Votes: This bill asks for an amendement to the Constitution. It will require two-thirds of the legislature to vote in favor. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Description[?]:
Recognising that there is no logical reason why parties must have their terms shortened while the ability to call an election exists, we propose to raise the term limit from 36 to 72 months to allow parties ample time to enact policy and continue the work they set out to do. |

Message | Mr Speaker, If you will stand in the way of democracy, then democracy will not stand for you. And if you wish to stop your own party from keeping the power to do whatever it needs, then you are shooting yourselves in the foot. |

Message | Mr speaker, We are stopping an undemacratic party from keeping any extra power that they want. You LPFs are a danger of democracy and we need to make sure you are stopped |

Message | Mr Speaker, I believe this shows how inconsistent your party remains. Beforehand, we were a decent party that you considered making a coalition with. Now, you consider us undemocratic. If anything needs to be stopped, it's the Conservative Party's inconsistency, else the nation will be run into the ground. |

Message | Mr speaker, This is a consistency which will remain the same, we all know your indemocratic. You have only just shown this now so don't tell me I am inconsistent. Your just a fraud |

Message | Mr Speaker, were we undemocratic, we would be taking away democracy entirely. Not so. We simply wish to allow parties the time to make their policies instead of having them cut off within a year and a half of their introduction. We simply want all parties given the right to have their terms fully, and we would not take such a policy away outside our term. |

Message | Mr speaker, It is for the people to decide the parties time for power, not yours! I never had this policy so why should you, please don't do this, it's unfair on us, the people and the basis of democracy |

Message | OOC: if this goes through to will make this nation less fun for new starting parties and I myself will leave |

Where appropriate, they should also provide guidance to players on where to find help with translations and character names. This might include, for example, links to Google Translate, Behind the Name's Random Name Generator and Fantasy Name Generators. |
