| Message | While you now can, and probably will pass this, or something worse (from the PLPL perspective) of kicking the PLPL entirely out of the cabinet, we will oppose anything that grants the LITP the finance ministry so long as the LITP would not gain only the power to propose tax and spending changes but also to implement them unilaterally. We will be willing to back this proposal if and only if the LITP agrees that any budget or tax changes must be approved by both parties with seats or the LITP will abstain themselves on the bill (or simply keep it in debate and rework it until it is acceptable to both sides). |
| Date | 22:18:42, January 01, 2007 CET | From | Likaton Coalition of the Willing | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2338 |
| Message | We guarantee that we will not touch the tax policies or budget requirements until after the next election. We feel that this is an acceptable compromise. |

| Message | That is, and I will therefore vote for the proposed government. |
