The Westminster System - A British Interactive AAR

[Andarak]

Only one Conservative PM died faster .

Churchill died, Macmillan got lung cancer, which I understood as "he will die in a moment", and Eden also had "health problems". So I guess that only Eden managed to withstand the curse layed upon him by High Necromancer Gaitskell.

Oh, "humanly" sounds truly appropriate for elucidating my thoughts, mon ami. Thank you very much.
*raises his hands*
"It's not humanly to be humane."

Well you'd say it's human to do/be X if you're talking about behaviour which is normal for humans. So "To hunger is human".

You'd say it's humane or humanely if you do something compassionate or empathetic towards your fellow man. So "I humanely oppose the death penalty".

 

[Antonine]

Thanks for doing the hard work for me, and apologies to the Liberals for almost disenfranchising them.

I think we should receive compensation for the stress and mental anguish caused by the temporary disenfranchisation. I'd suggest a top up of five votes would be suitable compensation

It is not that bad considering you are threatening non liberals, and want to deport tories

And btw, it is not possible to post her wihtout a game. So the "commie lurkers" are totally legitimate.

((That's a fair point. But for my case at least, I usually lurk around in the AAR's and seldom comment in them. And I used to comment in the Vicky 2 forum and CK II. one but no longer. So I suppose some of them might be like me, only lurking in other threads and posting here. And if they really are that desperate to make multi accounts, I feel more sorry for them haha.))

I just want to live in a politically harmonious society. And the Liberals are the oldest continuous party in the UK so we were here first and it's therefore everyone else who should have to leave to establish their political homelands elsewhere

Theb us English should get out of the British Isles, as the Britons and Celts settled Britain before juts, angelns and saxons. Or we should deport anyone who is not English to get a homogenous society. The Liberal party got tired and too secure staying in power, they need to be cast out for one term in order to refresh themselvrs

And it is ironic how you have become to more despotic than the worst rightist and even communist - hell even contra! Don't you claim to be so tolerant, want people to live their own lives and morally superior? Isn't that claim contradickting in itself, and with the rest you've said?

And countries like USSR, Nazi-Germany and PRC are pretty politically harmonius And with your line of thougts, we will end up like that eventually.

Just a reminder that polls close tomorrow at midday, with just 54 votes we're some way off last week's turnout and still 6 votes away from the 60 vote target!

Get to the polls!

I've said it before and I'll say it again: a Liberal dictatorship would be the best form of government. But since that would be impossible in practice, multi-party democracy is the next best thing.

Also, new condition for the Liberals going into coalition with anyone: PR without a referendum.

Why would it be impossible in practice, exactly?

I fully agree, we need those 6 more Tory votes!

I disagree with the dictatorship part. How can you claim to be more right and morally superior than the next? But I agree with the rest, but I doubt the rest of the Liberal party will support your demand

I fully agree, we need those 6 more Tory votes!

Why 6? Don't we already have a majority?

 

[Antonine]

Why would it be impossible in practice, exactly?

Because there's no way of guaranteeing that the person who becomes dictator will remain liberal

Like you yourself who want to deport Tories?

I think that we could settle for PR in the form of an additional member system. That way half the seats could be done via the Westminster System and the other half allocated proportionately - thus keeping the unique spirit of the AAR alive.

((I'm still expecting that we will end with another minority government, we need every vote we can get. I still haven't seen several Tory voters, I hope they will show up))

I mean that I am not sure the Liberal party would like to once more propose this, after the humilation of their last defeat. But I would love to have PR or semi PR!

Oh if we get one more vote we are more or less secured
