| Message | The RP opposes, this bill mocks are current legislation. It will remove are nations Nobility, who in all earnest are mostly ceremonial and as such will be throwing away a great portion of our nation heritage and history. The RP would also like to point out to the Whigs that this would over rule there Noble Order of Patricians Finally, the RP would also like to point out to the Assembly that this would all mean that the special privileges that are given to the MPAs would be revoked and would be placed at the full mercy of the law. Now for party's such as the RP who have nothing to hid this is fine, how we recognize there is a underbelly of politics that many members of the MPA play in So if you wish to destroy a great part of are heritage that's fine, but we then expect you to throw away your privileges away as well. If you don't wish to, you prove yourselves hypocrites. |

| Message | We interpreted this bill entirely different, nothing in the bill would make anyone invalid to be given membership to another order. This is just a quirky re-write of citizenship. Please correct me if I missed something. |

| Message | What heritage? The government just formed their ridiculous "Order" this year. The heritage we in the CRL wish to celebrate is that of a great democratic republic of free and equal citizens. |
| Date | 02:21:43, March 31, 2017 CET | From | Rutanian National Front | To | Debating the Creation of the Entirely Ordinary Order of Rutanian Citizens |
| Message | The RNF supports the Rutania Party's proposal that any and all privileges not afforded to ordinary citizens be stripped from both the aristocracy and the members of the Assembly. |

| Message | The debate on this bill has taken a nasty turn, we shall stand with the RP and oppose this bill on principle of the direction the CRL attempts to lead things. |

| Message | The heritage the RP refers to is those our for father left us! The RP celebrities all that was passed done to us, this includes those the CLR has mentioned. As for the "Order" the CRL refers to the RP supported said bill only in support to there Coalition members. In addition to this they may also appreciate that the RP is in the proses in trying to repair said bill as to give fairer opportunity for the people of Rutania to have a greater say as to who enters it. |

| Message | We have submitted an Act to move upon the Rutania Party's suggestion of a compromise. We urge members to review it. |

| Message | OOC: For what it's worth, this was intended entirely as a symbolic rebuke of the Patricians bill; it wouldn't have abolished anything. |
