| Message | Mr. Speaker, My party would obviously disagree with the direction of this bill, but we wouldn't throw a tantrum if it was passed. We find the proposals to be acceptable, but we will vote against it because we prefer the status quo. There is a faction of Lodamese Nationalism which would definitely support this bill... the Percyists. I thank the AKU for implementing their agenda in a balanced way that does not disrespect Lodamese Nationalism or the 2nd Great Democratic Republic. -- Cletus Barlow, Chairman of the GNRG |
