Message | Madame speaker, Wild animals are not domesticated - they belong in the wild. Forcing them to be indoors means denying them their natural habitat and goes contrary to our idea of animal welfare. If you rescue a wild animal, you should allow it to return to it's natural habitat when it is able too. Svenja Hall, Werin Da spokeswoman on issues of enviorment and animal welfare |

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. |
