Opposition Stance
The primary opposition is directed at the Commission’s actions, whose "substantive proposal" is unacceptable. The criticism is both substantive and procedural, as the Commission’s proposal completely alters what the speaker’s group actually desires. The opposition is intense and concerns the very core of the draft bill.

Collaboration Style
The collaborative style is evident at the in-group level, signaled by the use of the pronoun "we." There is a lack of openness to compromise regarding the commission's proposal, which is deemed to completely change the substance.
