What is this?/I'm confusedHi there. If you're confused as to what is going on here then you are probably new to this section of TSR. This is a Model House of Commons, a forum where we emulate the structure of the Real Life House of Commons as an excuse to debate politics.
If you are seeing this and you want to get involved in the debate, please feel free. You do not need to join a party, get approval or join any group to get stuck in right away. If you enjoy it and you do want to join a party then you can do so here. If you have any questions or need any help please message me. I am the current speaker of the house and part of my role involves offering impartial advice to new members so I will always be happy to answer what questions you have. Alternatively, you can read the new members guide to get advice on a wide range of issues.
Note: Please refrain from making comments about how we spend our free time. It is our free time to spend.

Surely the poor wording in this bill must be amended, due to the fact that it is far too vague and could be exploited.
2.2 Statesbuilt and maintained within the United Kingdom with the help of money sourced from a foreign government is subject to immediate closure
A nay from me. -

Nay. Especially since you're still persisting with the bill despite your own sources telling us there's a lack of information on the topic.

Nay. Any place of worship, like any organisation, really, should have to economic freedom to be able to choose their money sources.
Also, this bill fails to do anything about the thousands of places of worship that'll be shut down if this were to be enacted. The government isn't offering to replace their sources of money – that'd be ridiculous. But to shut down so many places at once?? What'll happen to them? -

This remains contrary to the concept of freedom of religion, it might be less discriminatory now but it is still an OTT way of dealing with a genuine issue.

I'm happier with this. Still think closure is a bit harsh if the religious institution can exist without foreign funding. And I believe that for the purposes of this act, it should be made clear whether the Vatican is recognised as a foreign government.
