| Message | You call yourself liberal, and yet to restrict our liberty to an abortion? Seems like your more of a religious ultra-conservative. |
| Date | 15:53:51, August 10, 2008 CET | From | Liberal Progressive Party | To | Debating the Abortion (Limitations) Act |
| Message | We are liberals, but the current laws are insane. Abortion right up until birth is simply inhumane. |
| Date | 17:59:53, August 10, 2008 CET | From | Kirlawan People's National Congress | To | Debating the Abortion (Limitations) Act |
| Message | Actually, the last trimester is dangerous. It has nothing to do with inhumane or morality, but the mother actually has some chance of dying from an operation that seems minor at the beginning. |
| Date | 19:56:05, August 10, 2008 CET | From | Anti Egalitarian Alliance | To | Debating the Abortion (Limitations) Act |
| Message | People talk of the right to choose, but we say that right accrues the night before and not the morning after. The only justification for allowing abortion is to appease irresponsibility. |

| Message | We also support, for reasons that will appear in the Chrolicle at some point (I typed up a post but lost it because of my crap Internet) |
