| Message | Mr. Speaker, Ambassador Russell Selwyn has engaged in political activity to the detriment of his own party and the people of Hutori. The law is clear - civil servants must remain political neutral, or they can't be civil servants. Russ has crossed a line and it is time to remove him from office. I hope all will join me in upholding the law.

| Message | Mr. Speaker, This is absurd. Russ was simply stating government policy. You've gone too far this time, Rebecca! I urge my friends in this party to vote against this bill. This is just ridiculous! Do you just hate everyone, Rebecca?! Why are you doing this? Why are you stopping us from doing our jobs? Peter Knox MP for Axminster South Disgruntled New Liberal MP |

| Message | Mr. Speaker What exactly did Ambassador Selwyn say that warrants his sanction? The statement "hoping cooler heads prevail" is in no way political nor favouring any side, merely an Ambassador commenting on ongoing issued with this House, caused unsurprisingly by the opposite side of this House. Being a Royalist does not mean one has breached Political Independence, nor is being a Republican. Natalie Cook Royalist House Leader |

| Message | Point of Order, Mr. Speaker, The MP from Axminster South just addressed me directly. This clearly violates the rules of this House. I move for his immediate expulsion. Rebecca Doyle MP for Prosperity Cove New Liberal Parliamentary Leader |
| Date | 20:51:21, June 26, 2018 CET | From | Liberal Party of Hutori | To | Debating the A Bill to Sanction Ambassador Selwyn for Blatant Political Activity |
| Message | Mr. Knox I remind you while you sit in this House you must observe Parliamentary decorum; you speak to this Chair, not to the Member on your bench. Ronald Tate Speaker of Parliament |
| Date | 20:53:05, June 26, 2018 CET | From | Federal Heritage Party of Hutori | To | Debating the A Bill to Sanction Ambassador Selwyn for Blatant Political Activity |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, I stand behind my staff, I will not buckle to this blatant disregard for procedure. Nor will I stand for this egregious overstep by Ms. Doyle, her place is not to decide who to keep and who to fire on my staff. I would also like to formally request that Ms. Doyle be placed under investigation immediately by the Parliamentary Ethics Committee John Greer Minister of Foreign Affairs |
| Date | 20:53:41, June 26, 2018 CET | From | Liberal Party of Hutori | To | Debating the A Bill to Sanction Ambassador Selwyn for Blatant Political Activity |
| Message | Mr. Speaker I'll also ask the Honourable Leader of the New Liberals; if the Ambassador must maintain political independence how can he possibly be a member of the New Liberal Party? Natalie Cook Royalist House Leader |
| Date | 20:54:14, June 26, 2018 CET | From | New Liberal Party of Hutori | To | Debating the A Bill to Sanction Ambassador Selwyn for Blatant Political Activity |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, My apologies for speaking directly to the member for Prosperity Cove, but I cannot stand by while she lies and sullies the name of a career public servant and ambassador for her majesty's government. Peter Knox MP for Axminster South Disgruntled New Liberal MP |
| Date | 20:55:48, June 26, 2018 CET | From | New Liberal Party of Hutori | To | Debating the A Bill to Sanction Ambassador Selwyn for Blatant Political Activity |
| Message | Point of order, Mr. Speaker, Did the member for Axminster South just call me a liar? This is also clearly against the rules of this house. He has been warned already today, I move for his immediate expulsion from today's proceedings of Parliament. Rebecca Doyle MP for Prosperity Cove New Liberal Parliamentary Leader |
| Date | 20:57:51, June 26, 2018 CET | From | Ultrackian Communist Party | To | Debating the A Bill to Sanction Ambassador Selwyn for Blatant Political Activity |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, We second the motion put forward by the Member from Prosperity Cove to expel Mr. Knox, but do not think Selwyn should leave. |
| Date | 21:43:54, June 26, 2018 CET | From | New Liberal Party of Hutori | To | Debating the A Bill to Sanction Ambassador Selwyn for Blatant Political Activity |
| Message | Don't do this, Rebecca. Please. There's just no point in this. Peter Knox MP for Axminster South Disgruntled New Liberal MP |

| Date | 21:49:38, June 26, 2018 CET | From | Liberal Party of Hutori | To | Debating the A Bill to Sanction Ambassador Selwyn for Blatant Political Activity |
| Message | Mr. Knox You have been warned. You are hereby expelled from this House for the remainder of the debate. I ask you to leave willing rather then having the Sergeant At Arms remove you. Ronald Tate Speaker of Parliament |
| Date | 21:57:45, June 26, 2018 CET | From | New Liberal Party of Hutori | To | Debating the A Bill to Sanction Ambassador Selwyn for Blatant Political Activity |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, I will leave willingly. As I make my way to the door, I ask the entirety of this house to vote against my misguided colleague's bill. I also want to let them know I am ashamed of the way my party has behaved as of late. I will do all I can to make this a functioning body again. Peter Knox MP for Axminster South Disgruntled New Liberal MP |
| Date | 22:06:13, June 26, 2018 CET | From | Hutori Party | To | Debating the A Bill to Sanction Ambassador Selwyn for Blatant Political Activity |
| Message | Mr Speaker, I too beg leave to table a motion for a parliamentary ethics committee investigation on the member for Prosperity Cove. Her treatment of her own MPs has been dispicable and the ethics commissioner must look into this issue. Brett Martin MP for Wrightstown Leader of the Royalist Party |
| Date | 22:11:54, June 26, 2018 CET | From | Liberal Party of Hutori | To | Debating the A Bill to Sanction Ambassador Selwyn for Blatant Political Activity |
| Message | To the Right Honourable Chancellor and the Honourable Minister of Foreign Affairs If you wish to table a motion I would suggest filing such a motion under a new Bill and moving it for a vote rather then attempting to push through a vote on this motion. Ronald Tate Speaker of Parliament |

| Random quote: The Wolfsheim Virus is not a real actual disease in the conventional medical sense of the term. Rather, it is a cluster of symptoms which are just part of the general socio-economic disease that is capitalism. The main symptoms the sufferers are experiencing are a direct result of capitalist poverty, as in malnutrition, poor housing and so on, combined with psycho-somatic symptoms which are a direct consequence of the contradictions and stresses which are inherent to the capitalist system. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer, General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
