| Message | the reasoning behind the stringent border control is simply because we are going from not letting anyone in to a basically free border. we need to keep some control at the early stage of the transition, later on it may be a good idea to remove the strict border system. as long as we have some support on the issue i shall proceed to voting on the bill. |
