| Message | Madam Speaker, It is vitally important for our democracy that our freedom to demostrate is not infringed. As I said before this Senate when the Political Freedoms Bill was proposed, a Sate of Emergency can be declared by any government for any number of reasons and is not necessarily genuinely impartial. I urge all members to vote Yes to this proposal. Sen. Jacob Quirrel Minister for Justice, New Liberal Party |

| Random fact: Any RP law granting extraordinary "emergency powers" or dictator-like powers to a government must be passed by at least a 2/3rds majority, but (like all RP laws) may always be overturned by a simple majority vote of the legislature. |
