| Date | 20:07:15, January 06, 2007 CET | From | Covenanters (IA) | To | Debating the Protection of Private Property Act |
| Message | If the Holy Empire needs something why should a concept as selfish and unChristian as "no, it's mine" get in the way? The DEFENCE OF THE REALM could be at stake here, think about it! |
| Date | 20:23:03, January 06, 2007 CET | From | Catholic Justicial Party - Solidarity | To | Debating the Protection of Private Property Act |
| Message | That sounds like Commie talk. Far more than creating minimum wage or legalising union strikes, land seizure by government is truly 'collectivist'. |

| Message | Technically all land is owned by the Crown anyway and property "owners" are actually Freehold Tenants. |
