Description[?]:

Message | Everyone must be able to propose a coalition, because the King/Viceroy may favour some parties or candidates. Similarly, in a hung parliament situation, everyone should have the ability to try to form a coalition government. |

Message | This is in compromise with dividing the functions of the Viceroy and the Premier Ministre. We dont want the popularly elected Viceroy to lose some power. But we will stick with the PHD in having a popularly elected Premier Ministre. |
