Yep, we're back. Not sure how many members there currently are, but we had 2.5 MPs in the last parliament.
Here is our manifesto:
1. Parliament is a place for debating, proposing legislation and running the country. It is also, of course, a place for metaphorical mud-slinging. Upon our election to the hallowed halls of the NS Parliament building, we shall make sure that no longer will the mud-slinging be purely metaphorical. MPs can, nay, MUST, use any opportunity to throw the glorious brown substance into the faces of the opposition.
2. Spam shall be declared the international dish of this forum.
3. Our opponents shall be violently oppressed in the name of absurdity.
4. In the spirit of the British Parliament circa 1800, no legislative debate shall be undertaken without the leader of the debate and no fewer than half the Members of Parliament being pissed out of their skulls on hard liquor.
5. Gordon the Gopher (Google it if you don't know) shall be declared honorary life president of this forum.
6. Discussions on serious topics (ie. music, sex, humourous news articles, etc) shall be banned. Religious and political debates will still be allowed, on the basis that they aren't serious.
7. Domestic pets (cats, dogs, snakes, turtles, bears, wolves, etc) will be banned from running for the position of Member of Parliament.
8. The entire budget of the NS Treasury will be converted into pennies, melted down, and a statue of Eddie Izzard will be constructed with the metal.
9. Erm...
10. That's it...
When the required number of members is reached (two, I believe), could someone please post in the election thread to make our presence known. Ta very much.
