Message | Mr. Speaker, I speak as both a member of and a representative of the working and middle-classes - we people believe in parliamentary democracy. We settle our differences by talking about them, discussing them and having debates - we don't take up arms or fight one another. Militias mean violence and terror. The people of this country want a peaceful society so they can go about the daily business without fearing that they'll get hurt. Michael Marshall (in-coming Prime Minister) WPP |
