| Message | I think TASP sounds more like a slur. Something my youth squad scouts can shout when pointing at the sandal wearing dreadlock wearing hippy slackers representing your party! The Peoples Populist Party is the arse-whuppin' est party in Beluzia... And we've got the Military backing to prove it! |

| Random quote: “The people's war isn't just a war of destruction, it is also a war of construction. We will build new facilities, new hospitals, new farms. We will seek to improve the lives of the people around us. This struggle will be as costly as the struggle against the bourgeois army, and indeed will be even more damaging to the enemy.” - Comrade X, former Hulstrian politician |
