| Message | We the Labour Party feels, the time is right to increase the strcitness of our border controls, purely to maintain Law and Order. We feel that we need better controls over who is in our country, and after recent levels of terroism we need to increase security as much as possible. Irene Edwards, Labour Foreign Minister |

| Message | The law as it is prevents most security issues, and further strictness at the border only serves to deter those who would aid our society from joining. Andrew Ryan |

| Message | It doesn't deter anyone from joining, it simply gives a stronger security check on people coming into the country so that we as a nation are a safer and stronger one in the face of the threat of teroism. We as a centre left party, which to protect and look after our people, all we ask is stricter and stronger security laws on immigration borders so that we can ensure safety for our people. Detering people and not having multiculturalism is something which we don't want to happen- we welcome foreign visitors and other people to our country but we wish to do so in a safe and dignified manner. Not the one currently in place. Irene Edwards, Labour Foreign Minister |

| Message | Currently we have minimum security, we ask for tight, strict and stronger security. We see this as a bill which simply protects our people and our country from danger- no more. Mike Sullivan, Labour Internel Minister |

| Message | After recent rumours, we must confirm this bill is not one of racisim or of negativly portraying multiculturalism, we simply want tighter security laws so that acts of terroism are impossible to achieve and so our country are safe from things such as terroism. We welcome Multiculturalism and Mixed Races, it is a key policy our Party holds and has practised for many years. Irene Edwards, Labour Foreign Minister |
