Date | 21:33:59, August 17, 2008 CET | From | Telamonese Communist Party | To | Debating the Pre-School Care Devolution |
Message | We are concerned this legislation would allow right-wing councils to deny subsidised pre-school education altogether. Albert Brocklehurst (General Secretary of the Telamonese Communist Party) |

Message | If that was the wish of that specific council then so be it. They are the elected officials of that region, and best reflect the views ofthat region. It is hardly accountable when an MP from socialist Lirona can influence policy over conservative Antepec, and vice-versa. Tristan Campbell-Shadow Shadow Education and Culture Minister |
