| Message | Mr Speaker, is this the same Labour Party that voted in this Act? (http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=291689) I think this Act is a serious contradiction. Are the Labour Party intentionally changing their views every 10 seconds? |
| Date | 16:17:54, May 23, 2010 CET | From | Labour Party | To | Debating the Biological Weaponry Manufacture Prohibition Act |
| Message | Mr Speaker, both of these are utterly ethical acts. This one however does not have ethics at its cenrtepiece, but common sense. It is illegal for hutori to use chemical or biological weaponry anyway, so why should we spend money manufacturing them. This is absolutely compatible with the previous act. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, the point is not that these Acts are incompatible. The point is that the Labour Party condone the use of Nuclear Weaponry, yet now they want to restrict chemical and biological weapons? Obviously the Labour Party has not no idea of its own military policy. You should either be pro or against all types of weapons. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, the HNP dare to lecture the Labour Party on flip-flopping? They invented flip-flopping! Just look at their votes on prison policy! |
| Date | 21:12:13, May 23, 2010 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Biological Weaponry Manufacture Prohibition Act |
| Message | Mr Speaker, typical CLP having to fight the Labour Parties battle for them. The HNP votes on prison policy are irrelevant. Either one of those options result in punishment for prisoners rather than the comfortable lifestyle they currently have in Hutorian prisons. |

We will seek to improve the lives of the people around us. This struggle will be as costly as the struggle against the bourgeois army, and indeed will be even more damaging to the enemy.” - Comrade X, former Hulstrian politician |
