| Message | Madam Speaker, I believe that what the Liberal Democrats are proposing is extremely hasty and only an attempt to re-gain power in the National Senate. Like I said before, political opportunism at its finest. Oswald Kennedy (R–AD) National Senate Leader of the Republicans |
| Date | 04:29:55, August 05, 2016 CET | From | Moderate Capitalist Party | To | Debating the LDP-47: Hung Senate Act |
| Message | Madam Speaker-- You heard it here first. November will come and go, and there will still be no early election. And the voters will be exposed to the real LDP: all talk but no bite. Dean Powell Leader, MCP |

| Random fact: Cabinet ministers who disagree seriously with the head of government would usually be expected to resign. Parties within the cabinet may attempt to manoeuvre to replace the head of government though, for example by proposing a new cabinet bill or voting for an early election. |
