| Message | "It's incredible, not to say funny, how UDT keep proposing bills over the matters PPL have just voted. Desperate move, I would say". - Renato Victor, PPL's National Assembly Leader |
| Date | 23:55:00, December 20, 2014 CET | From | União Democrática do Tukarali | To | Debating the Programme for Humane Justice, 3775 |
| Message | "As the opoosition, it is our role to set out a clear alternative to the policies followed by the PPL, and the people of Tukarali have a right to know that we will overturn the unwise policies of the PPL at the earliest opportunity. Just because the PPL has just voted on these matters that doesn't mean we have to accept them, and we would be remiss in our duties if we failed to set out that alternative clearly and for everyone to see before the voters of Tukarali." Matias Duarte, leader of the UDT parliamentary party |

| Message | "First of all, to accomplish your role as the opposition party, all you have to do is to simply vote no for the bills we propose, just like we do with yours. That's why they have that button to start with. It seems to us that you're trying to promote yourself through PPL and although that is valid, it's a shame to see such desperate atitude by the longest-living party in Tukarali." - Renato Victor, PPL's National Assembly Leader |
| Date | 16:28:54, December 22, 2014 CET | From | União Democrática do Tukarali | To | Debating the Programme for Humane Justice, 3775 |
| Message | "It's a shame that the PPL seem to have a problem with the opposition party setting forth alternative policies and restating their position through bills. If we feel that the policies put forward by the PPL are detrimental to the welfare of our country we will put forward bills that endeavour to correct that path, and we will especially do so when we were kept from voting on the PPL's bills. We are promoting our policies against the PPL, promoting ourselves through PPL would only be the case if we kept ourselves to voting on bills that the PPL has introduced." Matias Duarte, leader of the UDT parliamentary party OOC: I couldn't vote on the two bills from January 3775 because once more I couldn't log in. |
