It is out of the question for us to accept such an attitude on the part of the government on issues that are so fundamental for us and for those who may be called upon to put their own lives at risk in a conflict, the outcome of which is unfortunately never known at the outset (1015) It strikes us as unacceptable that the government is settling for responses that are not only ready made but, let us admit it, partisan along the lines of “We are consulting parliament”.
Il est impensable que nous acceptions un discours gouvernemental sur des questions aussi fondamentales pour nous, mais aussi pour ceux et celles qui éventuellement risqueront leur vie dans un conflit dont on ne connaît malheureusement jamais l'issue avant le début des hostilités (1015) Il nous apparaît inacceptable que le gouvernement se contente de réponses toutes faites et, disons-le, partisanes du genre: «On consulte le Parlement».
