Voting deadline: April 2572

Description[?]:

MessageThe Senate voted for half a programme and against the other half. This is being submitted again to give the senate a second chance at rectifying their mistakes. If you choose not to pull the country out of deffecit, on your own heads be it.

MessageWe will be suggesting tax modifications shortly which will pull us out of this quagmire. In the meantime, this bill would reduce the government to the point of inoperability.

MessageAgain, the members of this senate prove incapable of sticking to a policy. First you want to get us out of bankruptcy, now you dont. Will the Right Honourable Gentlemen in the SRNP be changing their policies on anything else? We may as well get it out in the open now to avoid future confusion over your mandate.

Dorothea Roberts - CMP Chairman of the Executive Agenda.

MessageRadnats- seeing as my party has never held the finance ministry, how is anything to do with the economy, my mess? The only thing i voted on was reduced taxes and a cut in budget now that some key services such as transport and welfare are privatised, we don't need as much taxes. We were also in deficit and so this new budget that the CMP proposed was a resolution to this. You are the one flip-flopping, whilst we make tough decisions on how best to deal with struggling economy that the FRP created, and yes it was the frp before you start mouthing off because they were the last administration before the current one.

MessageOur mandate, as handed to us by a great number of voters, is to make certain our state is effective and solvent. If that requires flexibility and change, we will do so.

MessageThe Radicals either want to save the nation or they dont, this is a blatent disregard for the policies of your own party and an attempt at blinding the people of this nation to your own policy blunders. Stop trying to decieve the people of Solentia and start being consistant.

SRNP- your mandate was given to you knowing full well you voted for tax cuts not rises, you are a bunch of hypocritcal opportunistic pigs who want nothing more than peoples votes. To vote for the "nice" option before an election winning votes and betraying your electorates decision to vote for you by doing a policy u-turn isn't flexible or change it is opportunism of the worst kind- the kind that could come from you and only you to be frank.

MessageWell I am glad to know the Radnats have such a fantastic defence to the claims that are so precise and spot on- opportunism, policy u-turns and passing the buck. If you the electorate agree with these things why not vote at the next election for the Radnats, if you want serious politics vote for the PP or the CMP who try and help those in need by cutting taxes, not raising them, lifting people out of poverty, not into poverty and who believe everyone should have luxury items not just some.

Random fact: Players who consent to a particular role-play by acknowledging it in their own role-play cannot then disown it or withdraw their consent from it. For example, if player A role-plays the assassination of player B's character, and player B then acknowledges the assassination in a news post, but then backtracks and insists the assassination did not happen, then he will be required under the rules to accept the validity of the assassination role-play.
