ToDebating the Prime Minister Act
MessageMr. Speaker,

I have a question for the Prime Minister, but really, anyone in the LNP can answer. Before I ask it, though, I have to give evidence that the LNP lies in their party description. We are giving objective analysis of their party, and here is their party description:

"Holds onto the views of classical liberalism.
a branch of liberalism which advocates civil liberties and political freedom with representative democracy under the rule of law and emphasizes economic freedom."

They have the correct definition of classical liberalism. They do not support civil liberties, political freedoms, and economic freedom. We are fair, and we believe they support representative democracy wholeheartedly. In fact, their support of democracy is something we admire about the LNP. They've had stretches of time where they've had huge amounts of power, and they never once changed the constitution to give them major advantages. Therefore, we aren't taking cheap shots at them, as the only party we see as a "political enemy" is the SNC because the SNC openly supports corruption. Anyways, let's get to the proof so that you can properly answer us.

They do not adhere to the principle of civil liberties. Civil liberties are freedoms. They're things you are allowed to do. If you promote civil liberties, you promote the idea of government making anything that doesn't directly harm the community legal. In their infamous "Social Rights" act, which took away rights ironically, they supported the criminalization of cannabis. Drug prohibition for adults denies civil liberties, and they took the farthest anti-drug approach they could take. Therefore, they probably do not believe in civil liberties. Drugs alone can't determine this, though, as there are many other things the LNP supports that doesn't support civil liberties and political freedom.

The LNP took an anti-women and anti-homosexual approach when it came to the military. They didn't give homosexuals their right to serve our nation in the military, and they do allow women to be in the military, but they don't support giving them battle positions. They remove the political freedoms of homosexuals and women here, and they take away their right to be patriots. This is against civil liberties and political freedoms.

The LNP also has a mediocre record on economic freedom. The principle of economic freedom isn't supported by everyone. The LNP is probably above average on this issue, but they go so far right on economics that they actually help the rich. We believe in a hands off approach to economics from government. The LNP supports giving the rich special benefits. In the "New Wat Act", they try to rid the Democratic Worker's Council from owning a business. They also stop public officials from striking. This is anti-freedom. The DWC should be able to run a business, but they shouldn't get favors from the government. Banning the DWC is protectionism for the rich, and we do not think the rich need to be protected by the government.

Therefore, it's a 100% fact that the LNP lied in the party description, and it is a 100% fact that they don't believe in classical liberalism. This isn't wrong that they don't adhere to classical liberalism. The only party that adheres to classical liberalism is the SFP. The problem we have is that they lie about it.

So now that we have clarified the facts, here is our question for Prime Minister Aaron Richardson I:

Because the LNP lies in their party description, how can the Solentian people feel assured that their government's current administration isn't lying to them in other ways?

MessageMr Speaker,

I am concerned about our foreign policy falling into the hands of lunatics. We need an administration that knows foreign policy. Therefore, I ask Foreign Secretary Jason Hill what his opinions are on these nations in terms of the foreign stage: Kelopia, Kafuristan, Istaliana, Badara, and Deltaria.

MessageMr Speaker,

We are concerned about the administration's attempts to increase our chemical weapon capacity. At what point does Secretary of State for Defense Derk Worthington say the LNP should request to go to war?

God helps us all. The DRP is looking forward to partnering with every other minority party to defeat the LNP and bring us back to sanity.

ToDebating the Prime Minister Act
MessageMr. Speaker,

The leader of the opposition and his party for many years have backed our party and help us secure government time and time again. Yes we believe in classical liberal points of view; our party is one of personal responsibility, we defend the rights of the religious people just like those who are homosexual by not giving anyone an upper hand.

The Liberal National Party is a broad church. You sometimes have to get the builders in to put in the extra pew on both sides of the aisle to make sure that everybody is accommodated. But it is a broad church and we should never as members of the Liberal Party lose sight of the fact that we are the trustees of two great political traditions. We are, of course, the custodian of the classical liberal tradition within our society, Liberals should revere the contribution of many people in our party who have pushed to political thought. We are also the custodians of the conservative tradition in our community. And if you look at the history of the Liberal Party it is at its best when it balances and blends those two traditions. Economic Liberalism and Social classical liberalism.

MessageMr. Speaker,

We have Senator Williams here trying to scare people, we will not go to war unless attacked and or our allies are attacked and a treaty calls for it.

MessageMr. Speaker,

We all know that we are one year into our jobs and we in the Foreign office are meeting with many nations and trying new treaties that is our job and on those counties you mention we have two of there forging minsters meeting later on this month and guess what it will be in the news.

MessageMr Speaker,

"we defend the rights of the religious people just like those who are homosexual by not giving anyone an upper hand."

The only rights you defend are the rights of the rich Conservatives. How is removing homosexuals from the military in any way not giving homophobes (like yourself) the upper hand?
