True and FPM supported it fully and still supports it fully. And if any party is going to dare to re-introduce it, it will be FPM.
As for the timing, FPM is not going to do it while it feels it will be counterproductive when the likes of Batrak and LF, whose powers depend of sectarianism, will use it to further instill the wrong fears in the souls of Christians and scare them away from secularism.
