Message | We could've supported article 1 but we most certainly not support article 2. We would prefer it if in future bills could actually be linked or have something in common if they are in the same bill rather than this unstructured, unsubstantiated format. |
Date | 23:01:13, January 11, 2008 CET | From | Social Capitalist Party | To | Debating the Every little helps |
Message | We will not be told how to conduct how business by the "We Say So! Party" just because they say so. How democratic. |
