From | Judicial Union Party | To | Debating the Agriculture (Farm Size) Devolution Act | Message | Farm size should not be regulated, however, that is not a question for us in the national government. We have no authority over matters of land, for that belongs in the hands of the local governments. |

From | Liberty Party | To | Debating the Agriculture (Farm Size) Devolution Act | Message | Except for schools, hospitals, police, roads, national parks, etc. Wait...I just realized something. All land belongs to the government. They gave up their rights to the land when they formed the United Tribes of Tukarali. |

From | Liberty Party | To | Debating the Agriculture (Farm Size) Devolution Act | Message | Well we can freely do so but it will not do us any good if we do so we do not. Despite the fact that it would violate the Tukarali Neutrality Treaty unless we were directly attacked. |

From | Judicial Union Party | To | Debating the Agriculture (Farm Size) Devolution Act | Message | No, we can't. We are bound by customary international law, which includes the prohibition on the use of force, as well as our treaty commitments (like the mentioned Tukarali Neutrality Treaty, which is rubbish and should be replaced with a better one). |

From | Liberty Party | To | Debating the Agriculture (Farm Size) Devolution Act | Message | It makes the statement quite clear that we will not attack any nation unless our nation is directly attacked and that we will offer our services to mediate peace. In all of our recorded history, we have never had a war. |
Date | 04:48:16, July 23, 2008 CET |
From | Judicial Union Party | To | Debating the Agriculture (Farm Size) Devolution Act | Message | Nor should we engage in war. That treaty is only relatively recent, written by an incompetent party who tried to ruin Tukarali, much as you are doing.
Our neutrality does not really relate to this bill though. |
