| Message | Mr Speaker First of all, I want to say how pleased I am at this. Finally, we will be free from the super-state that is the AU. We can decide our own future and build a better Aloria, free from bureaucracy. I am also going to say that I am perplexed by some of the ALP's comments about us. They claimed we have talked about leaving, but not acted on that. What are they talking about? We are the party that has started the international campaign to get every country out of the AU. Without us, Endralon would still be in the AU. We would not be signing trade deals with them, and we the Endralonese people would still be trapped inside the sovereign-stealing bloc. We are the ones who have acted. The reason there has not been a bill on our exit of the AU tabled during the last term by us was because Powell promised to the Alorian people there wouldn't be. At the time, the pro-AU parties had a majority. Still, right up until now, we would not be able to secure a 2/3rd majority of the House. The ALP has been pro-AU for a long time, so this comes as a massive surprise; a welcome one I must add. Bert Keller, AIP Leader |

| Message | Mr Speaker, The Labor Party would have supported a bill that came before the parliament withdrawing us from the AU at any time. It has long been the policy of the ALP under both our former Presidents, and now myself as Leader of the Party, as it has been of the AIP. I grant that the AIP has done a lot in this space internationally, yet they have done nothing for the Alorian people in this space. Mr. Speaker, perhaps you did not have the 2/3rds majority, yet this house is called the House of Representatives. You come here to represent those who voted for you, which means you put up bills, even if you know they will fail. It shows you have principle, seems that is something that the AIP lacks in this area. Lars Bartz ALP Leader. |

| Message | Mr Speaker I will reiterate again that Powell promised to not have a vote on the AU so we could work on other issues, instead of creating more division. If we thought the bill could have passed, we would have proposed it. I can't believe the ALP have accused us, the party that was created with the single aim of getting Aloria out of the AU, of not doing anything for Alorians in relation to the AU. Our party has fought campaigns against the AU for three centuries! We are the party that represents the anti-AU sentiment, the ALP does not. In fact, when I raised the issue with former President Wanja Grosskopf after the Democratic Party dragged us back into the super-state, I did not get a reply. They did not vote against us rejoining the AU. The ALP is simply jumping on the bandwagon. Bert Keller, AIP Leader |

| 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. |
