I strongly oppose this. You know we are working on a clarification of
Frederik's proposal, and there are two new proposal on the table getting

This kind of behaviour on your part, are the ones which give credit to those
accusing you of twisting the voting system to your liking, and as i was
outraged when those accusations where made against you, i would much have
preffered that you didn't act in such a way.
