| Message | Gen Karl Richards MP, HNP Leader, Mr Speaker, this bill shall see any 'hutor' given preferential treatment whenever applying for a job. Any job that has numerous applicants shall be offered to native Hutors firstly before anyone else. Mr Speaker, this shall show that the Hutori National Party is the only party that truly wants to represent the people of this nation of Hutori! The HNP will come to power in November 2976 and this Bill shows we are representing the interests of well over 50% of the Hutorian population and if it is at the expense of some then so be it. Mr Speaker, the CLP will unquestionably call this Act racist or something along those lines and we say to them that we dont care. We are standing now as the party of the 'Hutors' and a party that will not be held back by political correctness or anything else for that matter. Mr Speaker, the CLP should know that whenever the HNP come to power many more Bills along these lines will be introduced to benefit the nation and our native people! |

| Message | Mr Speaker, The Labour Movement and Unions would like to state how disguised we are of the HNP and their allies in the Popular alliance. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, im still unsure how this unelected group are still able to comment in this Hutoris ELECTED House! We welcome back our allies in the Popular Alliance who are opposed to CLP/UM rule and we shall do everything in our power to rise to high office once again. Mr Speaker, this Labour Movement is nothing more than a group of deluded individuals who still think they hold some influence whenever they are powerless to stop the HNP and PA. We urge this is their last comment to the House from Lourenne because they hold no juristiction in Hutori any more. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, we know the now disbanded Labour Party still read these Parliamentary debates and it reminds me of comments by the Labour Party who are now acting as a pressure group. A quote from an old proposal from around December 2946 (http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=292579). This reads, An NSC statement read, "Madam Speaker, the NSC are going to dominate Hutorian politics for decades. Labour can either accept it, or we recommend they move country perhaps?" Labour respond with, "Madam Speaker, We Laugh at the Gentleman." Well, look how the political scene in Hutori has turned out. Labour have taken HNP advice and moved to a different nation and we are on the verge of re-taking power in Hutori. Perhaps the CLP should take HNP advice as well. When we say Hutori will become a HNP totalitarian state....we most certainly mean it. |

| Message | The Labour movement still do laugh at the gentleman. He has a simple mind obviously if he believes that the Labour movement is transcendental. How can it exist in Hutori and abroad at the same time? We feel that maybe the gentleman mistakes our allies abroad for ourselves, which is a little bit silly, now. We can assure the not-so-gentle-man that we are firmly rooted in this nation, and we will not move. Except one of our members who is currently on an official visit to Beiteynu and Luthori respectively, letting them know of the threat your party poses to civil rights in this nation. Of course, Lourenne is looking to expand its influence as well. I would make sure the gentleman knows that the Labour Movement has a hell of a lot of influence at home and abroad. |

| Message | Yes, your no MP's gives you lots of influence in Hutori. |
| Date | 12:21:04, July 26, 2010 CET | From | Conservative-Libertarian Party (UM) | To | Debating the Hutorian Peoples Hiring Act of 2974 |
| Message | Mr Speaker, this shows the narrow minded thinking of the HNP. They think that influence only exists inside this chamber. Of course, this chamber is sovereign and therefore has a great deal of influence. However, what led to a revived CLP, Mr Speaker? It was withdrawal from this chamber - going around the country, meeting people, building bases in local areas and communities. Had we not done that, we would not have been the resurgent force that we now are. Mr Speaker, this approach is embedded in the HNP - they simply think in a central, collectivist way, ignoring individuals, localities, communities and minorities. Mr Speaker, it is for this reason that they will never be respected by the people of Hutori. |
| Date | 12:40:52, July 26, 2010 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Hutorian Peoples Hiring Act of 2974 |
| Message | Mr Speaker, the House of Parliament is the Supreme law-making body in Hutori. It is the most influential organisation in this nation. We know about representing the people and HNP MP's know their duties. Given the lack of political parties now, MP's have more time to spend in their constituencies than the House of Parliament. The CLP would do well to remember that they are not the only ones who have gone through a political revival. We have bounced back from our self-exile in Davostan and our revival isnt even finished yet. |
| Date | 12:51:31, July 26, 2010 CET | From | Conservative-Libertarian Party (UM) | To | Debating the Hutorian Peoples Hiring Act of 2974 |
| Message | Mr Speaker, we agree with everything the gentleman has just said, but that doesn't mean that individuals or organisations cannot be influential without being present in this chamber. Mr Speaker, look at the various charities that operate in Hutori - is the gentleman saying they are not influential? |
| Date | 12:54:16, July 26, 2010 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Hutorian Peoples Hiring Act of 2974 |
| Message | Mr Speaker, those charities are influential...but not in a political way. This Labour movement has just abandoned its followers and still thinks it represents people. Its a complete nonsense. |
| Date | 13:50:00, July 26, 2010 CET | From | Conservative-Libertarian Party (UM) | To | Debating the Hutorian Peoples Hiring Act of 2974 |
| Message | Mr Speaker, given that most trade unions are still affiliated to the Labour Party, it could be argued that the movement has a great degree of influence. |

| Random fact: Particracy allows you to establish an unelected head of state like a monarch or a president-for-life, but doing this is a bit of a process. First elect a candidate with the name "." to the Head of State position. Then change your law on the "Structure of the executive branch" to "The head of state is hereditary and symbolic; the head of government chairs the cabinet" and change the "formal title of the head of state" to how you want the new head of state's title and name to appear (eg. King Percy XVI). |
