| Message | Mr Speaker, Article 10 is unacceptable! Let the rich have homes and let the poor live on the streets! That's the Neo Liberal economic policy right there! There's no room for the downtrotten in their society instead they are not to be seen or heard. Carl Nicholas Hall Leader of the Social democratic Party |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, Rent caps have been economically proven to restrict the availability of homes as building operators have been unable to service large groups of people due to little available monetary resources. The caps have also led to large amounts of corruption in the renting industry as buyers consistently have to outbid other prospective buyers in covert bidding wars that benefit the building operators. We are simply trying to fix a broken housing system that your government created. Amanda Hall Leader of the Conservatives |
