Message | Mr Speaker, private-public partnerships are as well subject to democratic accountability, therefore the Hon. Lady misses the point. We trust our coalition partners who have voted for this bill to handle this bad policy responsibly, but will warn incessantly about what would happen if the extreme left were to get in control of the administration of this libraries, namely censorship and removal of 'bourgeois literature'. Everyone can see that the left's ultimate goal is monopolizing public opinion to brainwash our children into beliving the Metzist paradigm of tyranny, oppression and slavery to the government. Thomas Trelawney MP Member for Loren RFR Parliamentary Leader |

Message | Mr Speaker This is non-sense oppressive right and left wing governments can implement their censorship through the private companies, your assumptious attitude is wrong and flawed.Please explain me the democratic accountability, according to your ideology which is one of the rare parts I believe in, democracy is not trustable because democracy gave us slavery,segregation and many evil things. Just because majority wants it, doesn't mean you can restrict minorities rights but in a national and local government co-op both local and national government is accountable, and also if we add some constitutional amendments about a ban on censorship and our problem can be solved. Aaron Kresteva MP Parliamentary Leader of FV |

Message | Mr. Speaker, I can assure Thomas Trelawney that we have no plans to ban or censor ideological bourgeois literature. In actual fact, after the revolution, we have plans to establish a Museum of Capitalism where citizens can come to learn all about capitalist theory and practice.
