| Message | Should we also vote against having a Prime Minister as well? Because (correct me if I'm wrong) isn't it parliament who votes for the Prime Minister? Is this any different thant voting for a PM...except it's on a local level? |
| Date | 02:22:22, October 30, 2005 CET | From | Maroon Party | To | Debating the Mayor Bill |
| Message | We support this but we feel that each local government should be allowed to determine its own mode of government... so they can have either a strong mayor or a strong city council as they please. |

| Message | Actually on second thought we oppose, because the mayoral councils are elected already, so its really a question about a strong legislature vs a strong executive on the local level, and we favor a strong legislature. |
