| Message | Although we support, the current proposals are hardly excessive. |
| Date | 16:23:32, June 17, 2008 CET | From | Kommunisticheskiy Komitet Rabochih | To | Debating the Reclaim the Streets |
| Message | Perhaps not in terms of a democratic and accountable government - in the hands of the current Tsarist regime that has demonstrated its opposition to human rights and democracy it can be used to excesses. |

| Message | No state of emergency has been declaredand the police dispersing groups that pose a risk to public safety isn't exactly an undesirable policy to have. |

| Message | Public safety is a subjective thing - your government has made it clear that you think the very idea of people challenging the rigid Tsarist autocracy is a threat to public safety. What is to stop the police applying this policy in the form of oppressing anti-monarchist demos? And why exactly are you defending a policy you are voting against? |

| Message | The DLP want to reduce our streets to riotous anarchy by stripping the authorities of any legal capacity to stop such chaotic behaviour. The DLP have shown that they place the rights of riff-raff to run wild in the streets above the rights of safety for the innocent public. They therefore sponsor unstablising and uncivil behaviour in public, and sponsor the direct threat of public safety. This is absolutely outrageous and unacceptable. |
