| Message | Mr. Humperdinck, We had two elections in 5237, one in 5239 and another in 5240. 4 elections in 4 years and with a turnout below 20%. The Luthorian People want a stable government that can rule for a full 4-years term. The other MPs made the choice to resign and it is only their fault if they do not represent their constituents. Matt Graffney, MP. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, By elections are needed as many people are not represented anymore, even if it's the fault of many politicians left.the fact that this government has NO legitimacy as it would NOT have a majority if ALL the seats where filled. Your C&S partners dissolved. All what the Left Party and Rally for Luthori are doing is alienating the voters and all the other political parties in Luthori. Tom Humperdinck Leader of List Humperdinck |

| Message | This government was formed after 2 parties were forcefully dissolved. The voters need to have a vote on this murder of democracy via use of state apparatus. All this government does is to be mad, mad, mad. Cornelius Henderson Leader of Volkspartei von Luthori. |
| Date | 21:34:25, January 16, 2023 CET | From | Liberal Party | To | Debating the Call for early elections, July 5242 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, Though we think that the rest of our opposition allies are right in assesing the situation in regards to representation, we disagree that another election would benefit this nation. We need strong and stable leadership, do we agree with this government? No. But it provides stability. |
| Date | 12:26:07, January 17, 2023 CET | From | Luthorian Labour - Progressive Wing 🛑 | To | Debating the Call for early elections, July 5242 |
| Message | While this government is devoid of quality, the Whigs are right in the fact that a vast majority of Luthorians would rather have a stable government than an unstable alliance across left and right. While the arguments against this government are valid and strong, we shall abstain due to the expected outcome of turmoil. |
