| Message | All three of these proposals are absurd, absurd and absurd. They are further proof that the Labour Party continues to neglect our growing immigration problem. Further proof that both parties disregard national security. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, let us think logically. This bill simply cannot pass. Article 1, would see our country be depleted of it's resources with no guaranteed return. Article 2, would see our country subjected to covert operations, spy rings and what not. Article 3, would impose a great risk on national security as our immigration system is a complete shambles with citizenship and nationality being granted on the grounds of simply passing a test. If this proposal passes, we may aswell despose of passports altogether and let anyone in. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, the FFF need to understand how they have gone wrong in their logic. The first proposal is granted, a modern policy for a modern, wealthy hutori. Some of our international brothers and sisters need help, and deserve it. We cannot stand by and watch people starve unnafected, we have a moral duty to the international community, just as the international community showed us compassion in our neediest times. Furthermore, an embassy is not allowed to carry covert operations, the gentlemen is fear mongering! An embassy is simply a reprisentative of a nation, and all nations ought to be allowed to reprisent themselves on our soil. Furthermore, the third one has absolutely nothing to do with immigration, because it is about giving a passport to our own citizens! Mr Speaker, I would ask you to beseech the gentleman to read the articles before emptily raging about them. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, we believe that the people, the state of Hutori must come before the rest of the world. It is our duty as Nationalists to make our people great. It is our duty as Fascists to make this nation, great. Once our position amongst the world elite has been finalised and cemented, only then can we concern ourselves with the rest. The Labour Party must realise that their socialist policies are a joke, their dreams of a modern, wealthy Hutori will only be realised, should they disband and dissapear. Not only that but their policies will rarely pass parliament, their 'dinner party' policies will never be acted out, unless they do the right thing and abandon their allies, the Conservative-Libertarian party. Their coalition has proven a disaster. I also congratulate the man before me for offering a one paragraph arguement rather than the random outbursts that we have become used to. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, I ask the gentleman, under what premise does he value this nation above other? How can he value human life in one part of earth more than the same human life abroad? |
| Date | 10:29:55, May 22, 2010 CET | From | Fortunato's Fascist Formation | To | Debating the International Relations Act |
| Message | Mr Speaker, we love our country and we love our people. It is as simple as that, therefore we believe that the people, the state of Hutori must come before the rest of the world. We wish to protect and preserve our culture, our traditions and most importantly our race. We are not equal, we are supreme! |
