed and Milton went through with the plan, brining immigration to a stop in January 1981. Milton continued this throughout 1982 and the most part of 1983 until around 500 immigrants were accepted in November 1983. Milton then agreed to increase immigration to 5,000 yearly after entering a coalition with Free Liberal in 1984 and immigration resumed as usual.
