| Message | This is the more aggressive proposal. The one still in debate is more balanced. Please, feel free to comment on both of them if you like. One thing we would like to note, however, is that neither proposal is "ideal", but what we see as being "ideal" would also be unlikely to gain enough votes to pass. |

| Message | This choice of cabinet is wrong and shows the Rakko Party go with the first proposal. |
| Date | not recorded | From | People's Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of January 2041 |
| Message | I think this is a far more realistic proposal than the one before...let me consider it and i'll get back to you |

| Message | I would like to point out that our party is generally quite centrist. Unfortunately, the numerous conservative parties won majorities in the last election, and this prevents us from assigning seats impartially. I would like to point out that the Rakko Party more often votes in favor of the SDP and the Labour Party than in favor of the People's Party. |

| Message | Then again, a conservative view is helpful in the economy. That's a position I wouldn't trust a leftist party in, only a rightist or centrist one. |

| Message | yes and no |

| Message | Whilst we recognise the Rakko Party is seeking to build a democratic coalition, we also see it as our democratic duty to register a "no" due to the right bias of this cgovernment. We will however take each Bill proposed on its merits and not simply oppose the government for the sake of it. |

| Message | Let this die. I'm killing it. That will place the majority against, and the other proposal can be brought forward. This one seems to be facing very near complete opposition. |

| Message | No, actually, in 8 hours it'll expire anyways. It'll die then. In the meantime, I'll go try and figure how to rebalance the cabinet again. |

| Message | Actually I am willing to support this... |
