MessageMr Speaker,

What justification do these new tories have for fiddling with our Imperial Diet?

MessageMr Speaker,

First, we would point out to the Permanently Trashed Yuppies Party representative that our Party is the second-oldest still-functioning Party in existence.

Second, we would point out to the Permanently Trashed Yuppies Party that the current legislature is too small for coherent and accurate representation.

Third, we would point out to the Permanently Trashed Yuppies Party that the number of 500 seats is both closer to the traditional number, and that it is easier to work out the divisions for five Presbyteries than both the present number or any number that is an increase or decrease with the exception of the number being limited to 50, which is constitutionally impossible.

I yield the floor.

MessageMr Speaker,

For a party that claims to be the second oldest, where have they been? They hold no seats in the Diet, they haven't been in evidence as a pressure group for some time, and if in the past there existed a 'Tory' party, surely they cannot claim the same membership. Unless it is a party of the undead, or something equally unlikely!

Merely having 5 presbyteries does not mean we must have a number of seats divisible by 5. The current Diet must stand.

MessageMr Speaker,

As any historian will note, this party was driven out of our glorious homeland on three separate occasions by virulent Protestant propaganda. Indeed, we can claim the same membership. Why, our illustrious leader Sir Winston Churchill resigned only last year, to be replaced with his aide, Angelo Roncalli. If members have died, they have appointed their own successors from the same families and the same ideologies - there is a legitimate succession. Further, if the Trashed Yuppies will recall, following the biological weapons used by our despicable enemies in the earlier crusades, genetic mutation actually increased the average lifespan to around two-hundred-and-fifty years. Medical and historical records, our party's own recorded history and other parties here present can agree, in Poniatowski's name, that we are that same party.

I yield the floor.
