| Message | Would it really kill you people to stop grouping proposals? We couldn’t care less if the gay people adopt children but we do not want to destroy the autonomy of the local communities. |

| Message | It is better to group proposals then to spam each single one of them - actually this is an act with 2 proposals of linked matters. |

| Message | Don’t be ridiculous, it’s absurd to force people to vote a certain way. Just to show you what a narrow minded statement you made I can tell that from our point of view they aren’t linked at all. |

| Message | Let's talk about narrow minded politics? I have to take this from a party that doesn't even know the term 'debate phase' in a proposal act and never made one single founded argumentation to ratify its bills. |
| Date | 15:43:57, November 02, 2005 CET | From | Union for the Rights of Christian Women | To | Debating the Anti-Homophobia Bill |
| Message | First, I would like to congratulate you for admitting that your statement was narrow minded. Second, I really admire the way you gratefully answered a question that wasn’t addressed to you, this shows respect above all. As far as your attempts to muck my politics are concerned, we understand your frustration, it’s hard for a party like yours to accept they been defeated by a group of women. |

| Message | It has enough support for, so it doesn't matter if it's grouped. |

| Message | Colleagues, to the URCW It doesn't surprise me at all that you only see what you want to see because I think its you who are frustrated, this bill where you voted in favour for when the CMP proposed it, it wasn't a 'group proposal' then he? huh... Me being narrow-minded, thats a funny thing, why exactly? to read your one-liners? I admitted myself being narrow-minded that? where? when? The frustration thing is somewhat strange, having women and men in our party... |
