| Message | This is ridiculous. Excessive abuse or unsafe working conditions need 100 signatures before action will be taken? What of workplaces which have less then 100 employees? We are no fans of strike action but we refuse to remove this right from workers. This bill is absurd. |

| Message | 'External reasons'? You call conditions INSIDE factories 'external'? You call excessive abuse by employers IN the workplace 'external'? We are starting to question the work of the party registration office. |

| Random fact: Players who consent to a particular role-play by acknowledging it in their own role-play cannot then disown it or withdraw their consent from it. For example, if player A role-plays the assassination of player B's character, and player B then acknowledges the assassination in a news post, but then backtracks and insists the assassination did not happen, then he will be required under the rules to accept the validity of the assassination role-play. |
