| Message | Mr. Marshal This bill is ludicrous as it not only limits the cabinet to the largest party, but also in the event that the largest party can't form a cabinet, it causes deadlock in the government. As a result, we will nay this bill. Signed, Andrzej Tymoteusz Paszek, Leader of National Unity. |

| Message | Mr. Marshall, Do I have to say how the Party of National Coalition will vote on this motion? It is a heinous attack on democracy and the democratic values of our Republic. What point would that be to delegate the right to propose the coalition when our system is multipartisan? This would greatly limit the democratic standards of the Republic and introduce periods of political instabilities resulting from a common lack of consensus between parties on the formation of the cabinet and simply the incoherency of their policies. The current situation is the Sejm is the best example. Patriot's Time party would have met great difficulties as either the PKN or NU would not form a coalition with it. Jakub Polaniecki, President of the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Valruzia. |

| Message | Mr. Marshall, Despite our opposition, we would like to ask the honorable members of the Patriots' Time party to elaborate on the issue of those alleged misunderstandings and their characteristics. Is it just a coincidence that the Patriots' Time is currently the largest party and that it is now trying to undermine the very heart of the democratic parliamentary standards in Valruzia with this law? Jakub Polaniecki, President of the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Valruzia. |
