| Message | Mr. Speaker, The response of the Liberal Progressives to this bill can be stated in a single word: No. Sgt. Jeremy Cameron, Shadow Minister of Defence for the Liberal Progressives |
| Date | 10:31:21, June 25, 2018 CET | From | Progressive Socialist Party | To | Debating the Military budget increase |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, with heavy heart we must confess that while we were initially in favour of this increase, we cannot in good conscience support this spending increase. Mostly due to the fervent outcry by our voters to oppose this, as well as the pacifism stated clearly in our founding principles, we cannot support a spending increase. Luuk Voncken PSP party leader |
