| Message | Defence budget increased. I am afraid I must vote no. |
| Date | 10:49:26, August 04, 2014 CET | From | Freedom Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of May 3706 |
| Message | A marginal increase on the defence budget while all other budgets that were gutted by 90% are given substantial funds. Only a morally bankrupt party would vote against a proposal that would be so beneficial to their constituents in policing, agriculture, the environment and trade. Like we should've expected anything else. |
