| Message | "A devastating attack by the pacifist Tories on the defence of the nation, and a deliberate assault on the Conservative party's visibilities designed to be nothing but rejectable by our party. It seems that the Left Radicals are not the only Solentian party capable of dirty politicking." Grant Randall |
| Date | 22:25:39, June 02, 2010 CET | From | Social Democratic Party of Solentia | To | Debating the Tory Election Manifesto 2948 |
| Message | "Today, the Tory party has shown itself as who they really are - an immoral lot of elitarists who don't hesitate for a minute to propose profound cuts at civil rights. This can not and must not be the way a party aspires political responsibility. The SDP strictly opposes." -James Spader, SDP chairman |
