    I have previously stated this but the reason I said nay was because the point of an Underhusen is to be equal and fair. Giving titles with little or low meaning just contradicts the vary existence of this board.

    Plus, what about the other citizens of Wintreath? Shouldn't they be entitled to something that gives them power and nobility? What about the other members of the Underhusen? They went through the same process as the Skrifa and the Speaker to get here. Why should they not get something to their name? This is why I, Crya, disapproves this bill as of its current form.

    PS Cymru :)

  • You realise that members of the Underhusen are Skrifa, right? Skrifa = Representative.

    Well, let's look at the UK, as this act essentially models them. There are 64 million people in the UK, and only about 500 in Parliament. Those 500 are styled as "The Honourable". I don't see riots going on over certain people being called 'The Honourable'.
