| Message | I suggest all parties support this. If this doesn't get the backing of every other party there will be another term of LNP rule. Although I think it's wrong the SNC is not represented. RISE will be proposing a cabinet that represents all parties in opposition. |
| Date | 21:50:46, February 03, 2016 CET | From | Free Democratic Party | To | Debating the Largest-Minority Cabinet Proposal of November 3977 |
| Message | We'd accept this. |
| Date | 16:03:24, February 04, 2016 CET | From | Solentia National Congress (SNC) | To | Debating the Largest-Minority Cabinet Proposal of November 3977 |
| Message | The sad reality is that a coalition that excludes the SNC will make it basicly imposible to over power the LNP. Do your calculations. |
