I hope you support this proposalit is called Government Watch Concil, you can also search it if you want.




Seeing how some leaders* are careless

Seeing how some leaders put their own ideals infront of the good of the people

Noticing how some governments torture their people without cause

I propose that a Government Watch Council aka. GWC be created in all member countries with these powers and NO others shall be granted or taken.

1. The Government cannot choose who is on the council
2. The Council cannot decide which leader is elected unless the country decides so.
3. The council can oust* a leader if the public expresses a strong oppinion* to do so.
4. The council can oust the leader if he/she doesn't obey the countries constitution.
5. The council can oust the leader if he is doing the country harm.*
6. The council can oust the leader for breaking ANY of the U.N. Resolutions.
7. The council can oust the leader for allowing imprisonment without probable cause
8. The council can oust the leader if he/she goes to war without probable cause.
9. The council can oust the leader if he/she limits freedoms in their private homes.
10. The council can oust the leader for approving any intrusion of privacy* in a private residance/building/or area.
11. The council can oust the leader if he/she approves execution without cause.
12. The council can oust the leader if they decide he/she has used any overly intrusive* methods to track or identify citizens.

A new leader if the old one is ousted will be brought to power by however the member country chooses leaders.

Hopefully with this council the government can take proper care of the people, especially dictators. With this council and its restrictions the government cannot make the life for its people unbearable and limits their potential to invade or breach human rights.

*as in the countries monarch/king/dictator/president etc.
*oust will be the official term for replace
*strong oppinion means by mass protest
*deffinition of harm is anything that will bring the standard of living down to the point of a third world country.
*intrusion of privacy means any devices that can take prictures, film, or record vioces in a private place, electronic surveilance is permitted for data gathering.
*Overly intrusive means DNA, urine, or barcoding BY tatoo.

And who guards the guards?

Deputy Speaker to the UN

This is dumb on many levels.

Most importantly it would reduce government to being puppets of some council.

E.g. Public opinion is that slavery is good. Council dismisses govt. Council introduces slavery and everyone gets a free slave of whatever ethnic group public opinion doesn't like.

-If your in the U.N. your government is already a puppet of some council =P

-Just think about this for a sec. Once the presidents or whatever you have term wears off then slavery would be a big part of a election campaign and the people would elect whover supports slavery. So in essence it would only speed up the enevitable =P

Also the council cannot introduce ANYTHING. Also they cannot just get rid of a leader because they feel like it.

:headbang:

no comment

and in the glorious revolution which soon follows we can guess that the puppetmasters would be first against the wall
