| Message | The Conservatives would be happy to consider making slight modifications to names of cities in Vanuku - however we would not wish to make radical wholesale changes to the names of every single city as it brings with it the potential to harm our economy in the process. We open the floor to the PBV to provide a list of names they would be happy to apply. |

| Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
