| Message | What are the LLP's justifications for the banning of GM crops? Unless there is some kind of chemical risk of sickness or disease inherant in GM crops, the TCP can see no logical reason in banning them. |

| Message | They are already banned. The LLP would like to see the ban lifted on them, but is initially only proposing this smaller reform, unless it is shown that support for for production and selling is high enough in this country. |

OGM are dangerous, and we have to destroy all the production,research and other. ooc: The European union is forbidding the spread and the commerce of a OGM that contain a resistant gene to antibiotics. the danger existed that eating those OGM a human being developed the resistance to antibiotics and became for he impossible to cure every disease. For this reason we propone to ban OGM forever. |
