Validity: Must have abolished the Senate
Consequence from #299.2
Current draft:
Description:
In response to an environmentalist movement, Parliament recently instated a ‘breathing tax’ as part of sweeping taxation of harmful emissions. The public appear, however, to be less than thrilled with the idea of being taxed for breathing. A number of disgruntled ex-Senators have argued that the Bill would not have been passed had the Senate not been abolished.
Option 1:
Ex-Senator @@RANDOMNAME@@ opines, ‘Time and time again we see that Parliament is simply a circus of extremist and short-sighted ideas. The Senate, on the other hand, can be trusted to be a dignified and deliberative guardian of national interests. @@LEADER@@, you must reinstate the Senate, to keep the buffoons in Parliament from screwing up more than usual.’
Effect: Bills without an apology note are always vetoed by the Senate
Option 2:
Your Minister for Finance @@RANDOMNAME@@ sarcastically comments, ‘I wonder why we abolished the noble institution of the Senate in the first place? Oh, that’s right – because they were blocking important legislation left right and centre! @@LEADER@@, I think Parliament is doing a brilliant job without the Senate, in fact, we should congratulate ourselves with a pay rise.'
Effect: Ministers give themselves a pay rise whenever they are criticised
