| Message | Mr Speaker Today we learnt that the Luthori Conservative Party wants to change the Name of this Parliament to the 'House of Commons' We are against this bill as it is not Conservative in Nature. The Country Party will advocate to leave the name of 'Imperial Diet' in place. The Hon Hermione Edwards MP Leader of HM Loyal Opposition Leader of the Country Party of Luthori |

| Message | Mr Speaker. I would like to draw to the attention of the honourable member that we have updated the bill. It now utilises the name 'House of Representatives'. Does the honourable member find this agreeable? Cody B Mitchell |

| Message | Mr. Speaker I think Mr. Mitchell is confused. This assembly is unicameral: 600 elected members, including from amongst the nobility, and 50 nonvoting advisories from the church and commonwealth countries. There is no need to change the title. This is the Emperor's Diet, and may it be forever! His Excellency Augustus Penrose, Earl of Louth His Majesty's Prime Minister General Secretary of the Luthori Labour Party |

| Message | OOC: Sorry for the confusion. Shall I add 'the' to the name as it currently sounds awkward when you say 'seats in Imperial Diet'? |
