| Message | A majority doesnt matter, we need half of the legislature to vote yes not simply just a majority... Read the top of this very page: "Votes: This bill presents the formation of a cabinet.

| Message | ???? Since when a majority isn't more then half of the legislature anymore. This government will have 126 against 124 seats. Not a big majority, but still more then the half of the votes. That is why we said, if all parties in the government should take the effort of effectively voting on this, this bill passes. |
