| Date | 19:27:52, October 08, 2017 CET | From | Socialist Alliance for Workers Unity | To | Debating the Religious reform |
| Message | The CL-DA could never support such a massive infringement of free thought and other basic rights. We may agree on the need for ensuring that religious institutions are treated equally under the law, but a complete purging of any religious thought or action within public society is a massive overstep of government power within the private lives of all cildanian citizens |

| Random fact: In order for a Cabinet bill to pass, more than half of the legislature must vote for it and all of the parties included in the proposed Cabinet must support it. If your nation has a Head of State who is also the Head of Government, then the party controlling this character must also vote for the bill, since the Head of Government is also a member of the Cabinet. If any of these requirements are not met, the bill will not pass. |
