| Date | 13:53:16, December 20, 2010 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Healthcare Reform Act of 3048 |
| Message | Rt Hon Karl Harrod MP, Leader of the Opposition, Mr Speaker, is it right that good health can be bought with money? Mr Speaker, proper health is a constitutional right and not something that should be bought and sold on the capitalist market. The NSC is outraged that the current health policy of Hutori is anything but the proposed above. The Labour Party claims to be truly socialist, yet they voted for the status quo? It is a betrayal of socialist voters when a self declared socialist party votes in favour of partially privitising the healthcare system in Hutori. Mr Speaker, unlike Labour, the NSC sticks to its principals and will stand for socialism when others fall. I hope the voters of Hutori who voted for the Labour Party change their allegiance to the NSC and our brand of true socialism. Honestly Mr Speaker, the NSC is already the largest party in Hutori and we are gaining more voters by the day as the CLP and Labour go out of their way to provide the NSC with more votes. Mr Speaker, on a final note - we shall move away from political point scoring - and return to the main issue. This Bill is not about point scoring. Its about the principals of socialism and the NSC will stand up for the socialist voters of Hutori unlike all others previousley. |
