| Message | Mr. Speaker, Due to articles 1, 2, and 4, we, the Hosian Democratic Union, cannot vote for this bill. Once the immoral and sexually-explicit and pornographic clauses of this monstrous and disastrous bill are removed from the face of the earth will we reconsider. I also find it questionable that economic clauses and social clauses are put together in the same bill despite having no relevance to one another. Emily Buckley MD Leader of the HDU |

| Random fact: It is the collective responsibility of the players in a nation to ensure all currently binding RP laws are clearly outlined in an OOC reference bill in the "Bills under debate" section of the nation page. Confusion should not be created by displaying only some of the current RP laws or displaying RP laws which are no longer current. |

This is the kind of jingoistic ideology Zardugal would bring to the Security Council. They will throw countless lives away in pursuit of former glory." - Prince Akhaias, former Coburan royal |
