Message | Reason for voting against? |
Date | 18:09:02, August 17, 2008 CET | From | The Liberal Party | To | Debating the Emergency Border Control Act |
Message | We are trying to be nice here (as petitioned by the PM) but according to the State of Emergency Act, the government can do whatever it deems necessary to ensure the security of our citizens. The PM asked us to introduce this bill as a sign of good faith but unfortunately no good faith exists in Parliament. |

Message | In order to assist, the Likaton Defence Ministry is happy to share any resource in tracking known threats to Lodamun security, if details of those threats are provided. We would be remiss if we did not support Lodamun in ensuring it's sovereign boundaries stay such. Minister for Defence, Malcolm Reynolds, Likaton Convocation. |

Message | We are not going to fall into that trap again, Mr. Reynolds. We did many years ago and it led to the killing of millions of our citizens. Our security is more than secured. Thank you for your offer but we will not accept. Joint Statement Signed By: Nolan N. Norton- Prime Minister and First Commander of the Armed Forces Pete Alexander- Minister of Defense |

Message | If you are referring to events that took place over 70 years ago, we'd have hoped you'd grown. No-one who was in government at that terrible time is still alive, and the devastation in both our nations is almost undone. The GLNF, prime offenders, has been disbanded, and measures taken against those involved. We make such an offer to help, in the spirit of international co-operation. |

Message | Is that OOC? It sounds like it might be. OOC: That's what history books are for, correct? |

Random quote: On 7th February 4281 a group of renowned Metzist experts from all across Terra met in Haldor to form the International Committee for the Estimation of the End Date of Capitalism (ICEEDC). With the assistance of a powerful computer, they calculated that capitalism will terminate Terra-wide on 6th November 4320, and in Dorvik on April 17th 4310. We have no reason whatsoever to believe these very eminent and learned scholars are wrong. They have never been wrong about anything before. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer, General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
