Bill: Religious Direction of Dranland Act (3446)
Details
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: March 3447
Description[?]:
| Mr.Speaker, Dranland's policies on religion are lax and lack direction or coherent design. Without overview of the ideas being spread across the nation there is no way to ensure that pervasive and harmful ideologies and religious agendas are not being spread into the hearts and minds of our people. We propose several limited reforms to help Dranland keep a better eye on what exactly is being spread across our nation and to our people. |

| Message | Madam Speaker Shame on you, how could you allow VBSM'ers to spoke racistly and harmful way. Her speech ends but mic is open she is heard to say ''If Maddocks were speaker he wouldn't allow this travesty going on'' Nikki Zasz MP from Ulbrach Proud Gyeong Dong endorsee |

| Message | Order! Order! I am not without respect and empathy for the point Nikki Sasz is making. Nevertheless, as controversial as Alvaro Chomar's views may be, he has not expressed them in an unparliamentary way. It is my role as Speaker to try to ensure that Members treat each other with courtesy during debate, not to regulate the content of their speeches - however unpleasant they may be. Maria Jimenez MP (Speaker of Parliament) |
