| Message | Correct the spelling to Defence and we will vote for this. (We do use Commonwealth English in the former 'Commonwealth of Luthori', don't you know?) |

| Message | What a reason to vote against a bill, a difference in the spelling of a word. It is almost like the dispute between the Roman Catholic and Orthodox Churches over a line in the Nicene Creed (I forget the exact date, but it was around 1000 AD, I think). |

| Message | Done. Does this mean we can also count on you PUP to restore the name of the Empire to the "Imperial Commonwealth of Luthori" officially via constitutional amendment? ;) |
