Bill: Cabinet Proposal of May 4014
Details
Submitted by[?]: United Centre
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill presents the formation of a cabinet. It requires more than half of the legislature to vote yes. Traditionally, parties in the proposal vote yes, others (the opposition) vote no. This bill will pass as soon as the required yes votes are in and all parties in the proposal have voted yes, or will be defeated if unsufficient votes are reached on the deadline.
Voting deadline: January 4015
Description[?]:
| A cabinet that we shall selflessly support. Though it does not include us, we have given up any power we could have given ourselves to beg the HSP, LPU, SDL and ICU to stop this draconian government. We implore them all to take this, as there is nothing else we could possibly do at this time. Please, for the sake of Eliyahu, stop this insane Urquhart before he arrests us all! |

| Message | Mr Speaker, This government is going around arresting people. We could well be close to a dictatorship, and in all honesty I'm at a loss. This is the best we can do until we manage to beat the current government back. If this fails, then we might well join with the LPU in a violent schism. Taylor Nickolas New Unity Leader |

| Message | Mr Speaker Your party threatened another politican. You threatened to kill them of course he shall be arrested. As for the communists we are simply responding to a revolution threat. Nothing more or nothing less. We do not wish for a dictatorship. Quite the opposite actually. We wish for democracy and freedom. Imperial Chancellor George William Urquhart |

| Message | "Mr. S-speaker" One of the LPU MPs not arrested, the only Reformist Communist in the diet now "I-I disagree with b-bloodshed as much as you..." He looked down, starting to shake "B-but Karl is right... You've gone t-to far, Karl and many other of the LPU's Workers' Council members... You sir" the 20-year-old shouted anger bursting on his face "YOU CRITICIZE US FOR NOT BE DEMOCRATIC YET YOU NEARLY DESTROY THE LPU'S CHAIN OF COMMAND! I WILL NOT REST UNTIL YOUR PAYING FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE TO THE PEOPLE'S UNION!" He sat back down, covering his face and starting to cry softly. Panzer Gütt LPU MP |

| Message | Mr Speaker, We are protecting this nation from people who wish to get rid of the democracy that we have here. Karl will be released eventually as will the rest that the police didn't find anything illegal on. |
| Date | 17:54:45, April 17, 2016 CET | From | Imperial Conservative Union (IA) | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of May 4014 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, Considering the actions of both "parties" involved in this disaster, we are abstaining. While we do not approve of Mr. Urquhart's actions, and will have them reversed immediately, the actions of the New Unity Party's member are inexcusable for the dignity and honor expected of a member of this chamber. The ICU puts the well being of the Empire before that of petty politics, and will not take part in such pointless and childish games. We expect the police to handle the actions that have transpired to lead us to this point with the professionalism that is expected of them. Not every stupid and childish action by certain members of this chambers necessitates the need to create a political crisis. Thank the Lord, we have the Privy Council to run the Empire, for this Diet can barely seem to maintain order of itself at the national level. Nothing more, than an absolute disgrace to the honor, dignity, and principles on which this nation is founded on. I yield. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, Well, perhaps someone so blindly idealistic and willing to support fascism should not be allowed in a government. This is a crap-hole, and whatever coward said this long-winded piece of butt-licking, neo-fascist bull-crap should be glad I don't go around arresting people who annoy me! Taylor Nickolas New Unity Leader |
| Date | 19:44:33, April 17, 2016 CET | From | National Party of Luthori | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of May 4014 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, Your associate threatened the life of a former Chancellor and you have the nerve to accuse the government of being fascist. You're an even bigger fool than I thought. I yield. |
