From | United Liberal Alliance | To | Debating the Government of Telamon (Titles) Act | | Message | With regards to the title of the Head of State, we prefer Prime Minister, but this is simply a personal preference and if everyone else prefers President then we are happy to go with that. |
| Date | not recorded |
From | | To | Debating the Government of Telamon (Titles) Act | | Message | I support this, provided the prime minister is not also the head of government. What distribution of power there is must be preserved.
(OOC that was roleplaying, the effective part is "I support you") |

From | United Liberal Alliance | To | Debating the Government of Telamon (Titles) Act | | Message | Yes, but what is a 'Count' the English understanding of 'Count' is a title given to a noble, not a region and therefore it doesn't make any sense. If you meant 'county' then you got it wrong, but the problem with that is that the system doesn't do plurals properly, so 'county' becomes 'countys' instead of 'counties.' Therefore 'province' is better because it works! |

From | United Liberal Alliance | To | Debating the Government of Telamon (Titles) Act | | Message | States is another possibility to Provinces, the reason we chose provinces, is that if you look at the constitution we are designated as a unitary state with central government authority rather than a federal system. Therefore provinces seems more appropriate (we also like provinces better than states!!) Having said this, a definition of a Commonwealth is an association of states, so either is acceptable to us, whatever the majority prefers. With regards to House of Representatives we prefer Parliament (with absolute utmost respect to yourself and all Australians, House of Representatives is too American for are liking!!) |

From | United Liberal Alliance | To | Debating the Government of Telamon (Titles) Act | | Message | But if everyone would rather have House of Representatives or something, then we will consider it but as I said we prefer Parliament (though we would consider more favourably than House of Representatives, National Assembly, if people prefer this?) |

From | | To | Debating the Government of Telamon (Titles) Act | | Message | Both of them mean 'house'. You would have to write representatives in russian or italian as well. |

From | United Liberal Alliance | To | Debating the Government of Telamon (Titles) Act | | Message | In answer to your question about the motto, apologies - it should not have been removed and I have now reintroduced it. I like the motto and therefore feel that the Party of National Progress should accept it |

From | United Liberal Alliance | To | Debating the Government of Telamon (Titles) Act | | Message | Is the act now ok with people, I think that there is a 2/3rds majority for the proposal but just to check again, if it were to proceed to vote now, who would vote yes and who no - please just give a yes or no answer!! |
