Date | 07:06:47, June 05, 2012 CET | From | União Democrática do Tukarali | To | Debating the Green Manisfest |
Message | "How these measures are related to ending the exploitation of the middle class can probably only be understood by someone with a logic as twisted as that of the so-called Republican Party. Some of these well-meaning, but ultimately misguided measures, such as making the pension system completely voluntary, would in fact have the exact opposite effect. For these reasons, the Tukarese Democratic Union felt unable to vote for this programme." Carmelo Zaldivar, Minister of Health and Social Services |
