| Message | Mr. Speaker, I would like to alert my friends in the LWP that the criminalization of sex work is an anti-feminist action. It should be a Women's choice to who to sleep with and why they wish to sleep with them, even if they choose to become entrepreneurs, in short women do not need the state to tell women what to do. Furthermore, if a women is sex traffic or abused why they work, god forbid, criminalization dissuades her from going to the police to report that abuse or to gain freedom, because if you tell a police officer you are a prostitute and its illegal you will be sent to jail. Legalization and protection is the only feminist policy when it comes to sex work. Janet Oplers Feminist Diet Leader. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, The 'honourable lady' should be aware that it is not a crime to be a victim of human trafficking. They speak of choice from their ivory towers where they have never understood anything, least of all the plight of working-class women: prostitution is exploitation, not entrepreneurship.

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We at the Feminist Party find it funny that the honourable gentleman thinks that he knows what is best for women, the women of the nation knows that he is not interested in the liberation of women, but instead in control of women. That is why the LWP wants to ban women from consenting to sex if they profit off it, that's why they pass bills that stop women from working, that's why they have promoting social reactionary positions seance their establishment. Janet Oplers Feminist Diet Leader. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, The honourable lady and her friends confuse liberation with exploitation and control with freedom. Ernie Attridge MID for Southfork Deputy Prime Minister and Home Secretary |
