| Message | LDP of Luthori Secretary to the Imperial Diet, the Rt Hon. Daniel Bowman: "Mr Speaker, Like many Luthori citizens, the members of the LDP of Luthori hold dearly the right to appeal to a higher court in the judicial system. It is our humble opinion that outlawing appeals sets a dangerous precedent and would only be supported by a fascist-leaning organisation. As such, we oppose this proposal whole-heartedly. I yield." |
| Date | 05:13:28, July 18, 2009 CET | From | Luthori Republican Party | To | Debating the Reforming Justice Act |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, We rise in opposition. This bill would allow socialists and communists and progressives to infiltrate our judicial system and act as activists, and unjustly sentence conservatives to prison. With the APS bills proposed, we gravely fear this. I yield. |
