| Message | Mr Speaker, It is simply absurd to see a party with Eco in their name vote for a bill that will modify the nature as it is. Chemical agents and GM will only contaminate our farmland. Yes, short-term production will increase, but the generations beyond ourselves will pay the price. This is a risk that we must not take. Gregory Madison MP Bozarland |

| Random fact: Players who consent to a particular role-play by acknowledging it in their own role-play cannot then disown it or withdraw their consent from it. For example, if player A role-plays the assassination of player B's character, and player B then acknowledges the assassination in a news post, but then backtracks and insists the assassination did not happen, then he will be required under the rules to accept the validity of the assassination role-play. |
