Message | No. This would include the removal of punitative tariffs on goods produced in unsafe, or even slave labour, conditions, if the originating nation didn't tariff our goods. We will not stand for that. |

Random fact: It usually takes up to an hour for election results to generate. During this time, the "Next Election" date is put forward a month, which is confusing. Do not worry! In a short time, the election result will generate and the "Next Election" date will then correct itself. |
