| Message | Its an either-or proposal, so we'll just send it to vote. |
| Date | 03:07:41, April 30, 2005 CET | From | Democratic Socialists | To | Debating the Government Employee Act |
| Message | We believe that government appointees should, by definition, be political. The best candidate that the administration supports should be put forward- but government employees should believe in the policies they are implementing. We fear that the implementation of this will lead to a civil service which believes it has the role of minimising the effects of government policy. We cannot support this bill. |

| Message | But what about a candidate who is blinded by his own party's doctrine that he (or she) cannot see the damage they are doing? Surely an unbias opinion is more valuable than a fanatical one. |

| Message | Besides what if someone better suited for the job is passed over because of politics? We all suffer because of it. |
