We are concerned that the hon. Members can be undermined through such insinuations that hon. Members cannot prepare their speeches and do not belong to their parties. I think the hon. Member who has just spoken should be ruled out of order. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I support this Motion.

We all strive for patriotism and patriotism starts at the family level. The amount of democracy that can be cultivated there will give us the energy to embrace our country in love and friendship. It is very important that we will not hear any more of the instances we have had in the past, of men beating up their wives and wives beating up their men and people beating up their children. Charity begins at home. This Bill is an opportunity for us to promote positive universal living values.
