[Lamaredia]

"Order, with a vote of twenty ayes to zero nays and one present, the Food Waste Reduction Act passes and will be sent on to the HoT.

With a vote of seventeen ayes to one nay, one present and two abstentions, the School Lunch Act passes and will be sent on to the HoT.

Now begins a period of oral questions for 24 hours."

[Bigoted]

I move to end oral questions and move on to the next bill.

[Maklohi Vai]

"Mister Speaker, I imagine the Prime Minister can already guess what my question will be, so I will be brief. How does the Prime Minister plan to reduce inequity in Galatean society, through methods other than taxation?"

[Roosevetania]

"Mister Speaker, I imagine the Prime Minister can already guess what my question will be, so I will be brief. How does the Prime Minister plan to reduce inequity in Galatean society, through methods other than taxation?"

"Mister Speaker, what does the Honorable Member want? I do support taxing the rich, but there is no magic equality machine and I am not a communist."

"Mister Speaker, what does the Honorable Member want? I do support taxing the rich, but there is no magic equality machine and I am not a communist."

"Mister Speaker, I believe the Prime Minister has proved my point. If he believes that the only way to reduce is inequity is to be a communist, then by goodness, let us all be communists. I've got a bit of a head start, but of course you can all catch up.

Mister Speaker, I do have a follow-up question: what about wealth redistribution? What about a commitment to government spending? The possibilities are myriad."

[Lamaredia]

"Order, debate will now start on the Time Zone Act and last for 48 hours."

[Maklohi Vai]

"Mister Speaker, I submitted this bill to clarify a crucial step in Galatea's move to become a full member of the international community. I have received no comments and look forward to a majority in favor. If there is anything I can do to address my fellow members' concerns, I am at their service."

This bill, is part of the coordinated efforts of establishmentarian politics to tie us to the EU behemoth and away from those who we are closest with, our Hellenic brethren just across the sea of whom we have significant economic ties exist in the +2 time zone. We, geographically, belong in the +2 time zone. Yet the member wishes for us to tie ourselves to the boot heel of Germany, for what cause?!

"Mister Speaker, I believe the member is mistaken. We are more geographically aligned with the +1 time zone. But on the economic question, I hear his concerns. Germany and Greece are not the only two countries. Greece for sure is a closer partner in many ways, but on balance, the value of what we gain in the +1 zone is much greater than that in the +2.

"The value of casting away our fraternal ties to our Hellenic brothers, further complicating our trade and social relationships between our two countries!? It's absurd, and quite honestly, I refuse to allow this disruptive law to be implemented in our country!"

[Maklohi Vai]

"Mister Speaker, if the honorable member wishes to observe his own personal time zone, he shall enjoy that right."

[Van Hool Islands]

"Mister Speaker, the idea of time zones is racist, heteronormative, homophobic, sexist, xenophobic, and overtly exclusionary. There is not but one time zone. The Human Time Zone."

[Lamaredia]

"Order, debate will now start on the European Union Referendum Act, and will last for 48 hours."

[Nova Anglicana]

"I believe that this act will allow the citizens of our great nation to decide for themselves the benefits and costs of joining the European Union and I look forward to a vigorous debate."

[Eibenland]

"I am strongly in favor of EU membership. I look forward to having the opportunity to campaign and make the case for this historic decision."

[Lamaredia]

"Order, a vote on the following bills will now start and last for 24 hours."
The Time Zone Act: [ ]
The European Union Referendum Act: [ ]
