| Message | Interesting, I thought BLP were against deals with capitalists and had a tiff with Dada? Also you might want to check your sums: this cabinet would only have 49 seats, you need 50. |

| Message | I know its just a proposal. I like Dada's new form its funny. KP is ok on some levels. Having said that there is a considerable opposion faction within the BLP on this issue. |

| Message | If you look at the party comparisons, you'd probably see that the BLP is far from being extreme in the current landscape of parties we have here. Besides economic matters, which are of course serious, the BLP view is often closer to the coalition than IPE and NU. And the voters have once again made their mind up about that. |

| Message | Well in the regions I did well it was the combination of my economic policies and my secularism that swung those regions, plus my anti-war stance in Hugalon. |

| Message | It's just a proposal, like BLP said. I'm sure BLP got a fair share of Co-Liber's former voters though! |

Where appropriate, they should also provide guidance to players on where to find help with translations and character names.
