| Message | Mr Speaker, The White Rose has not changed it’s position on this in 191 years. Frederick Stinson Chancellor and Imperial Seal-Bearer Deputy of the White Rose |
| Date | 12:37:28, June 13, 2018 CET | From | Trade Union and Socialist Coalition | To | Debating the First Economic Reform Act 4405 |
| Message | Mr Speaker, I think the Chancellor is confused, we know they've enjoyed oppressing the working class for this 191 years they won't shut up about, the only difference is they've found an even more dogmatic partner in crime. The Chancellor is also propounding the value of this bill doing much more than deregulate the stick exchange. Again, we know, they've been at it for years and they don't stop. This bill is nearly as economically illiterate as it is intellectually obnoxious. It's time this Government went before it does any more damage. Aaron West (TUSC - Finance Spokesman) |

| Message | Mr Speaker, The TUSC would not know much about Government and probably never will, but our convictions are just as important to us as theirs are to them, one could try be more respectful but that does not seem to be be lefts way anymore.

| Message | Mr Speaker, The Leader of the Oppositon should heed her own advise if she checks the logs. The SDP implemented these reforms, we are reversing them. Frederick Stinson Chancellor and Imperial Seal-Bearer Deputy of the White Rose |
| Date | 20:55:33, June 13, 2018 CET | From | Trade Union and Socialist Coalition | To | Debating the First Economic Reform Act 4405 |
| Message | Mr Speaker, For the Chancellor of a great country to completely misunderstand Parliamentary Democracy is a sad state of affairs. We have a parliamentary not presidential system, meaning that we get our mandate from the people that vote for us to argue our case on their behalf. When an election is over the largest Party doesn't get to hysterically scream “will of the people" like a broken record. On the question of working class people voting for my party, it's clear by the large regional discrepancy in our vote that the vote is very class based. If the election was voted for solely by the working class then myself and the Honourable Lady, the leader of the Opposition would be sat around the cabinet table. The White Rose as we know is the party of the middle class, and so they come here and represent them. In Opposition the interests of our voters are what we stand up for, and we won't stop whatever the Chancellor says. |
