| Message | Every one of these 5 articles would do great harm to our citizens. This bill must not be put into law. It is clear from your constant attempts to prevent proper research into prescribed drug that you have a personal vendetta against them. This Assmebly has already voted NOT to change the law regardin prescriptions, you just keep on proposing it, clearly hoping one party will forget to vote on some occasion. |
| Date | 19:20:21, April 13, 2006 CET | From | New Theta | To | Debating the Regulation Reform Act |
| Message | Not at all. The people of Dranland want these reforms and they will see that the Theta party share their views. Vote against this bill and you vote against the people whom you are here to serve! |
