| Message | Mr. Speaker, Such bill is full of heresy, fascism, anti-capitalism and jeopardizes women's safety and well-being. We cannot support such bill. Jakeem Goldberg |
| Date | 08:29:53, January 24, 2020 CET | From | Prince-Republican League - New EAPP | To | Debating the Human Rights Act |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, We are, in theory, ready to consider the proposals after the 1st of January 4701 when the Gaduri ultimatum has passed. Before it has passed, however, this passage of this proposal package will be seen by the international community as a grand display of utter weakness and demonstration of the lack of Lodamese independence. We simply must refuse. Adriokos von Hümpeldunk, Managing Director of EAPP Currency Foundation |
| Date | 10:07:39, January 24, 2020 CET | From | Lodamese Democratic Progressive Party | To | Debating the Human Rights Act |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, It appears that Gaduridos is backing down on the rhetoric that sparked this incident and is even withdrawing from the TSS Treaty themselves. It would turn out that their now-former Foreign Affairs Minister was acting in bad faith by threatening out nation and was subsequently replaced. I believe the worries of appearing weak are over now and we can now focus on domestic policy again without such worries. Martin Moray, GPP Leader Head of the Princely Council |
