Bill: Fail-safe Act

Details

Submitted by[?]: Humanist Party

Status[?]: passed

Votes: This bill is a resolution. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Voting deadline: August 4545

Description[?]:

We note the potential of a new bill to introduce a monarchy system to our nation, while we are strongly opposed to such a bill or the idea of a monarchy we wish to make plans to protect the rights and freedoms of our citizens in the event of such a flawed plan being passed.
We propose the following rights to protected from even the reach of a monarch to ensure we do not fall further into a fascist state;


1.) The right of the presumption of innocence.
A person is considered innocent until proven otherwise in a trial with a jury of their peers.

2.) The right to protection from arbitrary arrest.
A person's freedom should not be violated without good cause or by the whim of a monarch.

3.) The freedom to live freely.
Without arbitrary government interference into private and personal matters.

4.) The right of freedom of movement.
A person has the right to leave their nation if they so desire.

5.) The right of freedom.
A person has the right to be a freeman and to not be enslaved.

We propose this law introduces a ‘fail-safe’ that prevents any monarch from removing the most basic of rights of citizens, this law shall be written into our constitution, if this law is violated the monarch is to be removed from power immediately and given a fair trial for his actions against the people, the punishment if found guilty is a lifetime imprisonment and the seizing of wealth which is to be given to the government.

Could all parties please debate on the justice bill and monarchy act.

Furthermore to this, we will not take away the most basic of rights. We will make sure that all rights are protected.

MessageWe will withold our support to ensure this act does not become part of the constitution.

We need a credible framework for a state of emergency before we can agree on that. All rights must be curtailable in such an emergency.

MessageWe fail to see how a state emergency would effect the rights of citizens, unless you wish to arbitrarily arrest citizens, imprison without trial or enslave them there is no need to reject this bill.

Leader of the Humanist Party.

MessageLet's assume a war starts. Automatically we would have to arrest all citizens of the enemy country within Solentia without looking at each case through a court.
Arresting people without trail is absolutly necessary during an emergency in order to give our soldiers and police to act freely.

ToDebating the Fail-safe Act
MessageIn such a case it would not be arbitrary, it would be a necessary evil for the sake of national security.
This bill does not take that away, it simply states that people cannot be arrested or held without a good reason. We would argue that if it was in the best interest of national security it would be a good reason. Though the fair treatment of captors would still be argued for.

W. Bowman.
Leader of the Humanist Party.

MessageAny limitation of the power of the state in an emergency will cost this country dearly. In case there will be a nuclear we have to shoot any looter at once without a lengthy court session.
We need the absolut power during an emergency.

MessageAbsolute power should never be given to a single person and a single person alone.
If such a decision was made by a council we would have less of a concern, but still a substantial concern.

W. Bowman.
Leader of the Humanist Party.
