| Message | The Green & Liberal Socialist Party completely rejects this proposal to crush the civil liberties of the people and the destruction of our environment. You say your proposal represents the will of the people, where are you getting this information from? |
| Date | 01:17:44, October 06, 2012 CET | From | Independent Party | To | Debating the Religious & Ecology Reform Proposals |
| Message | The information was obtained from several polls taken by major news organizations including Lodamun Cable News (LCN). It is clear the GLSP is not in touch with the people of Lodamun. |
| Date | 01:24:20, October 06, 2012 CET | From | Green & Liberal Socialist Party | To | Debating the Religious & Ecology Reform Proposals |
| Message | Do link us with these polls then. Also, the fact that the Free Labour party, who are socialist, has won the last 5 elections clearly shows that the people do not want the independent's neoliberal economics which make the poor poorer and the rich richer. |
