Noting that the OAM is failing

Be it resolved that we leave the OAM and join the OUM

Mr. Speaker,

Despite the fact that the OAM has recently encountered some trouble I do not think we should jump ship just yet. Some of the nations that have left just had problems agreeing with the general direction of the OAM and left because of a perceived lack of progress. However, in all the dealings I've witnessed the OAM has done exactly what it was meant to to, to unite micronations in a single place for civilised discussion. For this reason I believe we need not leave the OAM. However, I also believe we should look for new avenues of discourse in case the OAM does fall through.

I oppose this measure because it requires us to leave an organisation that has not wronged us in any manner and forces us into another organisation that we do not fully understand. I would not oppose a move simply to join the OUM but a dual measure of leaving the OAM and joining the OUM is a little too drastic a change.

I yield the floor.

Mr. Speaker,

For once I actually agree with my colleague from the SMP. We should not leave the OAM to join the OUM. We should join the OUM and evaluate our participation in both organisations for the next few months to determine which organisation will do the most good for Kirkland. I yield the floor.

All the votes being in and there being more no votes than yes votes, the resolution fails. The Motion to leave the OAM and join the OUM is rejected.

Final Vote: 1 yes, 4 no, 0 abstain
