| Message | We oppose Articles 1 and 3 on the grounds that disempowering Crownland governments is contrary to HNP doctrines of local empowerment, we find Article 2 abhorrent in that it denies critical support to a very important section of Greater Hulstrian society that is also very important to our economic wellbeing, and we object to Article 4 on the grounds that it promotes sexuality on television, which the HNP considers deterimental to society. |
