| Message | Mr Speaker, This is a sacrilegeous bill, throwing people under the buss for the sake of imaginary numbers. We shall not tolerate this. We cannot expect better from right-wing nutcases other than throwing the common workers into the pit to save the wealth of the top 1%. |
| Date | 17:37:45, July 01, 2022 CET | From | Deltariánská Sociální Strana | To | Debating the Temporary Measures to Fight Recession |
| Message | Mr Speaker, We see the article banning the right of workers to collectively bargain with their employers as a grave violation of their rights as Deltarians and as an unnecessary imposition of state power upon the economy and labor markets. We support the other two proposals, but this article is a poison pill for our party and compels us to oppose. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, These measures are temporary only so as to prevent further economic downturn. Once the economy stop falling we can then remove these measures. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, It is a disgrace you all are even considering to gut people in order to save the top 1%. If it was to save the economy, made primarily of common folk, we wouldn't have this horrible legislation but actual state investment in key industries or fiscal measures to stop recession. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, This bill does not support the 1%. It brings the banks under government oversight so that their money is spent well. |
