Message | 60 is definitely too long. 48 would be a reasonable compromise perhaps...although if it changes we would ideally like to see early elections called for those of us with zero seats at the moment. |

Message | Well, we will diffinintly call for early elections if the number of seats change. |
Date | 00:00:48, November 27, 2005 CET | From | Populist Liberal Party | To | Debating the Election Act |
Message | We will support (for what it's worth) 48 month terms if early elections are called if and when the amendment is passed. |

Message | 48 is too long, this will cause stagnation in our country. |

Message | 48 is just right. If you imagine a real country...can you imagine seeing policies going back and forth as quickly as they do under the current system? |

Message | Plus, we have expericanced huge policy shifts with the current system. I would love to see it longer, but this works fine. |
