| Message | Mr. Speaker, We need jobs in the private sector employees not a large number of soldiers. This proposal will severely hurt Dranish economy due to its proposed decreases of the budget in the most vital sectors of our country; education and science and technology. President Lucas Manon (R) Party Leader |
| Date | 00:23:48, May 17, 2013 CET | From | Dranish Conservative Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of February 3486 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, the government has irresponsibly just cut defence spending by around 40%. We desperately need to reverse these cuts and make sure Dranland is properly defended. After all, if we are invaded by foreigners and have the country taken away from us then it won't matter how prosperous our economy is or how advanced our education and science sectors are. Caron Rhydderch MP Chairman of the Dranish Conservative Party |
| Date | 00:45:47, May 17, 2013 CET | From | Freedom Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of February 3486 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, We are favourable to this proposal, and would support it, though we do not agree on each of the measures proposed. Drake Afron, MP |
