Date | 12:40:27, February 22, 2018 CET | From | Anarchist Party | To | Debating the Military reforms |
Message | Our party agrees with most of the bill. However we believe that article 5 of the bill could result in potential instability. By banning surveillance for reasons other than terrorism, the Liberalist and Futurist Party is putting Vanuku at a disadvantage in the event of a conflict. As such we urge all other parties to vote against this bill. |
