| Message | I would be interested to know the Bailon Independence-Liberation Movement's reasons for opposing this bill? |
| Date | 16:35:36, January 18, 2010 CET | From |  Beluzian National Party | To | Debating the Local Power Restore Bill |
| Message | Although I understand why you'd think an Independence party would support more power to local governments, we do not, as we want total independence for Bailon, not more power to the regions of Beluzia and Bailon. |

| Message | Surely your party supports the self determination of all regions, not just Bailon? It would be very hypocritical to support independence for Bailon, and not other regions in Beluzia. The route to independence is undoubtedly devolution of powers to local authorities. OOC: Not even sure if the game would allow independence of a region? Worth asking the Mods though. |

| Message | OOC: It probably doesn't but who cares ? xD Its the same in the UK with the SNP and Plaid Cymru, they win but dont get independence. We aren't interested in Beluzia's affairs. |

| Message | OOC: IRL where are you from? I suspected Scotland. I may be wrong. And the SNP may get their referendum sooner than we all think. I hope the Scots decide that Alexander Salmond is an idiot, and that we are better off as one nation. That is my opinion though. Perhaps not directly, but should you ever govern in Bailon, they will look to you to support other independence movements on the same principles. |

| Message | OOC: England. Should our party's popularity expand further than Bailon, we will be more than happy to work with other independence movements, or movements by ethnic Bailons to join Bailon, should Bailon get the independence it much deserves. |
