The woman who claims to be before me is sick again. I take her role again.
She has talked about the idea of this motion. She did not want to propose it now because she said it did not matter, and that it had been resolved. But now she is sick. I am sure bad people were manipulating her into not proposing this motion. I am not a bad person, I am not manipulated by bad people. I am independent, I am good, and I will bring the happiness to the people of Europe, and prevent bad people from doing things to them.
This is an example of a very bad thing, done by very bad people, who trick good European people. We must get rid of these bad people. They are not good for Europe; they will only bring misery to people. I don't want people to be miserable. The bad people cannot trick me into believing that!
I am thus submitting this motion. Today is an auspicious day, and now is an auspicious time, as well, according to my numerologist, so many spirits will be attracted and the bad people will not be able to interfere, and will be banished and made to go away.
Akem Linek
Deputy Councillor for the Republic of Istkalen -
I am now recovered. This motion is probably, at this point, intended as a form of election interference by Deputy Councillor Linek, and I will not support it unless other Councillors demonstrate that they believe it not to be election interference. I will, however, endorse it, and it should be considered as being submitted by me - Linek was acting as attorney - I want debate on this.
