| Message | Mr Speaker Are we to be surprised at the fact that the social Democratic League chooses to stand with the terrorists rather than with our great country? Shame on each and every one of them who voted against this bill! This would make our country safer and show that we take a stand against terror around the world! Shame on the Social Democrats! Shame! |

| Message | Mr Speaker, The DUP supports this reform although we see why other parties stand against it. I agree with the Moderates that it would make the country safer and take a stand against terrorism. If they want to blow up our citizens then they can suffer for it. Jean Williams Justice Candidate |

| Random fact: Particracy allows you to establish an unelected head of state like a monarch or a president-for-life, but doing this is a bit of a process. First elect a candidate with the name "." to the Head of State position. Then change your law on the "Structure of the executive branch" to "The head of state is hereditary and symbolic; the head of government chairs the cabinet" and change the "formal title of the head of state" to how you want the new head of state's title and name to appear (eg. King Percy XVI). |
