| Message | O título das propostas deve ser apresentado em PORTUGUÊS. Se quiseres discutir em Inglês com o GWP podes fazê-lo. Mas sendo a Lusitânia uma país cuja língua oficial é o Português, acho que não faz sentido os títulos das propostas de lei em inglês. |

| Message | Sorry Jack... As of this writing English is to be utilized for bills and documents. You approve the law yourself with your 131 members of parliament. |
