| Message | Mr. Speaker, We have to respect religious convictions and at the same time allow free speech. The state shouldn't take the defense of religion and should be secular. Articles 2 and 3 are ways to strengthen the central government while leaving less place for democracy and plurality. This is something we condemn. The current system is good is at it concerning this and we see no need to modify it. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, We agree with article 1. There is a state religion and blasphemy should be a state offence. We cannot agree to the others however as we have always support juror independence and mayoral elections. It is right for a real justice system, and for democracy. |
