| Message | "The coalition IS the Government Ms. Power. Surely a supposed lawyer would know that? The coalition partners have full confidence in each other and our specialisms." Matti Lehtimäki, Secretary of State for Internal Affairs CUP Senatorial Lead. |

| Message | Of course you have. I'm sure that is why the left radicals have voted down several of your proposals and not abstained on others, including your communist education proposals, and the worst budget proposal in years. Coleen Power |

| Message | "As I recall, following discussion and dialogue, our esteemed colleagues backed our education proposals that saw schools put the child first. The LRP and the CUP recognise our differences as strengths and respect each other's commitment to the national interest above petty party politics. A lesson some could learn from if they see beyond the edge of their High School Level economics textbook. Theorists through and through, thats what the alternative is to the logical, pragmatic and common-sense approach of a popular, successful coalition." Matti Lehtimäki, Secretary of State for Internal Affairs CUP Senatorial Lead. |

| Message | Successful government? Two new laws in 3 years and nothing else? The Minister is talking rubbish. The rest has been roundly defeated. The government gave up trying and became resigned to defeat. Hopefully whichever parties form the next government, let it be more successful than this sham. Coleen Power, Shadow JUstice Minister. |
