| Message | We are quite happy to take a lesser position in a greater Cabinet of the three major parties. If we can reach consensus on this, the other parties don't need to be in the cabinet. If GSP doesn't agree to this, we can always amend it to include a smaller party, for a majority coalition. |
| Date | 23:28:01, January 11, 2006 CET | From | The Green Hornet Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of September 2169 |
| Message | We do not support. We feel we should have atleast one seat in the cabinet. We tried to let you fellow parties have seats last time but no one could agree. And now we are not even given one seat this is not right. So we do not support at all!! |

| Message | I am now going to vote down my own bill, in the interests of my country and the People. I had hoped that the voice of reason would prevail, but alas, there is no rhyme or reason to GSP's stance on this matter. |
| Date | 11:46:55, January 12, 2006 CET | From | Now And Zen Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of September 2169 |
| Message | I will not propose the same cabinet mix with the same parties again, now, or in the future. We will have private discussions with the Prime Minister, regarding other future cabinets. Caleb, if you are able, please withdraw your vote from this bill, also. We have always expressed our interest in Finance, right from the start, being transparent and honest in this regard. This is merely because we have experts in this field, who have successfully managed businesses and other enterprises of larger magnitude. We see where we can be a positive force for change to our country's shattered fiscal policy. |
