| Message | Mr. Speaker, the PSP can agree to turn this back, but reminds the LWA that this also requires the representation law to change, otherwise we will never elect a full house as we have 5 provinces, and this would only increase the amount of seats by 4.

| Random fact: The people in your nation don't like inactive parties. When you often abstain from voting for a bill, they will dislike your party and your visibility to the electorate will decrease significantly. Low visibility will means you are likely to lose seats. So keep in mind: voting Yes or No is always better than Abstaining. |
