| Message | Mr. Speaker, We think that the choice of the experts is better than the choice of the simple people. But what the guarantee to the government don't use this law to destroy the rule of law? What the guarantee to the government don't appoint their own lawyers to cover the corruption or any other, illegal things of politicians? If we get answers for this questions with reasonable arguments, then we vote to "yes". Respectfully: Xander Fletcher, the Communication Director and the Temporary Supreme Second-delegate of the Left for Progress Party. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, It makes no sense to have unelected judges, unless you want the government to have more control over the judiciary system. What a shame. Our justice should be independent. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, Yes, they're independent if they are elected by the public because they represent the public and not the current ministry of Justice. |
