| Message | Yeah. |
| Date | 14:26:43, September 27, 2005 CET | From | Covenanters (IA) | To | Debating the allow everyone to propose cabinets. |
| Message | This will result in endless proposals and will allow small parties with very few seats to remove the largest parties from power. For example, the CPP and DUP are 16 seats short of a majority. Under this system any party with 16 or more seats could propose a cabinet excluding us. That is an outrage and goes directly against the electorate's will. |

| Message | It's the truth. Too many people proposing, too many propositions are flooded onto the floor. |

| Message | "too many propositions are flooded onto the floor." Well then we should set the maximum amount of bills being allowed per party to 1 I mean we're being flooded with them! If we can handle a maximum of 40 proposals per person (that's 320!) then I think we might just be able to handle a maximum of eight cabinet proposals! There would only be 2 proposals, hardly a flood or endless proposals. All I'm saying is give it a chance, it's much more interesting and you(TRP) would be the one benifiting the most from it as everyone would give you the positions you want to get in government! |

| Message | Seosavists is right. The TRP are relatively centrist compared to other parties. Both the left and the right would love to get the swing votes on their side. TRP, if I was you, I'd use this opportunity to get a few of your bills through before you lose your unique position. |
