„The Council then sent the file back to Parliament at the beginning of the vacation season, where it was difficult to secure the necessary majority to dismiss it again“
What are we paying these people for? It should be obvious that it is Part of your duties being a member of parliament to monitor and act on stuff while being on vacation.
When I have vacation, I don’t want to be bothered with work related stuff either. I understand their want for a vacation, and they should not be blamed. The system that allows this chicanery is at fault here.
I don't want to be bothered while on vacation either, but if something happens at work that needs my specific attention someone will find me.
For fuck's sakes we can't be taking server rooms more seriously than democracy.
When a server is down, they want to find you. When they want to pass a law which you will vote against, how hard do you think they're trying?
I mean how are there not people in your office, people you work next to, people who know about which issues you ought to be made aware of, that can reach out to you?
