| Message | Very strongly opposed. ... You know you've proposed something utterly outrageous, when you've got KPJP actually agreeing with our arch-opposites the CPK, both in opposition to the proposal. :/ |

| Message | (As for the other three articles, we oppose every single one of them very strongly too. Adulthood age: KPJP might be willing to go along with decreasing this to 15 or even to 14, if other parties so desire. But any increase is utterly unacceptable to us. Furthermore, it has been at 16 in Kirlawa for many many years now, and everything is working fine. To propose yanking these rights away from our current and upcoming 16- and 17-year-olds -- who have been expecting their entire lives to receive them at 16 -- is something that KPJP find downright offensive. Proposal quotas: The current limits are quite reasonable, and very helpfully serve to reduce the incidence of exasperating "kitchen sink" bills, where a large number of totally unrelated proposals get rudely jammed together into a single bill. Please _don't_ propose those. Coincidentally rather similar to the above, KPJP might perhaps be open to a change in the quotas if other parties desire, but only if such is a reduction; any increase is unacceptable because of the raised risk of "kitchen sink" bills. Still, 12 quite neatly makes it "one per month", so it's a pretty nice and natural figure at which to leave this.) |
