| Message | "The socialists hate of their own nation is pretty basic. That the Alliance, who paints itself as a moderate party should be at the forefront of anti-Patriotism is strange. Next is you promulgate people burning flags too?" |

| Message | "This is all a bit rich coming from a party that calls itself the Progress Party. You can't get people to love their country by making them sing the national anthem in school. You can make them love their country by making the country a better place to live - a fairer, more tolerant nation. That can never be achieved with the Progress Party in power." -John Biggins |

| Random fact: In cases where players introduce RP laws to a nation and then leave, Moderation reserves the discretion to declare the RP laws void if they appear to have fallen into disuse. In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left. |
