| Message | An excellent move that supports the poorest and means that prices for non-essentials will fall. |
| Date | 20:01:47, July 15, 2013 CET | From | Green Republic Party (GRP) | To | Debating the Sales Tax 3515 |
| Message | Cannot believe it! The Libertarians and Liberals, in true to form fashion, patting themselves on the back for "supporting the poorest" when they are the ones who introduced the levy! Gosh! |
| Date | 23:32:45, July 15, 2013 CET | From | The Al'Badaran Libertarian Party | To | Debating the Sales Tax 3515 |
| Message | We only introduced it as a temporary measure and we've withdrawn it within two parliaments. This was simply to fix the massive whole in our financials! If the GRP is opposed to us doing this - they should vote accordingly. |
