| Message | Mr Speaker, This bill is a disgrace and will lead to the ruin of the family unit in Luthori. We urge all parties to look at this and see the real aims of the Com-Lib party. Anarchy, dismantlement of the family unit, total disregard for the traditions of the nation. This is why nobody should support this party in forming the next government. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, This bill is a step in the direction of progress and individual liberty something which the reactionaries would prefer to ignore or destroy because it conflicts with their narrative of a patriarchical society in which women are subservient, homosexuals are forced to hide in the closet lest they face alienation, and general non conformists who think in manners that are beyond the primitive mindsets of those privileged enough to enjoy life at the expense of others. The right talks about how authoritarian and evil we communists are, but it seems as though the irony of such accusations was lost on them.... We do not under any circumstances wish to destroy the family unit nor do we wish to dismantle the traditions of this country rather we seek to get the state out of the bedroom and marriage in its entirety something which is the business of the individual alone. |
