| Message | While we are supportive of a stronger military, we refuse to do this through increased taxation. Further military spending must be tied to cuts in other areas. We also again condemn the Liberals for wasting this chambers time with endless budgets. |

| Date | 05:01:31, September 05, 2008 CET | From | Reformed Conservative Party of Lodamun | To | Debating the Budget proposal of December 2631 |
| Message | The RCPL stands behind the comments made by the Christian League of Lodamun. We will support the greater spending in defense, but with new legislation which has offered private alternatives to several industries, health care, and education, it is prudent to lower our spending in those areas. |
