| Message | We agree with all articles how ever we believe that it would be better if it was 400 or 300 seats instead of 450 but would vote for this legislation either way |

| Message | OOC: I share your love for round numbers, but I've chosen 450 because 1) it looks better in parliament diagrams than both 500 and 400, and 2) while 300 looks better than 450, I think a 50% reduction from the original 600 is far too drastic. |
