| Message | Bullshit. You have over a third of the parliament. Its the rest of us who need visibility, not you. This is a cheat, dammit. If anyone did agree if you on just one of those bills, and therefore threatened to split your vote, this is a backup. Because you put all your proposals together, most of which they don't like, with the one they do, you make it so they have to cancel out their agreement. |
