| Message | Speaker, Yesterday I spoke to one of the members of our religious minorities. She, a mother of two, said to me that se feared where our country is going. Most notably she feared what it would mean for her children if this act of religious conformity would pass. Because this is that it is. It is going backward, a cry for the old time of yesterday. Where small villages, in tight control under the church was in control. The United Labour front will not support act I-III of the social changes. We belivie in freedom of religion and that that freedom requires a secular society. We do not support act III (3) of the economical either since that would decrease liquidity cash ratio and the cash reserve ratio. That would in turn jeopardize peoples own savings, and as well be the prerequisite we need for a financial crash. We need to make sure that we have big banks, under heavy regulations and public scrutiny. That is why, if the Liberals back off this amendment, we would be happy to cooperate on bill that requires bank to have local branches in cities. We oppose act IV (4) of the economic proposition as well for two reasons. First it would aims would mean that working class people would become independent contractors without protection of current labour laws and against their will. Secondly we find It grossly undemocratic that the government funds and founds an NGO, especially one that represent businessmen. We oppose act V (5) as well, not because we oppose the intentions but because it is a waste of money. Instead we would like to see that money be invested in healthcare, education and services in rural side of our nation. Grants and loans might all be good, but if people want to live in the countryside they want to now that the police still can protect them, that they will get their post, that the school is good and that the healthcare central is good and that the ambulance will reach them in time. No loan can fix that, only the government through investment can. We oppose act VII (7) since “rationalization” means cuts! We will not under any circumstances risk us being dependent on a another nation for our defence, or risk being bullied by the great power of our area because our lack of defence. We need a strong, non-interventionist military ready to defend our nation and this proposition is surely as I stand here, not it! We do however support economic proposition I-II (1-2) and VI (6) since that would stimulate growth and create jobs. We welcome that Liberals adoption of Labour policy and hope to see more of it in the future. Selma Steinsdottir, Leader of United Labour Front |

| Random fact: Players who consent to a particular role-play by acknowledging it in their own role-play cannot then disown it or withdraw their consent from it. For example, if player A role-plays the assassination of player B's character, and player B then acknowledges the assassination in a news post, but then backtracks and insists the assassination did not happen, then he will be required under the rules to accept the validity of the assassination role-play. |
