This.

And, to your earlier point Roavin, while yeah, it would be nice to discuss this ... ya know ... not now, this hasn't been an issue *until* now.

I'm happy to have a discussion on asking the judge to step down from a political party. BUT — Far won't be held to that standards because his nomination is already in place. It would be unfair to appoint him to the position, then pass legislation saying he has to leave the TIL and forcing him to do so.

These are the reasons that I would like Far and/or the Cabinet to provide answers to these issues as opposed to those willing to rubber stamp this nomination distracting from the point that I'm trying to raise.
