| Message | Mr. Speaker, Legion is once again attempting to destroy the social fabric of the nation with authoritarian policies and no effort towards debate or compromise. We will not even grace this legislation with a vote, and instead DFP members will walk out of the chamber for the remainder of the session. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker the FDP walks out because they simply do not want to work. Their job is to vote, they just do not want to vote on matters that matter, what a sad thing to see. The FDP wants Mordusia to be some kind of a heretics haven with polygamous marriages happening! What a crazy bunch of people! |
