| Message | Neither does changing it to Greek in an Anglophone nation. Please, please, please, do not start destroying this nation's constitutional identity either. I am quite sure that the people would prefer legislation that would improve their lives, something that the left-wingers are not actually doing anyway, rather than further meddling with our national identity! (OOC: This is quite a pathetic proposal. Not only have you proposed a motto in Greek which doesn't make sense at all in an English country, but this is an anthem in the real world. Particracy is supposed to be unique). |

| Message | OOC: If you look at the world, most mottos are either in Latin, Greek or French. Do you see people from non-Latin speaking countries (which is basically every country in the world, expect for The Vatican) complaining that their identity is lost because they have a Latin Motto? Do you see the people of England complaining that their motto is in French? Anyway, at least it makes more sense than our current one. |
