| Message | This bill is unecessary. We have expressd a willingness to include most Lodamese parties across the entire political spectrum in a URP-led government. At this time are unable to work with the NP and ULP. FL would be allowed to assume only a minor role. The URP is convinced this bill will cause political chaos. We continue to urge reform in this area of cabinet creation through the election of a HoS with the power to propose governments. I ask all parties to vote against this bill and to message me if they wish to be included in a URP government. No one has yet responded. |

| Message | So Democracy will be limited to what you want, you a person how finds it hard to co-operate with parties when you cant get your own way. You who reports people to the mods which can only be seen as trying to get rid of opposition. |

| Message | Actually I just wanted him to be warned really. His comments were incredibly nasty and should have been dealt with. I find other parties have problems cooperating with the URP. I have expressed a willingness to work with all parties except NP really. I'd never accept a cabinet withthem even playing a minor role. I remind other nations that it was the NP who passed the law allowing the largest party to propose cabinets, that was back when he was the largest party of course! So I would say you are the one who limited democracy when it suited you now you are manipulating democracy to suit your new role as minority party. |

| Message | To be honest, I really have no idea how I feel about this. I have such a 2 party system concept of cabinets that this is bothersome to me, yet when the majority party isn't even close to the majority... |
