Bill: Censure of the Red Police Party
Details
Submitted by[?]: Democratic Action Party
Status[?]: passed
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: March 3277
Description[?]:
| In light of the Red Police Party's flagrant disregard for the democratic institutions of this nation in declaring they will enforce their fascist tactics in Migadon and Likatonia: "Mr. Speaker, Due to the threat to national security posed by these individuals, the Armed Forces will continue operations on Migadon regardless of the outcome of this vote. At this time, these individuals are breaking laws and national security violations, and as such the Courts are the only power to stop response actions. All parts of this bill will be put into place immediately. Tyler Difan Minister of Defense" ...we call upon this legislature to formally censure them, and to restrict the powers of the police so as to mitigate their unacceptable actions. |

| Date | 02:36:46, March 21, 2012 CET | From | Red Police Party | To | Debating the Censure of the Red Police Party |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, Surely this is a very strange way of "censuring" us. More like the DAP are using our appropriate and justified response to extravegently pursue their own agenda. Perhaps the Monarchists can afford to find better bedmates than the elusive, unpopular and disrespectful "Democratic" Action Party? |
| Date | 03:08:25, March 21, 2012 CET | From | House Stafford | To | Debating the Censure of the Red Police Party |
| Message | As has always been our policy, House Stafford will support any party that pledges fealty to King Eadric, and supports him in the presidential elections. We have the support of three parties in Parliament, and would welcome another "bedmate" as the RPP so rudely put it. We would not, however, want to alienate the Democratic Action Party, an ally that has been helpful to the monarchy. That said, if the RPP is harboring doubts about the current left-wing alliance they are entangled in, we would welcome them to the monarchist alliance with open arms, if first they apologize to the DAP for the insults.
