| Message | For the time being I think that education and social services could stand to take a more drasitic cut until the end of the war. |
| Date | 03:32:38, September 10, 2010 CET | From | Capitalist Party | To | Debating the Wartime Budget Proposal |
| Message | why are we cutting down science and technology if we want to find better weapons and create better bombs |
| Date | 03:32:54, September 10, 2010 CET | From | Capitalist Party | To | Debating the Wartime Budget Proposal |
| Message | overall I support though |
| Date | 11:54:56, September 10, 2010 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Wartime Budget Proposal |
| Message | Letter to Telamon's Parliament. We urge you to reconsider your war stance. If you think your Defence budget is ready for war feel free to examine ours - http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=300310&vote=yes. I think you will find Hutori is suitbly sorted financially for this war and your nation already faces destruction. We demand your Parliament ratifys the specific treaty. Also, regarding a statement from the Urban Party to Hutori - we do not know if you are aware of this - it read; I am also calling for the following steps to be taken in conjunction with this resolution: 1. Declaration of a State of Emergency in all 5 states 2. Curfew between the hours of 7pm and 4 am 3. Military officers stationed in every major city 4. Immediate expulsion of any Hutori citizen I find it funny that this unrepresented party are now dictating terms to the Telamon government in times of war. Their four proposals show that they are just power hungry more than anything else and are looking after their own interests primarily rather than Telamons. We remind you that Hutori will withdraw all troops from Telamon if the Hutori/Telamon Unification Treaty is ratified then this can all be resolved. |
| Date | 16:03:04, September 10, 2010 CET | From | Urban Party of Telamon | To | Debating the Wartime Budget Proposal |
| Message | The UPT is not a power hungry party and are simply looking out for our country while our government sits idlely by and does nothing. |
| Date | 00:19:17, September 11, 2010 CET | From | Noocratic Movement | To | Debating the Wartime Budget Proposal |
| Message | We do not stand a chance! Political sanctions, or things of the source are a better alternative to war with Hutori. (At least for now) |
| Date | 01:31:33, September 11, 2010 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Wartime Budget Proposal |
| Message | We thank the Noocratic Movement and their logic is undenyable. Your proposal to mobilise what 340,000 troops is condeming them to their deaths. Hutori already has mobilised 1,800,00 men into Telamon and 3,000,000 Troops are preparing to cross the Hutori/Telamon border. All this can be resolved with the simple acknowledgement of Hutorian Monarchial rule in Telamon by appointing George I as your King. Hutori will declare a ceasefire should this demand be met. |
| Date | 01:40:35, September 11, 2010 CET | From | Urban Party of Telamon | To | Debating the Wartime Budget Proposal |
| Message | Telamon will NOT bend to the extreme demands of the Hutori government. It seems to me that the Hutori government is "insecure" and has decided to use Telamon as it's way to compensate for that insecurity. Tell me, what has compelled Hutori to attack Telamon and no Davostan? Are they not another nation on this continent as well? This move simply proves that Hutori is nothing more than a cowardly nation that picks on the small nation's because it knows if it were to attack say Luthori, it would be destroyed. |
| Date | 01:54:21, September 11, 2010 CET | From | Union for Active Resistance | To | Debating the Wartime Budget Proposal |
| Message | We echo the sentiments of the Urban Party. No foreign invader will find a peaceful lodging in Telamon. |
| Date | 18:06:05, September 11, 2010 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Wartime Budget Proposal |
| Message | We have been monitoring Telamon politics for some time now. To respond to the comments of the Urban Party. For us to attack Luthori would be silly. We only seek dominance over the continent of Macon and Davostan is already so similar to Hutori in its politics where the SRP have been immovable for near 1000 years. Telamon is a weak nation on our borders and we have invited you to become part of a Hutorian Empire - something that would increase your standing on a global scale. Secondly, our demands are not unreasonable. The House of Hutori and George I, is the only recognised King on the continent of Macon and he should rule over as much of this territory as possible. We want a peaceful resolution like the TNIP and we are pleased to have them as our allies in Telamon. We see the appointment of George I as Telamon Monarch as the only solution to this war. Good day. |
