| Message | De Populistische Patriottische Partij is weerzinwekkend. We cannot support this bill, which rolls back so many of the most vitally important developments in our nation's proud history of campaigning for civil rights. It is evident that the PPP's backward values have little backing in the country, and the very fact that they would propose such overreaching intrusions into the private, personal lives of Vanukeans demonstrates them to be utterly out of touch. We are extraordinarily proud to oppose this abhorrence of a bill. |

| Message | ZEG NEE! We urge our friends in the Grand Council to reject this bill in recognition of the cynical exploitation of the most vulnerable people in our society that the PPP is engaging in. |
