Details

Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: November 4300
Description[?]:
| Heinrich Scholz, Due to the imminent conflict about to begin, all who are willing to fight for the nation should be given the ability to aid in our struggle against the foreign imperialist aggressors. Hence we the Radikale Fraktion of the Hulsterische Partei propose the establishment of a party led People's Militia, to serve alongside the regular army and to enforce party discipline within the ranks of the populous. They will be under the direct command of the Party leadership and will be comprised of the most loyal and ideologically strong members of the general population. May the Volksmiliz aid us in our struggle for peace and justice in the Great Hulsterreich. Thank you. |

| Message | Herr Scholz, Whilst your idea is patriotic and admirable in theory, we believe military resources should be channelled into the Reichsheer and that a co-ordinated approach to defending our nation and the protectorate of Ostland is necessary. Therefore we will not approve this bill. Furthermore, Herr Scholz, following certain reports we have seen, we would like to remind you that links to communism are not tolerated in the Imperial Crownlands and that legislation is in place outlawing communist parties or those who follow such ideology. (OOC Link - http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=534215). Perhaps you would like to explain your true intentions and how they can better The Party and our nation.

| Message | Honourable Reichskanzler Nimitz, These accusations have followed me throughout my career as all members of this Reichstag know, so i assure you that these slanderous ad hominem attacks against me and my colleagues are not news to me. My views on nationalisation, on privatisation and on regulation, as all know are far from the party line, however to believe I seek to threaten this government in the way the Communists and Anarchists do is to believe in a serious falsehood. I ask that in future this Party and our nation take my proposed policies on face value, rather than use conspiratorial thinking to devalue what on close inspection is simply a different viewpoint, and nothing more.

| Message | Returning to the bill at hand, it is a shame that you will not support this bill. However the vote will go ahead as planned, in order to determine the viewpoints of the various party members on the matter. Thank you. Parteimitglied Heinrich Scholz |

| Message | Herr Scholz, We accept your explanation but just wish for you to be fully aware of Party rules and national law. We would not want you, your supporters or your family to fall foul of a breach. We will vote 'no' on the proposal for the reasons outlined above - national security and cohesion - and not based on any prejudice of your faction which we will watch with interest. Reichskanzler Leopold Nimitz |
