| Message | The CRP have decided to vote no on this issue. We believe that there must be a federalist option for voters and that for local governments to be effective we must show some faith in them to make the right decisions. Different wild animals may cause different problems in different regions, so a central list may not be as effective. We understand that there are many arguments against our position and do not expect to win on this issue, but different regions tend to have different viewpoints so we believe that regional government is more likely to lead to what the people really want. |

| Message | We believe this position of the CRP to rely on federal power to be sheer electoral posturing, and encourage them to vote according to their beliefs, not according to seats. |
| Date | 12:27:32, March 09, 2008 CET | From | People's Radical Party | To | Debating the Pets and Safety (Wild Animals) Act |
| Message | We respect that viewpoint, however the GPRP's argument is that a "dangerous wild animal" is most likely to be dangerous whether in Kuratha or Budenlar, rather than having its level of danger increase or decrease as it moves around the country. |

| Random quote: The Wolfsheim Virus is not a real actual disease in the conventional medical sense of the term. Rather, it is a cluster of symptoms which are just part of the general socio-economic disease that is capitalism. The main symptoms the sufferers are experiencing are a direct result of capitalist poverty, as in malnutrition, poor housing and so on, combined with psycho-somatic symptoms which are a direct consequence of the contradictions and stresses which are inherent to the capitalist system. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer, General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
