| Message | You're losing seats, we are gaining them (Me and the NMrP that is). Anyway, just look at the stats, we have the lowest quotas in the entire world. |

| Message | I don't see those as convincing arguments. In the past you Exploited our liberal policy in regards to bills, and have showed little sign of repentance. What is the benefit of restoring the ability to exploit our system? |

| Message | You've lost seats from your over 30. And I know exactly why I lost seats. |

| Message | I oppose. The current system we have now works very well. Why does more bills? The Left controls the government, and has a fair majority. If he can propose more bills, they can pass more drastic changes to our policy. The same would be true if the Right was ever to regain control of the government. However, we currently have a very fair and moderate system, and any changes to it will not have my support. |

| Message | PPP: Yes. I thought if it worked for the Marxist Party, then it would work for me. Of course not, silly me. I just want to get more than 12 seats. I'm quickly losing interest because I seem to stay stagnant or decline with every election. |

| Message | Your opinions are almost the opposite of the People, as far as I can tell... hers are pretty close to them, esp. on the important issues. I think thats the difference. |

| Message | The 'people' have favoured the left for a long time. Well big government at least. I've been led to believe that they do change over time although the evidence looks pretty slim. I would say to the MB that your problem might be your 'coherency' - being a reasonably realistic party as you are you would tend to not vote always one way or the other on the market or government responsibilities, which the 'people' don't tend to like - just a suggestion. |

| Message | MB: So what I was like that for nearly a hundred years (game time that is) whereas before I won the elections and presedential elections about five/six times running wouldn't win and then would again. What's your point? Plus as the others have said it comes down to the issues themselves. I agree I do abstain a lot especially lately, although this has been due to a combination of work and now annoyingly enough illness, I don't abstain because I want to; going back to the point, it also comes down to which issues you abstain upon and their relevance to the 'People'. I've been lucky in that whenever I've abstained it tends to be on issues which the 'people' don't see as very relevant. However, if I start abstaining on issues that have much relevance I will lose seats. |
