Message | We believe in freedom of the media to publish what they shall please. Does some hurtful liable get passed? Yes, but we cannot let that get in the way of a core tenet of freedom, even if it means that your MPs and my MPs have to deal with a crazy independent journalist every once in a while. |

Random fact: Party candidates for head of state elections are not visible to the public. This means that you cannot see who will run and who will not, which adds another strategic element to the elections. |
