| Message | "While we could favour some of these proposals in order to show to women that men's work is not easy, we think the bill as a whole could lead to diplomatic problems and internal violence. About certain absurd, anti-freedom aspects of our current legislation, the bills proposed by our party and the Tukarese Democratic Union will rapidly solve this situation.
