Censure Motion
-
Even in dark times, we not only dream, we do. We not only see what has been, we see what can be. I beg your forgiveness, too, for the sins of omission on the part of our party leaders who did not respond adequately, as well as by the victim herself; a woman like me, our Premier.
Tusk Deputy’s spokemanship has strong legacy of accomplishment that needs to be appraised and honored. This is also speaking with integrity and truth. I support this censure motion for seven days, and my personal talks with the Councillor have been always ensured since the incident.
We shall overcome, going forward together.
Emma Granger,
Councillor for Montenbourg -
I do believe the Right Honourable Tusk and his statement there was miscommunication. We all know phrases meaning one thing in another country can mean something else entirely or come across totally differently in another. I do not believe there was any ill intent meant. Therefore I will be voting against this censure though this may be a lesson in the art of international communication and considering what a phrase can mean internationally when using a local phrase or idiom in the European Council but I do not think we should be punished for honest innocent mistakes.On a personal not you have no doubt heard the tragic news of my son being the victim of an evil anti-autistic hate crime in the Duchies and fighting for his life in hospital therefore my deputy Skye Hook will be attending the sessions for voting purposes until such a time I can return after my son hopefully by gods will recovers from his horrific attack. But in the meanwhile I must now serve my family at home and be with my child in the hospital and making sure all my family is okay at home , I hope you all understand but it would be wrong of me to continue in my role as if nothing is wrong at home in my family. Thank you
