Message | We cannot allow this act to pass. We will as usual put pressure on all parties to abstain or vote against, will publish an article in the Interdependent (World Anti-Capitalist Initiative's news service) and the EUP newsletter, and will refuse to endorse supporters in any Election or Cabinet Proposal. We side with the UB. |

Message | I doubt I would ever get your support in the Election anyway and i've not had that great a record in cabinet elections so i have no fear of your threats but i will understand if other parties will be bothered by this. |

Message | One thing, could you not call it "The torture Act"? Instead call it what it is "the withdrawal from International Declaration of Human rights treaty". I'll never vote for torture but I'll vote to withdraw, but unless name is changed I can't support this time. |

Message | Fine i'll change the name, was it not called that the last time and you voted yes? |

Message | lol, thought the torture act was pithier and had more of a ring to it lol, but this title makes more sense i agree |

Message | It didn't look good voting yes on a bill called "the torture act". |
Date | 15:24:38, November 08, 2005 CET | From | Deltarian Nationalist Party | To | Debating the Withdrawal From International Treaty on Human Rights (2137) |
Message | I don't think we should go without any sort of treaty on human rights, perhaps we should draft a new treaty. |

Message | Different name, same premise. No. Maybe the upcoming election will turn this in our favour... |

Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, special care must be taken to ensure realism is maintained when role-playing a government controlled by an ethnic and/or religious minority. If it is to be supposed that this government is supported by a majority of the population, then this should be plausibly and sufficiently role-played. The burden of proof is on the player or players role-playing such a regime to demonstrate that it is being done realistically |
