| Message | Women deserve the right to have an abortion. What of cases of rape or incest? Should the government really just tell Solentian Women, 'Too bad.' |
| Date | 02:40:37, October 28, 2012 CET | From | Gilde Mercantile Solentia | To | Debating the Abortion Bill |
| Message | The PoP will never approve of abortion unless emergencies but the PoUC is mad. The PoP sympathizes with these women but this does not mean that the life of the child must be terminated. If only there was an option on orphanages that will care for these unwanted children. The PoP would never compromise on abortion. -PoP Official Statement |

| Date | 03:34:53, October 28, 2012 CET | From | Gilde Mercantile Solentia | To | Debating the Abortion Bill |
| Message | PoP believes that all life should have rights, born or unborn. |
| Date | 04:41:51, October 28, 2012 CET | From | Party of United Citizens | To | Debating the Abortion Bill |
| Message | But if it is unborn than it is, debatably, not living. And even if it was living, shouldn't the born have more rights than the unborn? |
