| Message | Until surety is given that Kirlawa entering the Imperial commonwealth does not impact on the sovereignty of this nation this bill will remain on the floor. Otherwise the SDLP will push for a vote. |

| Message | If you fear tyranny in the form of a foreign crown look not to Luthori and the commonwealth as an institution but to threat of socialism and Aurorian popery. By no means is the Republic in danger of those wishing to benefit from its abolition. We will maintain the status quo and I shall see to it that the head of the commonwealth understands and respects this. |

| Message | Parties of Kirlawa do you not see what some here would wish to achieve. This great nation brought into the clutches of foreign imperial powers. If we the elected representatives cannot protect the people of Kirlawa from these dangers I fear others in our society will. The sectarian agenda has been revealed do not be fooled by offerings of trade and foreign monies. There are those that would wish to break the very fabric of our society. |

| Message | Please speak for yourself and not others. You are fearmongering your merry way into oblivion. There is no conspiracy to destroy the Republic nor is there any such attempt to incite sectarian strife. My party purposed membership in the commonwealth as a path to economic growth and prosperity something your party never managed to accomplish. The commonwealth means more to us Luthorans than it does anyone else in Kirlawa pity you failed to see that aspect of things but then again no partt in this country speaks for our interests. |

| Message | I have not spoken for others rather I have expressed fears that if we continue on a path to welcoming a foreign monarchy that would lay claim to this land there may be sections of this community that will not welcome such a move. |

| Message | I promise you and this land that no one shall undermine our sovereignty. I have taken steps to assure the people of Kirlawa of this. however as the movement I haven't heard back from The Luthori head of state in regards to our stipulation. |
| Date | 11:52:02, April 26, 2018 CET | From | All Kirlawa Unionist Party | To | Debating the Reaffirmation of the Republic |
| Message | we object to #2 on the grounds of such act designed to prohibit the burning of the national colours as constituting a flagrant violation of freedom of speech. |
| Date | 19:26:23, April 26, 2018 CET | From | Kirlawan Social Democrat Party | To | Debating the Reaffirmation of the Republic |
| Message | I would see such an act as incitement to be honest. But then again each party and person has their own perspective. |

| Random quote: "If democracy is ever to be threatened, it will not be by revolutionary groups burning government offices and occupying the broadcasting and newspaper offices of the world. It will come from disenchantment, cynicism and despair caused by the realization that the New World Order means we are all to be managed and not represented." - Tony Benn |
