| Message | Absolutely not. We will never allow relegious schools |
| Date | 02:05:32, April 01, 2008 CET | From | Conservative Party | To | Debating the Reform Act |
| Message | We do not understand the Old Guard Party's aversion to religious schooling. This is surely a bigoted, anti-patriotic, and irrational attack. |
| Date | 02:14:39, April 01, 2008 CET | From | The Conservative-Libertarian Party | To | Debating the Reform Act |
| Message | Education is a product in a free market, granted a very important product. In the spirit of competition, all students and parents should have the choice of where to attend, even if a religious school is the answer. We will support Article 3, but not 2. |

| 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. |
