| Message | I believe our hardworking citizens deserve to be able to begin retirement at an earlier age. I'm interested in what the other parties think of this issue and please tell me what age you think it should be moved to. |

| Message | We think thirty-five yrs is a good number to spend in the labour force, thus we would support anything that lowers it toward 55. |

| Message | I perfectly agree with you and thus have changed my proposal to 57 for now. I believe we should wait to change it to maybe say 55 later on as this would have a slight effect on the economy and such. |

| Message | Excuse me made a typo. Leaving this bill at 58 and in the future we can vote to lower it again. |

| Message | 58 is not unreasonable.. in fact one of the first bills I proposed raised it from 55 to 58. I don't remember if it passed or not. :/ |
| Date | 20:41:22, December 06, 2005 CET | From | Progressive Labour Party | To | Debating the Retirement Age Reform |
| Message | We only just raised it to 60, so we will not agree to this. |
