| Message | These are a proposals, 4 years is enough time for a government to lay its stamp on the country and also the peoplewill have the opportunity to boot out unpopular governments more frequently. Also for new parties they have a chance to gain seats earlier. In regards to the cabinet the largest party gets to go to the head of state which is currently vacant. I purpose an elected head of state and head of government or we find a new head of state and have a monarchy. |
