| Message | It's not often Rote Bewegung agrees with political parties on the other end of the political spectrum, but in this case we do! They even asked us to support fresh elections, knowing full well the collapse of right wing parties would allow them to pick up the vast majority of their votes. The VFD are after one thing, and one thing only: power! If they don't want to look like hypocrites, they will support this bill! Christoph Enkelmann, Rote Bewegung Vorsitzender |

| Message | There is a difference between 34 seats and 205 seats being empty. There is a massive difference. Florence Kirsch-Schlechter Co-Leader of Awaken |

| Message | If you stood by your principles, the amount of seats shouldn't matter! What happened to representing the people, as you said in the last bill for early elections. Christoph Enkelmann, Rote Bewegung Vorstizender |
| Date | 19:18:15, April 18, 2018 CET | From | Grüne Demokratische Partei | To | Debating the Call for early elections, April 4380 |
| Message | Yes, we said that. Of course, there were over 200 seats vacant and three parties have dissolved. This time, a single, smaller party has dissolved. We didn't support early elections when the first party dissolved, or even the second - we proposed them when hundreds were empty. Florence Kirsch-Schlechter Co-Leader of Awaken |

| Message | So, by your reasoning,some people are more important than others. When right-wing voters aren't represented you're more than prepared to support fresh elections, but when left-wing voters aren't represented it's a different matter. The hypocrisy of your party is unbelievable!! Christoph Enkelmann, Rote Bewegung Vorsitzender |

| Message | No, 210 seats worth of people IS more important than 30 seats worth of people When 30 seats are unrepresented, we can manage. When 210 seats are represented, we can't really carry on. Florence Kirsch-Schlechter Co-Leader of Awaken |

| Message | The people who aren't represented can't manage though can they?! How are they supposed to raise concerns with their representatives if there are no representatives. Christoph Enkelmann Rote Bewegung Vorsitzender |
