| Message | His Grace is disappointed that the Novy Smer leaders, despite acknowledging the need for population control by supporting the Breeding of the Peasants Act (see http://82.238.75.178:8085/particracy/main/viewbill.php?billid=26854), are now attempting to introduce legislation which would increase breeding rates amongst the very worst classes of peasants.
