Condemnation of the Coup in Eastern Haane

Inquista

Speaker Firoux spent the entire wild encounter adjusting his hair after Bauer ever so rudely came to sniff it. The Speaker meticulously fiddled with his black curls and carefully placed them in the most aesthetically-pleasing presentation. Speaker Firoux then studied his hair using his phone's camera, and then grabbed a Marrakechian oil spritzer from his suitcase and sprayed it into his hair.

How rude of that woman to cause such an disturbance, particularly on a day when I was having such a good hair day. I must commend Councillor Plessis for his cat-like reactions in pressing that panic button. I also have to commend Council Security for keeping us safe. Our security has come very far since the days of Mr. Eric Pickles being kidnapped from this chamber. May God rest his soul. I would like to remind everyone that our self defence seminar will be happening next week Tuesday at 6PM. After this incident, I expect to see you all there. I'm bringing snacks.

Phew, anyway. Councillor Bourgaize, per the Elected and Accountable Council Act, you are the legitimate and only Councillor of your country. I don't believe that woman was elected to her position by the Haanean people, and I doubt her appointment met any of criteria stipulated in the aforementioned act. Thus, until that happens, you are your country's Councillor.

I am quite sorry for the disturbance and the time that this has wasted, but as Eastern Haane is to leave the European Union quite soon, I believe that there is no real use for this act anymore.

I hereby request it to be withdrawn.

Martin Bourgaize
Councillor for Eastern Haane

Inquista

No apology is needed, Councillor Bourgaize. There is no way you could have foreseen the events which have since unfolded. This bill has been formally withdrawn from further consideration.
