I support this bill so strongly on the grounds that flan is delicious, and Atlasia would be the envy of the world for having such good taste.

This is creme caramel...

This is what I call a flan...

However, I will support neither...

I ask the Senate to consider the AWESOME Pavolva.

Damn it! I do love a napoleon, the only downside being it can be so difficult eat sometimes.

Considering the time that's passed, it can just be opened for a final vote by now anyway, so I'll just go ahead and do that, since it's effectively the same thing as opening a tabling motion.

We're now voting on the following bill. Please vote Aye, Nay, or Abstain.

Try those and see how you feel about cheescake... which, for the record I do love, but it's FAR from the best dessert.
