| Message | Mr. Speaker This goes against the Democratic process open to all Union members and allows Union Bosses to hold the economy hostage at a whim. There needs to be accountability to the members when Unions go on strike especially if some members don't feel they should. Senator Mark Everton (R-KE) Royalist Trade and Industry Critic |

| Message | Mr Speaker, We support the belief of unionism and support of workers all over Hutori. However - we do not see it right to force those not wanting to stike into it. Let's stand up for workers and democracy. We want change, we represent the common man. We represent sense, We represent democracy, respect and freedom. Carlos Everton GUP Leader |
