| Message | Mr Speaker, "unacceptable... unacceptable!" they are the only words that Mademoiselle Senar seems to utter. She finds law and order unacceptable, trying to make peoples' live more secure is unacceptable, getting to grips with political terrorists and insurgents who run rife in Terrarokka is "unacceptable" But I suppose if people were dancing naked in the high street and having relations with their close ones she would find that acceptable. Pray tell if I am wrong. Darius Darvos |

| Message | Mr Speaker. there are difference between public safety, and dispersing any group that held a communist or a left-wing view, there are difference between rule of law and pure fascist. We already have large problems in Baltusia, we don't need this law. Public Defenders League Female Co-Leader : Sonia Senar |

| Random fact: By default the head of government is the ultimate authority within a national government. In general terms, heads of government are expected to consult with cabinet colleagues (including those from other parties) before making significant decisions but they remain responsible for government action. |
