From | Catholic Workers Union | To | Debating the Letters Pattent 2289 | | Message | Edit it. The British Empire does not exist, this is an alternative reality. Make up something to replace that.
Otherwise we support and thank the Centrists for their many honors to our late party leader. |

From | Telamon Royalist Party | To | Debating the Letters Pattent 2289 | | Message | ((Yes. Edit it, and change the names to ones more Telamonian in flavour, and we'll support it, too. (Oh, and by the way, I believe the Privy Councillor titles should go to the /heads/ of the partys, not to the partys /themselves/...))) |

From | Páirtí Sóisialach | To | Debating the Letters Pattent 2289 | | Message | (Why are we speaking in parentheses) A few things: I cannot see the names of party leaders unless a party forms government; also, we agreed, way back when, to recognise HM as Queen with no powers, but to establish, furthermore, the honours lists of the British Empire(: OM, CH, CVO, DL, etc.). I think this occured even before you arrived, IADP, but ever since, we have used the honours for our purposes of honouring long-term governments and leaders that kick-off. In an attempt to please you, I will opt for some dominion orders as opposed to Empire orders. |

From | Páirtí Sóisialach | To | Debating the Letters Pattent 2289 | | Message | Do not you remember? Convenient isn't it? Don't you remember the letters pattent that made you a privy councillor? I changed orders, so what do you think? |

From | Catholic Workers Union | To | Debating the Letters Pattent 2289 | | Message | I remember it, but I wasn't in charge then.
Honestly, it's not a big deal but Telamon has no queen, and if we ever did recognize Britain we should undo it, because that's just wrong. |

From | Páirtí Sóisialach | To | Debating the Letters Pattent 2289 | | Message | So law doesn't matter if you weren't there when it came into effect? I don't remember such opposition at the time. Can we just let these honours pass so that the family of the deceased can go on and that the country may honour our fallen leaders? Let the Republic debate alone for later. |

From | Catholic Workers Union | To | Debating the Letters Pattent 2289 | | Message | Fine, we'll vote for this. But after the election we're stamping out this absurd notion of the Queen of England nominally rules over Telamon. |
| Date | 11:07:57, September 30, 2006 CET |
From | Telamon Royalist Party | To | Debating the Letters Pattent 2289 | | Message | We agree with the IADP. After all, the very basis of the Telamon Royalist Party is that we HAVEN'T had a queen, or king for that matter, for about 700 years, and our party wants to reinstitute the monarchy! |

From | Páirtí Sóisialach | To | Debating the Letters Pattent 2289 | | Message | (Perhaps you should have thought of that before you created your party)-sorry, couldn't help it. As I've said elsewhere, I will open the Republic debate after the elections. Sound fair? |
| Date | 03:16:06, October 01, 2006 CET |
From | Telamon Royalist Party | To | Debating the Letters Pattent 2289 | | Message | (I had been told by the IADP and the TPB, who were the other active parties at the time, that we had a few of the trappings of a monarchy, but without an actual monarch, which is why I structured the party the way I did.) |
