Date | 10:01:07, January 07, 2010 CET | From | United Republics Party | To | Debating the Declaration of a Terrorist Orgazation Amendment November 2874 |
Message | It still does not have enough votes to pass. Perhaps you can't count or are unfamiliar with how constitutional amendments work. |
Date | 11:00:04, January 07, 2010 CET | From | The Liberal Party | To | Debating the Declaration of a Terrorist Orgazation Amendment November 2874 |
Message | Oh, we are very familiar with how Constitutional Amendments work. Two-thirds of the seats filled in Parliament must vote in the affirmative for it to pass. OOC: But in order to prove that to you, I will propose a treaty and let's see if it gets passed or not. |
