| Message | "Mr. Speaker" "Where is the LPU? Where is the mutual respect and solidarity from the CR? It's obvious that they are just trying to undermine a fairly moderate LPU that has bridged the gap between Royalism and Socialism. We've united the entire nation under our leadership with the overwhelming number of parties being IA members and approval of the Monarchy is much higher then usual. Maybe the CR could speak to us about a fair cabinet situation? The only reason we barred you from our own proposal was for fear of this exact corse of action. Prove yourself to have changed!" James Huston LPU Leader |

| Message | Mr Speaker, Jane...Dear Jane. You laid forward your proposal first without us being included. Not a single cabinet postion. And yet you go against us for not including you in this one? It's simply silly. You were the one who decided to go against us and so we simply responded with a fair cabinet that has a clear majority. Are you really that power hungry? Wilma Urquhart |

| Message | "Mr. Speaker" "I'm not Jane, that is very disrespectful of you Willma, if you are to call me by my name I can forgive, but we'd be glad if we just both put down our political guns and discuss an actual cabinet. If you are to accept a cabinet between the CR, LPU, ICU, and NPL we could all just end this childishness. But I can't force you to do anything, although I do still condemn you childish acts of calling me 'jane'" James Huston LPU Leader |

| Message | Mr Speaker, I am simply adressing you the way you where named. And once more there are more that we do not agree on. You where the one who excluded me from the cabinet. And so we made our own cabinet. A cabinet to restore the empire and to bring forth a policy these four parties agree on. Do not sit up there on your high horse and pretend you didn't do the same thing. This is a stable and honest cabinet. Wilma Urquhart |
| Date | 03:22:03, June 26, 2016 CET | From | Freeborn Luthorians/Freeborn Coalition | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of August 4049 |
| Message | "Mr. Speaker" "I didn't even propose, I just expected you to deny siting in a cabinet with us. And may I ask out debate is just a debate, up to the IA to decide our path of action. I am also getting tired of 'Jane' it's says James now in my birth certificate, so it's my legal name and also on my birth certificate, so please do call me by my name. And as well I would be fine with discussing a cabinet with you, go ahead and make requests on what positions you want. And I'll get to work setting the cabinet up." James Huston LPU Leader |
| Date | 03:27:45, June 26, 2016 CET | From | Luthori Progressive Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of August 4049 |
| Message | Mr Speaker, We in the Luthori Progressive Party would like to thank the voters of Luthori for the opportunity to speak from the floor of the Imperial Diet for the first time. As a new party, our performance in the last election far exceeded our expectations, and for that, we are ever so grateful. We are determined to form a Centrist/Centre-Left government in Luthori in order to improve the lives of Luthorians. And we must ask the LPU why they seem to be willing to go into government with the CR, ICU, and NPL over a progressive LPU-LPP-Liberal-IDP government. We also ask the IDP to clarify it's position on whether they support a conservative government on a progressive one, since they voted for both. We ask the IDP to keep in mind that they have three cabinet portfolios in our proposal and only two in the CR's proposal. Thank you, Mr. Speaker |
| Date | 09:01:30, June 26, 2016 CET | From | Imperial Democratic Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of August 4049 |
| Message | Mr Speaker, The IDP party is willing to work with both the right and left so we are willing to vote for both. Im the end we never expect to be the biggest or best but are just here to work for our constituents who want the goverenmemt to function to the best of its ability. I yield |
| Date | 14:40:41, June 26, 2016 CET | From | Conservative Right | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of August 4049 |
| Message | Mr Speaker, I don't see the issue here. If this passes we have a goverment that has a clear majority. We are flattered that the LPU so badly wants to sit in cabinet with us but the centre right have a clear majority. We were not in your cabinet proposal you even put yourself as the head of goverment. That shows how you didn't wish for us in a cabinet at all. Jane. Wilma Urquhart |
| Date | 17:13:21, June 26, 2016 CET | From | Luthori Progressive Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of August 4049 |
| Message | OOC: The centrist/centre-left proposal has already passed, so by voting yes to this proposal, the IDP is effectively voting to replace the current cabinet and for one less portfolio for itself. |
| Date | 10:08:59, June 27, 2016 CET | From | Liberal Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of August 4049 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, Traitors are filthy creatures. But turncoats are filthier. Oh, wait. I think they're just the same! Kim Hayes, MP Liberals |
| Date | 11:21:14, June 27, 2016 CET | From | Freeborn Luthorians/Freeborn Coalition | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of August 4049 |
| Message | "Mr. Speaker" "HOW DARE THE IDP! You dare insult the LPU, Progressives, and Liberals that much?!?! They have nothing in common with you, they want to see normal people die, they want to see it so gays can't marry and you can't dress as you want. Morality is what Luthorians care about and the IDP have stabbed the Progressives of Luthori in the back with this move, may I add they betrayed themselves with this too" James Huston LPU Leader |
| Date | 12:39:59, June 27, 2016 CET | From | Conservative Right | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of August 4049 |
| Message | Mr Speaker I would ask ms Jane Houston to take a deep breath and calm down for a second there. Firstly. If luthori cared so much for that then we would not have won the election. Secondly. The IDP sat with us last term and we got along splendid so I don't see a reason for this harsh words against them. May I also say that they should goverment has put more people to work by taking away disadvantages in the regulation and giving more money to the working man. Wilma Urquhart Prime minister |

| Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
