Bill: Cultural pride bill
Details
Submitted by[?]: Nationale Vrijheidspartij
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: February 3213
Description[?]:
| The culture of Vanuku must always come first. The fact of the matter is, this government is here to serve the people. You were elected to give the people in the country a society in which they are proud and prosperous. The fact is, more than seventy percent of Vanuku is of some Christian denomination. They are constantly overlooked for jobs, houses and education by the minority of Muslims, atheists and other foreign aliens. We must put our people first! The grand Chancellor has said in this parliament that our economy is failing. That is because our people want jobs. I propose we put them first for once, and do what is right for this country! |

| Message | Our native citizens that settled on our beautiful coastline ages ago only had a pagan religion. Those are the actual true citizens, should we now supress all Christians because they arrived later? All citizens in our nation are Vanukuian citizens, no outsiders are even able to get citizenship! We say no. Cornelis van Zanten Grand Chancellor Party Leader of the V&V |
