Bill: Repealing the HLC Reforms
Details
Submitted by[?]: Socialist Party
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: October 4742
Description[?]:
| Those reforms were mysteriously passed during a parliamentary session late at night and we didn't realise what was going on and the extent of these reforms. If they we were noticed by the "colleagues" of the HLC that they planned to pass all that, then we would have showed up and voted no. Also, we want to condemn the attitude of the CWP who abstained on reforms transforming our country into a theocratic. Here, we propose to cancel all this and make the right thing. |
