Voting deadline: August 2146
Description[?]:
| Absalom ben Adamah, Officer Elect of the National Purity Faction of the Anarch Anakrousite Shatter, wishes to bring legislation to assist in the greater Patriotism of the Likatonian people. The National Purity Faction believes that ONLY those of 'pure Likatonian blood' should be called upon to fight to defend Likatonian interests. We believe it is IMMORAL to make visitors to a nation, place their lives on the line for that nation. The National Purity Faction also suggests reinforcing our casual border crossing points, and encouraging activities that PROMOTE patriotism, whilst opposing those that UNDERMINE patriotic values. It is also a concern of the National Purity Council, that 'undesirable' influences may be gaining political favour in local elections... victims of a form of 'ghetto' propoganda. The National Purity Council tenders up recommendations to deal with this problem. |
