| Message | Can I just say that I've tried to have the motto changed on two occasions and both failed. Secondly I will not support this new motto. OK countries aren't perfect but to me that motto suggests we're rubbish and striving for improvement- I doubt the people will like such a suggestion. |

| Message | Well how about... " Never Give In " ? Or " Lovely Lodamun " maybe, " Simple Things Make Life Beautiful " What about those? |

| Message | The Pariah Idealism also thinks "Another day" could work. OR we could have something in Latin like, Consectatio Pro Virtus - pursuit for courage Venustus Lodamun - lovely lodamun Simplex Res Planto Vita Decorus - Simple things make life beautiful Alius Diversus Diem - latinized version of "another day" |

| Message | I don't like this, but I suppose I will vote for it since the old motto is antiquated. The new one could always be changed. |

| Message | Thank you, If you come up with something I would not disagree with it being changed unless... it IS really bad... |
