| Message | OOC - The Democratic Party challenged that decision because he said it needed 2/3rds voting rather than more than half. I asked for clarification on it at the time but still not clear - maybe the Nationmaster can have a look at it? Thank you IC - We believe it is outrageous that parties with zero congress seats are being offered cabinet positions. Where is the democratic process at work here? Cronyism, corruption, undemocratic behaviour - all the things you wrongly accused the right wing parties of is very much evident in this left-wing stitch-up. Xirtes Fisk |

| Message | OOC: Constitutional = 2/3, Otherwise = 1/2. Moderation won't enforce it because it's game mechanic anyway. |
