Description[?]:
| Chemical and Biological weapons are a blight on Telamon's reputation for compassion, social justice and respect for human rights and honourable conventions of war. This marred use of science is both despicable and unethical, and its use cannot be condoned by mere calls for 'self-defence'. Parliament must agree to the suspension of Telamon's right to use Chemical and Biological weapons for any purpose. I urge all moralists, ethicals and human rights activists to sponsor this bill for the moral integrity of Telamon. Georges Immanuel Shadow Science and Technology Minister |

| Random quote: "I worked at a factory owned by Germans, at coal pits owned by Frenchmen, and at a chemical plant owned by Belgians. There I discovered something about capitalists. They are all alike, whatever the nationality. All they wanted from me was the most work for the least money that kept me alive. So I became a communist." - Nikita Khrushchev |
