Description[?]:
| For the record, this bill will contain: An Act to reduce the border controls of this nation. An Act to allow refugees of extreme circumstances to enter the nation, as well as a clause to allow any refugee of Jewish ethnicity to enter the nation, with aid given to them. as soon as we have enough proposals to do so.

| Message | Why exactly do you suddenly become the party of these measures after opposing them for almost a year? And you are the official referee of peace time? This unfair flip-flopping on your part will come with reprocussions. |

| Message | Please, stop with the false nieveity. Did you really think it was our long term plan to unneccessarily oppress our own people? We put forward measures to ensure the Sixth Homeland while it was in its infancy. Now that it has grown and become more stable, we feel that these measures are unneccessary. You other parties all seem to assume it is a straight choice between having a law and not having it, and your refusal to realise some actions are neccessary only at certain unstable times leaves us worried about the future of this country. |

| Message | "Proposed: The nation imposes strict border control on visitors, with intensive security checks, to maintain law and order" We move there is no such strict control, isolationism is still at the fore. |

| Random fact: Particracy does not allow real-life brand names (eg. Coca Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft). However, in the case of military equipment brand names it is permitted to use simple number-letter combinations (eg. T-90 and F-22) borrowed from real life, and also simple generic names, like those of animals (eg. Leopard and Jaguar). |
