OK guys, im beginning to think the situation regarding coalitions is getting insane. John Geill was one of the most center, normal, and probably one of the best choices for Prime Minister in this damn senate but due to his unsavory coalition partners he lost (and I joined in the shitstorm). Im not sure whether making him prime minister was a good choice, considering his allies but I do know he himself was a decent person for the job.I think we need to stop fighting for a ruling coalition as its led to an unnatural coalition between libertarians and liberals, and most distressingly an (even temporary) alliance between a socialist group and a neo-fascist group

Thats the issue though, Geill was one of the most electable Senators here. Thanks to this system nobody is able to get elected really. I think at this point were tired and just want a damn PM, but I think Geill represented the interests of this Senate more than Hath. Geill was slightly left of center and has done alot for this country whereas Hath tried to make himself King.

My first bill! So what do you think?

It should be a blanket Endangered Species Act.

It should, but I don't have the capacity to write that so I just went with something easier.

I don't know what Wolfmanne is trying to do, the coalition isn't quite sure either. It's a filibuster of sorts, but he said that Hath will certainly be PM if elected. This vote is entirely serious.
