| Message | Mr Speaker, If the White Rose vote for this proposal, then we know for sure that they're in this coalition deal for the ministerial car not for any Honourable reasons. Article 1 is reversing a reform made in their most recent term of office. Overall this proposal is a squalid attack on the welfare state of Luthori. As a result I look forward to the vote from the CMA. I wouldn't be surprised to see the Party that gained votes based on their second round preferenceing of the SDP and then turned their backs on everyone they were sent to the diet to represent did whatever was required to keep this absurd deal alive Ben Sullivan (TUSC Leader) |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, The introduction of presumed consent for organ donations is the Country Party’s proudest accomplishment. We will not vote to end a policy that has saved the lives of tens of thousands over the decades it has been law. I yield. William Ansell Leader of the Country Party |

| Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election. |
