Message | Mdm. Speaker, As this bill aims to remove autonomy away from locals and marginalize them with a single unitary policy, we are in opposition to it. - Lyn Kopp Chancellor of the Kingdom of Hutori Ambassador of the Ataraxian Confederation |
Date | 20:00:53, January 08, 2018 CET | From | Hutori Party | To | Debating the Water Improvement Act of April 4330 |
Message | Madam Speaker, Setting a federal standard on the quality of drinking water will ensure that all Hutorians are drinking water that is safe for them to consume. I know her stance on decentralization, but surely she can understand that it is important to make sure that Hutorians are drinking water that is safe. Stan Harper Leader of the Conservative Party MP for West Carter |
Date | 20:02:46, January 08, 2018 CET | From | Liberal Party of Hutori | To | Debating the Water Improvement Act of April 4330 |
Message | Mdm. Speaker I've heard of arguing for arguments sake but is the Chancellor honestly going to stand in this House and claim local autonomy means more to her then ensuring all Hutorian have access to the same equal standard of clean drinking water? Isaac Woodbury Leader of the Official Opposition Leader of the Royalist Party of Hutori MP for Acton Groomsbridge |

Message | Mdm. Speaker, The price of local autonomy is local responsibility. - Lyn Kopp Chancellor of the Kingdom of Hutori Ambassador of the Ataraxian Confederation |
Date | 20:26:29, January 08, 2018 CET | From | Liberal Party of Hutori | To | Debating the Water Improvement Act of April 4330 |
Message | Mdm. Speaker I'm sure the good people of Hutori will be encouraged to know what the Chancellors political agenda means more to her then the health and well being of its citizens. Isaac Woodbury Leader of the Official Opposition Leader of the Royalist Party of Hutori MP for Acton Groomsbridge |
Date | 20:57:55, January 08, 2018 CET | From | Scientian Enclave | To | Debating the Water Improvement Act of April 4330 |
Message | Mdm. Speaker, My political agenda? Why am I the only one with a political agenda? Isn't it also a political agenda to want to centralize water treatment services? Or are the opposition immune from bias and only have the "best interests" of Hutorians? Are we to start attacking the Royalists claiming they don't care about local opinions? Oh wait, my bad, the Royalists and the rest of the opposition are the representatives of local opinions. We Ataraxians, who were voted in by the majority of the participating voters (the others chose not to vote, I guess it's our fault right?) are just misguided communalists who should just stay quiet in their holes and never try to bring about controversial changes. - Lyn Kopp Chancellor of the Kingdom of Hutori Ambassador of the Ataraxian Confederation |
