| Message | We disagree with both articles. We should not restrict people's right to marry who they like, and refuse to recongise marriages made outside Jakania. I would imagine that it would be pretty distressing for married couples to find out that there wedding is not valid when they return home. We also feel that people have the right to go around naked, if they so wish, and to restrict their right to do so would be a breach of their human rights. Rhys Williams, leader of the Socialist Peopes' Party. |

| Message | We believe in traditional values, and are therefore going to fight for a proper heterosexual marriages to secure our moral faith in society. That the socialists support the moral degradation and destruction is not something new.. Foreign couples that don't follow domestic guidelines, such as polygamous relationships, or homosexual ones. If people wish to be nude in public, be my guest, but consult your local authorities not me. Matt Fitzgerald, Chairman PPJ. |
