| Message | This bill disadvantages newer, less established parties who need to promulgate a clear legislative agenda and keep it before the electorate in order to gain visibility. Vote no. It's a three minute task per day to vote no on a few bills you don't like. |

| Message | I would also urge that there's a less authoritarian solution to this problem. Specifically, I can combine bills into one rather than submitting them separately. I urge a less authoritarian approach to this that permits newer parties to promulgate and maintain the visibility of their legislative platform; specifically, a simple conversation would suffice. "Please put forth fewer bills. Clicking 'no' a few times a day disagrees with me strongly." "Why pardon me, I didn't realize I was aggravating you. I'll combine bills I don't expect to pass, but which are designed to raise and define issue profiles into one omnibus bill. That way, you'll only have to click 'no' on my bills once per day." As usual, instead the so-called "libertarians" took the most authoritarian, command and control approach available. Vote no on this amendment. Sorry to those I aggravated. |

| Message | This just further proves One Nation and the Democratic Rationalists are causiing major concerns to the status quo |

| Message | How? By introducing bills repeatedly defeated because of your slim seat status? Oh, wow, you're really shaking things up, alright. More like cluttering the things the people voted the conservative bloc in to do. Don't be surprised if this shows during the next national election. |

| Message | We're going to vote yes to this as a good will token towards the MLP. |

| Message | Thank you, CP. As we promised the ONP, the voters don't like their repeatative clutter. |
