| Message | But how can 100 representatives represent 625.000.000 people. |
| Date | 13:35:58, May 17, 2010 CET | From | Conservative Party of Solentia | To | Debating the Senate seats |
| Message | 100 Senators have done so perfectly well for quite some time, it merely means that each Senator becomes more important. |
| Date | 21:00:45, May 17, 2010 CET | From | Utilitarian Party of Solentia | To | Debating the Senate seats |
| Message | The analysis taken by the Action of Civic Democrats is impressive, yet we cannot support a growing government. With the current number of seats in the Senate, every party has had the chance to express its opinion. |
