| Message | Mr. Speaker, I am astounded that the Urban Party could support such a motion. Shame on them. I hate to seem sensationalist, but this is an absolute outrage. Not content with simply blocking the Rutanian people's mandate from being given to the party they could trust at the last election the most, the coalition of the old now wishes to take away any dignity this house of representation had left. Shame on any party who supports this Bill. Rachel Colvin, DSF Parliamentary Leader. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, Acts like this are outrageous! We shall call this day 'the day of ruin'. The RP, REP, CLP and URP are willing to see familes and working people without homes or secure wages. Why is the GCP not shocked? We saw this act coming long before it was proposed. Rise up the followers of the GCP and oppose all capitalist policies. This will only make the electorate confine in the left-wing even more. SHAME ON YOU! |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, The DSF and GCP are so blind on their illusions on the basis of political spectrum that they can't comprehend how the economy works in Rutania. Liberalizing the market to grant more freedom to investors and businesses have been very successful to bring Rutania to this stage in economic development. Restraining the market has simply never worked. James Hatch, Republican Leader. |
