| Message | I have an issue with the Head of State appointing judges because what if the Judge is on trial? Will the judge not be more inclined to rule in favour of the President? I think the judges should be appointed by an independent body |

| Message | The minister of justice is a politician. What if the minister of justice becomes the evry person on trial? Judges should not be chosen by politicians else that would surely not make them politically independent. Imagine if the minister of justice is on an impeachment trial. Also I do not think the judiciary should handle impeachment in first phase. That should be done by Parliament and once it's passed, if the impeachment is of a criminal nature, then it goes into the judiciary. What if an executive member is impeached simply for misconduct in public office that isn't criminal, should they also be handled by the judiciary and waste courts time and resources? Therefore, with all that said , my political party cannot support this bill as we believe there are some issues that need to be ironed out. However we do commend the MSP for trying and maybe the government will place this on its agenda for this term. |

| Message | If the judges are chosen by the minister of Justice they might not be independent. |

| Random fact: When it comes to creating a Cultural Protocol in a Culturally Open nation, players are not necessarily required to provide a plausible backstory for how the nation's cultural background developed. However, the provision of a plausible backstory may be a factor in whether Moderation approves the Cultural Protocol if players in surrounding nations question its appropriateness for their region of the game map. |

This is the kind of jingoistic ideology Zardugal would bring to the Security Council. They will throw countless lives away in pursuit of former glory." - Prince Akhaias, former Coburan royal |
