Message | Rt Hon Duke Townsend MP, Hutorian Conservative Party Leader, Mr Speaker, i believe the proposed is very dangerous. I believe government needs to look after its citizens and by abandoning the status quo - it would very much compromise such an arrangement. While the HCP has always been an advocate of small government i believe this would take it too far from our point of view. I believe government is necessary but we strive to ensure it is not invasive. I am sure the people of Hutori would be gracious for the status quo if we ever did go to war. |
