Message | The AAS opposes... we believe there are some responsibilities that should be made as uniform as possible... and that means NOT pushing them 'down to chain' to minor 'dignitaries', just to make them feel like they have some 'greater purpose'. |
Date | 21:56:49, December 27, 2005 CET | From | Likaton Fascist Front | To | Debating the Likatonia Local government act - Pet ownership |
Message | The pss beleives nation government has more important things to attend to than putting in place the apparatus for dog registration. Farming/rural areas will require different laws to urban areas, and the best authority to formulate these would be the local communities themselves. |

Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
