Message | Prime Minister Peter McCullum, Mr Speaker, it is another great day for Hutori, that i have become Prime Minister for the first time. I did not think that it would happen after my first election as HNP leader. Anyways Mr Speaker, this Act has been drawn up to repeal all the nation weakening measures introduced by the CLP and the old Hutori Bloc. This wil make our nation strong and steadfast in times of warfare and will protect our citizens - unlike previous governments. |
Date | 16:18:21, May 15, 2010 CET | From | Conservative Alternative | To | Debating the Agression Act |
Message | Mr. Speaker New Conservative Alternative agree with HNP and we will support this bill because we believe that state without strong military is nothing. |
Date | 18:50:59, May 16, 2010 CET | From | Conservative-Libertarian Party (UM) | To | Debating the Agression Act |
Message | Mr Speaker, it is an odd day when compelling every single individual to join the armed forces and openly advocating the use of weapons of mass destruction for any reason, can be described as "protect[ing] our citizens". Mr Speaker, this act of aggression would convince the world that Hutori would need to be disarmed, and we would find ourselves in a very uncomfortable predicament. |
