| Message | Either way, this won't pass and we suggest that Beluzia Renovation stop proposing anti-democratic riders that are unpopular and we centre all power in one's hands, creating an authoritarian democracy |

| Message | The UFOB don't believe abortions should be permitted in the Second Trimester. At this point life is formed, and therefore we see it as a murder. |
