| Message | Well, this is certainly illiberal. I'm afraid I must vote no. Teacher-led prayer, perhaps we could negotiate on, but by no means will we allow blasphemy to become a punishable offense. |
| Date | 15:54:28, November 20, 2016 CET | From | НДПСМ | To | Debating the Religious Decency Act |
| Message | We, as a liberal party, oppose bills which aim to change the laws made by our predecessors, such as Duke Kirill Alekseev and Duke Nikolay Kirillov, who worked hard for many decades to transfer our nation from a communist totalitarian dictatorship of Secretary Zhukov and the authoritarian neoliberal regime of the Imperial Alliance to a truly democratic and liberal nation that is the modern Trigunia. Do not take us wrongly here sir, our party is very religious, but we will ensure the liberal state that our party strived to achieve is preserved. Chairman of the Committee of Ministers, Count Vladimir Borisov |
