| Message | Do any support a 299 seat parliament? Right now a simple majority(with 300) is 151, a super majority is 201. 299 would change both of these to 150 and 200. |

| Message | we still believe this is a false economy. There are only minor savings in a 50% cut, which will be msotly eatned up by the cost of making the change. |
| Date | 22:38:40, August 17, 2005 CET | From | Tuesday Is Coming | To | Debating the 300 is Enough |
| Message | The costs of making the change are the same as the costs for the next election. The savings are continuous, for perpetuity.q |
