| Message | While there are some good ideas here, the CJP cannot support article 2 (which opens the chance of lax safety in industry) or article 3 (which opens the chance that cannabis may become legal in some areas). |
| Date | 20:28:30, March 10, 2007 CET | From | Imperium et Libertas Party | To | Debating the Healthcare Manifesto of the ILP |
| Message | If we drop article III are you prepared to reconsider your stance on article II? (This would, after all, only lead to the possibility of cannabis being a legal drug under medical supervision. It doesn't legalise it for recreational use). |
