Date | 10:26:51, March 13, 2016 CET | From | Union der Dundorfer Alorias | To | Debating the Regionalism Act |
Message | Article 5 could strip citizens of a fundamental democratic right, namely that to elect one's mayor. If this bill passes local governments don't have to be put directly under scrutiny. This will favour nepotism. We also oppose article 1. |
Date | 17:12:25, March 13, 2016 CET | From | Conservative | To | Debating the Regionalism Act |
Message | Conservative surprisingly agrees with NAP. We don't believe government should be involved in funding sports clubs either. |
