| Message | Mr Speaker, These things should not be criminalised. It does not matter if people have sexual relations other than for procreation. So what? It is not the government's job to stop them. And why should women be forced to stay at home? That is ridiculous, outdated and sexist. We need to change these laws, and we need to change them now. - Kurt von Feren, Minister for Justice |
