| Message | Whilst some people may feel ill of both these and the health privateisation policies as they are not always in agreement with the poorer classes, a new budget will be announced to the senate within the next year which will show everyone a range of tax cuts in the departments we intend to privateise. Deirdre Wessex, Supreme President. |
| Date | 23:15:35, November 29, 2007 CET | From | Coalition for National Unity [CNU] | To | Debating the Education Act |
| Message | After careful deliberation, the Conservative and Morality party must vote "No" on this bill, for we disagree with Article 3. We believe in FULL Privitisation of the Education system, and not half-promises. It is of couse, something that should only ever be suggested in comprimise, not as a supposedly strong policy; because comprimise is not strength. Jullian Mason, CMP Vice Chair, CMP Director of the Executive Agenda. |
