| Message | Mr Speaker, I remember the days... oh i remember them well. The days when the right wing press called my party "Communist". They also, in a fit of hysteria, accused me of wanting to "seize private property". Now their pet party the White Rose, lined up with some of their right wing chums in the LDU, are trying to allow seizure of private property for corporate use. I respect some of the capitalists opposite, such as the Honourable members from the Conservative Party. I fundamentally disagree with them on many issues, but they are genuinely concerned with improving Luthori for all of the people here. By contrast the White Rose and the LDU are no capitalists, no, of course not, they're nothing but slaves for their corporate paymasters, and that's all they'll ever be Ben Sullivan (TUSC Leader) |
