| Message | I take serious offence to this bill. "Halting Commie Unionist". Yes we are a socialist/communist party, but our intentions and aspirations have only ever and will only ever be in the best intentions of Baltusia and the Baltusian people. To introduce this bill, attempting to have a swipe at us and the SPB is a disgrace, and your political snipe at the expense of the rights and liberties of the people of our proud nation is disgraceful. |

| Message | "I take serious offence to this bill" Is it because you're overly sensitive? The title of the bill nor nothing in its contents refer in any way to your party. Commie could equally refer to any party, barring the Pantians, since they refer to anyone who disagrees with them as communists. Finally, there are TWO socialist parties in this nation. What makes you think that the one with no seats is the target of your imagined attack? |
