| Message | The National Conservative Party opposes: Article 1 :Everyone is allowed to reside permanently in this nation. The NCP believes that having an open door migration program is detrimental to culture, way of life and the environment. Firstly allowing everyone to enter this nation without proper checks will increase the risk of terrorism and also erode our cultural identity. Secondly with large population numbers - the environment will be affected. Greater demands on fuels, water, electricity contributes significantly to carbon emmissions. NCP supports Article 2:The government never offers international aid NCP supports the current value of Article 3 Only refugees that are victims of extreme circumstances are welcome; no aid is given to them. |

| Random fact: "OOC", "IC" and "IG" are commonly-used acronyms in Particracy. "OOC" refers to comments, discussions and actions which are out-of-character, meaning they are done player-to-player rather than party-to-party. "IC" refers to in-character interactions (ie. party-to-party). Similarly, "IG" means in-game, although this term may also simply refer to what happens in the actual game interface, as opposed to on the forum or elsewhere. "RP" just means "role-play". |
