| Message | Mr. Speaker, The HLC is an old fascist party and we hope that it will come back to its grave soon after coming out. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, What happens now is dangerous. These proposed laws and this party will become responsible for didactics, hatred, division and freedom, justice and fraternity will be abolished in our great society. A such society cannot function. This isn't anymore conservatism, this is clerical fascism. All parties should vote against it. Aida Bat-Elle MP Leader of the Opposition Leader of the CWP |

| Date | 00:03:59, April 06, 2020 CET | From | Holy Luthori Church ⚔️ | To | Debating the Return of the HLC |
| Message | Mr.Speaker, The HLC has returned to Luthori, and it will remain so, till the Lord wills otherwise. We have returned following a clear failure of the so called "secular right" in preserving the Empire, which the HLC helped found. We will not allow for the destruction of this HOLY Luthorian Empire, to the likes of the CPL, CWP, LP. If you support our Empire, and wish to be the agents of the Lord almighty in the restoration of this nations glory, then join us in our Crusade against these Red Radicals. If you however, seek to preserve your power, then be prepared for a war form the Lord and his children, who shall wreak havoc and destruction on his enemies. - HLC |
