I am definitely pro-choice. I believe that women have the right to bodily sovereignty and restricting abortion is a violation of the rights of the woman. The pro-lifers speak of the "rights of the child", but a foetus is not a child, or heck, even a human, and saying otherwise is intellectually dishonest and factually incorrect. It's a series of cells with the potential of becoming a child, and deserves none of the protection a child has.

What is your opinion on potential Aurentine space exploration?

What is your opinion on birth control? Should it be legal and, providing it is legal, should the government provide it to people in some fashion?

OOC:Good question, ill bet thats on alot of Senators minds

I personally believe that abortion is a personal question that is so morally relative to each individuals situation that the government should not try to interfere with an individuals choice in the matter. I feel that there should be abortion services provided for free only to those who demonstate financial need.

I stand in strong support of President Bashar Al-Assad. I view the "rebels" as disorganized sects of extremists who happen to be shooting weapons in the same direction, and the weapons they have are provided by foreign governments, who wish nothing but to establish another state with Sharia Law, and will kill anyone who gets in the way of their goal.

The official stance of the party is the stance outlined by our chairman. The decelerations made by individual members of the party are solely the opinions of those members. We are not a fascist party, we are a right wing party that contains a wide range of individual ideologies, including fascism, socialism, and nationalism among other things. Due to the wide range of ideologies represented in the party, any blanket statement made by any individual member apart from the chairmen regarding the party's politics hold no credence with me.

Well, my family has been in the unique position of being of both the Catholic branch of Christianity and Islamic. Now I would say that I am a Muslim but, for the first few years of my life I was a Catholic (before my fathers side had their way). I just put down Catholic for ease and also because my family has experienced prejudice in the past and when I first ran to be a Senator, I was mobbed by anti-Muslim protestors. I equally like both the Catholic faith and Islam but I agree more with Islam.

An yes, modern society. Well I first and for most dislike the way that our glorious nation is now under attack and besieged from its own people (in the form of the Mafia). I also do not like the way that traditional values have been brushed aside, yes some may be unnecessary in the modern world but others are still needed. I fear that in the rush to try and be fully equal and politically correct, we have forgotten what the most important parts of our society are. Then it goes to more trivial things such as the state of young people in Aurentia and the crumbling infrastructure in certain areas, such as my constituency.

Separation from my family was not a factor in that decision. My family was full of moralistic, up-tight, stuffy, legalistic, authoritarian douchebags. I never liked that about my family or family members, and I also couldn't stand the fact that we advocated all this capitalism and freedom while we didn't do a fucking thing to help the poor like we advocated. So I left. I was done with the hypocrisy and bigotry, and started doing whatever the fuck I wanted. My leaving was the beginning of that, and was the best decision of my life.

Interesting, my next question leads on from this. Will you ever reconcile with your family and/or become more, as you would probably put it, 'mainstream' or have you created too much of a divide between you and your family?

I much prefer proportional representation, it gives a far more accurate result in terms of what the public want in their government.
While on the street the only crime I commited was stealing scraps of food from people why they weren't looking, nothing of note really.
