| Date | 01:09:31, April 25, 2011 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Private Property Act of 3110 |
| Message | Rt Hon Duke Quinlan MP, Prime Minister of Hutori, Mr Speaker, this is one of our newly elected policies. Mr Speaker, we as the premier conservative party in Hutori are re-instating the idea of private property. No longer can an overbearing state simply swoop in and seize a property that a Hutorian citizen has worked hard to buy. When the state respects private property this will mean the people will respect the private property of others and their right to own property. Mr Speaker, we believe that this is a building block of Hutorian society that is desperatley needed. We will introduce this policy so that the Hutorian people no longer may have their hard earned property stolen by an opressive government. |
