| Message | Mr. Speaker, I still don't see the need for this bill. Under the current law, MP's can still pretty much say whaterver they want as long as they are not saying any damaging lies. I fell to see how giving to MPs the right to tell damaging lies would be a good idea in any way. Furthermore, why should Members of parliament not be protected speaking against Judiciary & our Armed Forces? What does the Labour Party define as '' speaking against Judiciary & our Armed Forces''? -Rebecca Gillibrand MP for the National Progress Party |
