Message | This bill was introduced in the last Assembly and is being put forward to a vote immediately. If a coalition is formed, they have no obligation to vote for this given this was introduced before a cabinet could be formed. |
Date | 02:16:46, April 14, 2014 CET | From | New Beluzian Movement | To | Debating the Freedom Party Education, Justice, Ecology and Culture Bill |
Message | Most of this seems like a mishmash of the false dichotomy of political partisanship. We seek the extrusion of the political stagnation from our national infrastructure, individual and collective democracy over national pyramid schemes. We won't support this. |
