| Message | We would be happier if strikes were outlawed, but being the laid back, easy going undisciplined party we are, we will support this. |

| Date | 18:19:08, January 16, 2006 CET | From | Conservative Liberal Party | To | Debating the CP Skiving Deterrance Bill |
| Message | There must be some obstuctions on striking. The current situation means that if one union goes on strike for an event that only affects that unions members, every single other unio can go on strike, even though it has nothing to do wtih them. We believe that this gives far to much power to unions, who have an unholy power to bring the country to its knees. |

| Message | The AAS DOES sympathise with the ISM concerns...but we owe it to the workers to ALSO consider their side. If one union is getting screwed, it takes only a little pressure by sister-unions, to help restore balance. If we found this 'balance' being abused by the unions, we would be happy to reconsider weighting legislation more in the favour of the management. |

| Message | We are in agreement with our fellows in the AAS on this issue, but for other reasons. If a strike is unjustified, there will be no shortage of workers to replace those on strike. If is is justified, then whatever pressures can be brought to bear to settle in a fair way are to the good. |

| Date | 00:43:28, January 17, 2006 CET | From | Conservative Liberal Party | To | Debating the CP Skiving Deterrance Bill |
| Message | We do not like the totalitarian version of capitalism that the RLP so admire. We do want to see Likatonian workers lose out to cheap labour because of a corrupt and probably foreign management, however we are not prepared to see Bolsheviks cripple this nation because of Union power. |
| Date | 00:50:36, January 17, 2006 CET | From | Conservative Liberal Party | To | Debating the CP Skiving Deterrance Bill |
| Message | I have altered the bill in an attempt to impose some limitations on the current abuse. |

| Message | While I agree to the proposal, I object to the rice portion. |
