| Message | Mr. Chairman, I hope the DSU will provide an explanation for their decision, since I feel the Dorvish people are entitled to that. As much as we are excited and confident about the prospect of presenting our party's case to the electorate, we do recognise right now could be an awkward time to hold an early election, given the operations going on in Hulstria and the South. We would be prepared to support a TGP minority government until the next election is due, in exchange for the following assurances: 1. The military operation in the South should be scaled back and brought to an end very swiftly. A deadline should be set for an end to all major military operations there. 2. Dorvik's overseas aid spending should be increased from 11,000,000,000 DDO to at least 15,000,000,000 DDO. It is very important to us that Dorvik should spend at least 1% of its GDP on aid, the target set by the Terran Poverty Relief Association (TPRA). Anton Weinreich General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |

| Message | Mr.Speaker, The Support that the DSU and the Communists seem to be providing to the TGP proves that we here at the Green Liberal Party are the only ones who stand for Social Democracy and Democratic Socialism. Filomina Schwarz, Leader of the GLP |
| Date | 18:02:11, December 03, 2017 CET | From | Dorvische Sozialistische Union 🌹 | To | Debating the Call for early elections, March 4312 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, I hope the GLP understands that Democratic Socialism is about working together in the name of a better Dorvik. Patrizia Erlach DSU State Council Leader |
| Date | 18:06:27, December 03, 2017 CET | From | Grüne Demokratische Partei | To | Debating the Call for early elections, March 4312 |
| Message | The DSU wanted to call an early election and immediately retreated! This government clearly is unstable, and the people must be allowed to make a new choice on its ability to govern. Bianca Heilprin Leader of ED |
| Date | 18:08:44, December 03, 2017 CET | From | Dorvische Sozialistische Union 🌹 | To | Debating the Call for early elections, March 4312 |
| Message | We didn't immediately retreat, we negotiated with the TGP in order to maintain stability. |
| Date | 18:27:39, December 03, 2017 CET | From | Dorvische Kommunistische Partei | To | Debating the Call for early elections, March 4312 |
| Message | Mr. Chairman, The DSU withdrew from the government and proposed an early election motion. Now they are voting against the early election motion they proposed. Surely the Dorvish people deserve an explanation for this. What is going on? Why the DSU leave the coalition, and what deal have they now done in order to patch it up? The public have a right to know. Anton Weinreich General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
| Date | 18:27:42, December 03, 2017 CET | From | Sozialdemokratische Union Dorviks (SUD) | To | Debating the Call for early elections, March 4312 |
| Message | I have not seen such opportunism in a long time. I will keep this in mind when the DSU will once again beg me for my endorsement and tell me how they think the TGP is bad and whatnot. Theresa Saudek Leader of the BP |
| Date | 18:29:47, December 03, 2017 CET | From | Dorvische Sozialistische Union 🌹 | To | Debating the Call for early elections, March 4312 |
| Message | Did we say the TGP was bad? I beg for proof. |
| Date | 18:32:50, December 03, 2017 CET | From | Dorvische Kommunistische Partei | To | Debating the Call for early elections, March 4312 |
| Message | Mr. Chairman, The DSU said they "no longer feel satisfied about the coalition we are in and thus want to trigger early elections". Why did they feel that way, and why have they now changed their minds? All we are asking for here is some transparency. The public surely have a right to know. Anton Weinreich General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
| Date | 18:42:05, December 03, 2017 CET | From | Sozialdemokratische Union Dorviks (SUD) | To | Debating the Call for early elections, March 4312 |
| Message | You beg for proof? Not the first thing you begged me for sweethart. *a couple of MPs laugh alongside Saudek* How out of touch with reality do you have to be to ask me for proof after you called for an early election literally SECONDS after I asked you whether you'd be willing to support a vote of no confidence against the current government?! I'm pretty sure that that was my exact wording as well! Either have the guts to stand up to the TGP or admit that you're their lapdog! Theresa Saudek Leader of the BP |
| Date | 18:43:02, December 03, 2017 CET | From | Dorvische Sozialistische Union 🌹 | To | Debating the Call for early elections, March 4312 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, We obviously now are satisfied with the new arrangement, so we are going to go back to the coalition. |
| Date | 18:44:44, December 03, 2017 CET | From | Dorvische Sozialistische Union 🌹 | To | Debating the Call for early elections, March 4312 |
| Message | Ms. Saudek, We had already proposed the early election when you asked about the motion. |
| Date | 19:31:47, December 03, 2017 CET | From | Dorvische Sozial Nationale Volkspartei | To | Debating the Call for early elections, March 4312 |
| Message | Mr. Chairman, I will make things clear. Me and the DSU leaders have discussed matters privately. I urged them to stay in government since the military operation has to be completed with a stable government and since we have worked together excellently a new government would ony bring chaos and confusion to the military mission which would cause unnecessary deaths in the process. Theodore Aswalt, President of the Republic of Dorvik |
| Date | 22:11:37, December 03, 2017 CET | From | Grüne Demokratische Partei | To | Debating the Call for early elections, March 4312 |
| Message | Dorvik clearly has a government that is bringing chaos and that is falling apart at the seams. If the DSU will walk out of the coalition and then return at any time, what is to stop Dorvik grinding to a hold as these two parties bicker? Bianca Heilprin Leader of ED |
| Date | 00:25:18, December 04, 2017 CET | From | Dorvische Kommunistische Partei | To | Debating the Call for early elections, March 4312 |
| Message | Mr. Chairman, The government's credibility has clearly been shaken by recent events, but nevertheless, since the government is able and willing to continue, we will continue to offer them our best wishes, and will act as a constructive opposition, supporting where we can support, but opposing where we oppose. Anton Weinreich General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
