| Message | We need to censure the delegate from the Tax and Spend Party. He spends many years attempting to force through Parliment bills and laws stating that they contain elements that he disagrees with. He also stated that he knew they would never pass. He gains many seats in the Parliment over the last two elections, before loseing a scant number in the most recent one. Then one of his pet bills passes. What does he do? Attempt to repeal the laws he set in motion. When will this insanity end? Why did he create these bills in the first place? Does he truly care about the wishes of his constituants, much less his own personal beliefs? Or does he just see our beloved Parliment as nothing more than a game to get him power? |
