| Message | PR and ONP if you continue to oppose these proportional, fair cabinet proposals you WILL NOT be included in future ones. You are holding-up the progress of the nation in the name of foolish pride and stubborness. |
| Date | 00:45:41, July 14, 2007 CET | From | Party Royale | To | Debating the Proportional Cabinet Proposal Attempt of October 2427 |
| Message | We receive only one seat in this cabinet, and an unimportant one at that, while the MLP receives 4. Party Royale did not receive one fourth of the votes of the MLP in the last election, and this cabinet does not accurately represent the votes of the people. |
