| Message | Rt Hon David Arkwright MP, Prime Minister of Hutori Mr Speaker, we just hope the United Party never have a chance to inflict their bigotry on Hutorians again. This legislation is deplorable and we oppose it wholeheartedly. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, I am glad that the true skin of the UP is finally showing. It would seem their true agenda is sending our country back to the dark ages. |

| Message | Rt Hon. Terry Benson MP, leader of his majesties most loyal opposition Mr Speaker, whilst other anti Christian parties may hover around parliament with their secular views, we commend the United Party on a strong and sensible bill. |

| Message | Mr Speaker. This is appalling, homosexual couples have the right to adopt just the same as heterosexual couples have the right. This is outrageous. I voted NO. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, I do not find it suprising that someone would drag religion into this. This is not a religious debate. It is a debate about the right of the Hutori people. But perhaps the HUP do not acknowledge homosexuals as "people"? |
