Description[?]:
| Mr Speaker, For to long the people of Athlorcaea have been treated as dumb sheep under socialist regimes. Not only do they obviously believe that politicians are better at raising children than parents by zealous over-regulation of freedom things such as alcohol and tobacco. They are also treating adults as if they were children in need of parental discipline. People are not allowed to have a smoke when they see fit. This is ridiculous, and it must change.
