| Message | Hon Toby Andrews MP, Conservative Party Leader, Mr Speaker, we propose that children are permitted to work in Hutori. Under the provisions of the status quo no Hutorian under the age of eighteen may work at all. We propose introducing part time jobs for children over the age of thirteen. This will generate more money for the Hutorian economy with children able to spend money on goods and services. More importantly it will give the younger generations of Hutorians experience of work to prepare them for later life. We believe the provisions outlined above are rigid ones in protecting children from exploitive business owners looking to extort our younger generation for cheap labor. Mr Speaker, i believe this is a good idea and a right policy to help develop our young people into mature working Hutorian adults. |

| Message | Rt Hon Rupert Finchley MP, Minister of Education and Culture Mr Speaker, we commend the Conservative Party on their commitment to a freer economy. Of course, we must protect children from exploitation, but the current system prevents young people from experiencing work. With a proper regulatory system there is a place for children in our economy. |

| Message | I would love to (Really, I would, not a figure of speech) as something like the democratic socialist "Labour Party (UH)", but I've spent three years in Darnussia (since March 2008), and just couldn't bare leaving it, not after this long. But Hutori-type political stability is what I crave for Darnussia (Darnussia is in a right-old mess at the moment). Hutori and Luthori are the two model nations I want to base Darnussia on, albeit as a republic. I was also talking to the Tories (I hope you don't mind me calling you that) about the possibility of a friendship treaty between Darnussia and Hutori (after our recent war, that could come in handy). I would be happy to try and get our foreign minister to try and bind one. |
