Bill: 2461 Revolutionary Bill
Details
Submitted by[?]: Malivi Revolutionary Front
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: December 2461
Description[?]:
| Comrades! The bourgeoisie has prevented our front from making much progress this term, but the imperialists cannot be everywhere! Indeed, across Malivia, opposite Itaki wilayah, our comrades have made much headway and swept away the charred remains of the colonialist Protectorate Party. This is a series of demands to ensure that Malivia adopt the principles of socialism and set off on the path to the proletarian revolution. |
