| Message | It isn't really, you can be noble and support a cabinet bill if you view it to be good. |
| Date | 20:56:43, June 19, 2005 CET | From | Social Conservative Party | To | Debating the Center coalition proposal |
| Message | I could have done that, indeed. But I don't find a coalition programm. What's this government going to do? Besides, I don't have any actual votes yet, so it doesn't matter that much. |

| Message | Government's program is simple: science - support science with grant program, keep patents to minimum policy, offer only basic subsidies to agriculture foreign - end dorvik dispute in good will of both parts internal - keep crime low economic - free market policy defense - keep small well trained professional army justice - oversee and defend civic rights & liberties infrastructure - support less developed regions with building of new business parks and highly effective roads/railways, oversee and enforce universal service at costs available for all incl. those with low incomes health and social svcs - make everyone pay something as this brings feeling of value, but provide service vouchers for those in need (make those that can afford it pay full amount) education - support balanced state-run and private education at all levels, allow wide-open opinion spectre |

| Message | As conservatives we see some minor flaws in this program, but we'll change our vote into a symbolic support for the cabinet. |
| Date | 23:12:35, June 19, 2005 CET | From | Libertarian Party | To | Debating the Center coalition proposal |
| Message | I could agree with you on need being more pro-market oriented, but you know this is center coalition ;-) |

| Message | On the result of the vote: this is a little ridiculous, since the USF went inactive. If we count the legislature without the USF, the bill was passed. On the coalition program: I know it's a center coalition, but the SCP isn't part of it, so we have the luxury of being able to protest every minor detail we don't like. |

| Message | I agree that it IS ridiculous. |

| Random fact: Cabinet ministers who disagree seriously with the head of government would usually be expected to resign. Parties within the cabinet may attempt to manoeuvre to replace the head of government though, for example by proposing a new cabinet bill or voting for an early election. |
