Date00:14:28, March 12, 2010 CET
From Hutorian Conservative Party
ToDebating the Army Act
MessageMadam Speaker, we want to see our Hutorian Armed Forces returned to the peak of their powers. They need to have all options available to them, not have weapons restrictions on them and have an incompetent government cripple our army!

Date06:49:27, March 12, 2010 CET
From House Lusk-Nat'l Syndicalist Party (UM)
ToDebating the Army Act
MessageMr Speaker, we would support this bill except for the creation of state defence industries. Nevertheless, we give our reluctant yay.

Date10:58:12, March 12, 2010 CET
From Conservative-Libertarian Party (UM)
ToDebating the Army Act
MessageMr Speaker, it is this bill that will cripple our armed forces. It will take vital money away from front line services, equipment and operations and instead see it squandered on weapons that will be rarely used, if ever used. Furthermore, Mr Speaker, our reputation as a moral and fair military will be squandered over night.

Date16:59:45, March 12, 2010 CET
From Hutorian Conservative Party
ToDebating the Army Act
MessageMr Speaker, the CLP putting a price on the safety of this nation! Surely it is the governments job to protect its citizens yet the CLP are opting out because it is too expensive. Perhaps they should move aside and let another one of their UM patries run the finances because the CLP are not up to it!

Date18:19:47, March 12, 2010 CET
From Conservative-Libertarian Party (UM)
ToDebating the Army Act
MessageMr Speaker, we have existed for a very long time without nuclear weapons at all. Was the nation endangered? No, Mr Speaker, one could argue its safety may even have been enhanced.

As usual, Mr Speaker, the HNP are simply scaremongering. They know full well that the Ministry of Defence has, along with the Ministries of Justice and the Interior, the largest budget of all the departments. Mr Speaker, the people of Hutori would have something to say if a government were to slash spending on health and education simply to fund a bomb that would never be used. Mr Speaker, this is a reckless bill.

Date18:24:23, March 12, 2010 CET
From Hutorian Conservative Party
ToDebating the Army Act
MessageMr Speaker, the CLP are painting a picture that we would have a huge nuclear arsenal. We would propose a small but effective nuclear stock. But is it worth risking the nations safety to save money?

Date18:32:24, March 12, 2010 CET
From Conservative-Libertarian Party (UM)
ToDebating the Army Act
MessageMr Speaker, we must turn the question back on the HNP. Is it worth spending money to risk the nation's safety? Nuclear missiles do not improve the safety of the people one iota.

Date18:40:46, March 12, 2010 CET
From Hutorian Conservative Party
ToDebating the Army Act
MessageMr Speaker, it is worth spending the money to ensure the nations safety! Nuclear Missiles will only make the Hutorian position even stronger!
