Message | Mr. Speaker, We cannot support this disaster of a proposal that completely contradicts Luthori tradition. The LDU cannot call themselves a conservative party and support berating Luthori tradition with wildly progressive policies that work against the benefit of our nation's culture and history. This bill in itself is offensive to the Luthorian people. Amanda Hall Leader of the Conservatives |
Date | 09:36:46, July 18, 2018 CET | From | Social Democratic Party | To | Debating the Republican proposal - Abolition of Monarchy |
Message | Mr Speaker, It seems that for once we are able to agree with the Conservative party. What in God's name were the LDU party leadership smoking when they came up with this bill? May lord forgive them. Long live the monarchy. Long live Majesty Mary |

Message | Mr Speaker, We are conservative but a modern conservative party. Our ideology does not date back to middle ages. We think that it is about time to get rid of the queen and the monarchy. And to SDP claims that we were smoking something when we proposed this; i could say that you are on something every time i see your economic proposals. And if you consider yourself a social democratic party you should be for republic and liberal on social issues. While your economic protectionism and strong social conservatism indicate more of a fascist than a sociald democratic ideology. Regards, Nicholas Ferina |

Message | Mr Speaker, Whilst the SDP will almost certainly vote against this proposal, killing the possibility of a 2/3 majority for this Change, one thing is abundantly clear, there is now a majority in the Diet for a Democratically elected Head of State, and a Luthori that rejects hereditary privileges. Something has changed today, Luthori is moving forward. Ben Sullivan - Chancellor and Imperial Seal Bearer |

Message | Mr Speaker, Some will find this strange but i hope that the TUSC, LDU and LRP get 2/3 in the next elections. They are left wing we are centre-right but we see that they are the only one who want changes forward. Regards, Nicholas Ferina, LDU |

Message | Mr. Speaker, The LDU are mistaken if they think they're centre-right. The positions they take on key issues are borderline radical and makes them nothing short of a far-right party that cannot be trusted to make crucial decisions, much less determining whether or not the monarchy is a suitable government system. Amanda Hall Leader of the Conservatives |
