| Message | The BRP for one does not entirely approve of calling elections every time a party folds. However, there was appetite for an early election by other parties with the NDP left the fold. The BRP is therefore expecting consistency from among the parliamentary parties. This is especially pertinent given that the Peace Party actually held more seats than the NDP did previously, Therefore if there was a vital need to address the vacant seats in the previous case, then it is even more important now. The BRP will be interested to see which parties vote differently this time, and for what reason. |

| Message | Could we not have waited until the other bills being voted on were passed before voting on the early election motion? |

| Message | Hm. Look who didn't vote this time but did the last! Sorry to interrupt the passing of your bills, UBWP - but it was rather cheeky of you to present new bills AFTER this call for elections was made and then not vote in this bill and complain that the early election would abort your bills already being voted on. The BRP acted in good faith to wait for those already being voted upon to pass, but is not prepared to play your games in trying to delay the early election. |

| Message | Most of my previous bills were passed before this passed, so thank god for that. OOC: How could I have known when anyone was going to come online to vote on this? I cannot predict when or when you are not online. I was hoping that no one would pass this when bills that had overwhelming support were still at vote and still had not meet the voting deadline. Also, nowhere have I tried 'to delay the early election'. I did not vote so as to allow for the bills at vote to pass the deadline before an early election was called. Just because I did not vote does not automatically mean I do not support an early election. I have always supported an early election whenever there have been vacant seats. You can look up the legislation history of early election motions and also my own early election proposals. This being proposed at the same time when bills were at vote to me was a time clash. Also, two bills being proposed after the early election is not a big thing, no need to get riled up about it. Hopefully you understand. These are troubling times, it is not easy for everyone. Some might think they won't ever catch coronavirus just because they are young and all that, some are concerned about catching it. Just so that everyone knows, I tested negative for coronavirus, and I am now in a 14 day quarantine, and I have to take another test before the end of it. So at the moment I am trying hard to not get sick, so it would be great if you all respected that (oh, and I'm not the type that denies that coronavirus won't impact me just because I'm young) Thank you, and I apologise if this message came out as aggressive to certain individuals. It is not representative of my character in any ways, but there are some things I am passionate about and which I can go on the offensive about. |

| Random fact: By default the head of government is the ultimate authority within a national government. In general terms, heads of government are expected to consult with cabinet colleagues (including those from other parties) before making significant decisions but they remain responsible for government action. |
