| Message | Mr Speaker, We see the DSU has voted against this bill. They are in favour of more privatization in key industries, yet something that is more efficient run privately as the media is what the DSU considers a step too far? How utterly ludicrous, the DSU seems to have their priorities in a very, very strange place currently. Bernhart Günzburg, Leader of the Progress Party & Chairperson of the Progress/Radical Alliance |
