| Message | Article 1: We vehemently reject this. Citizenship is for everybody, and should not be restricted to landowners. It is outrageous that this can even be considered! Article 2: We are indifferent to this, but would support it if the other parties are agreed to it. Article 3: We are 100% opposed to introducing any kind of monarchy. Article 4: We reject this for the same reasons we reject Article 3. Article 5: We are indifferent to this, but would support it if the other parties are agreed to it. Article 6: We would support reducing the number of seats; our parties have the imagination and energy to run this country with fewer politicians. |

| Message | How could article 1 be serious? Citizenship should be for all who have the aldegar nationality! The head of the state should be the prime minister, why choose another title? We are a republic, not a kingdom, so article 3+4 we also reject. article 5 we also reject, for the simple reason it would be spending time and money to a simple namechange wich is not necessary for our republic. The current number of seats seems to be randomly chosen, an inequal number would be wise so there will always be a majority, but with to little seats there is no voice to the small party's. Therefore, a number of 201, for example, would be wiser. |

| Message | We would suggest to the Monarchists that they perhaps split this bill up? Split it into its seperate parts and we will agree to number 5, as it stands, we must disagree respectfully on all other points, leading us to a no vote. |
| Date | 03:07:22, July 24, 2005 CET | From | Alliance of Free Persons | To | Debating the Administration Reforms |
| Message | The Alliance of Free Persons is in different to all the articles of this bill except the first and the last. The limitation of citizenship to the landed is patently unacceptable, and we believe that a large legislature works to maximize citizen involvement in governance. We therefore vote no. |
