| Message | We shall oppose this measure. It is fine if they stay at the nudist beaches and colonies and that is the way we prefer it. They are not causing harm to anyone and they are segregated. Article 2 we won't support because not only does it not belong with this type bill but it'll also hurt the tourism industry. |
