| Message | Mr speaker, We would rather religious doctrine be used to determine the very few cases where capital punishment would be permitted. I yield. |

| Message | To the Rt Hon. representative of the BCD, We recognize that this issue is sensitive. That there is no one clear path, what we are suggesting is a new approach. Clearly after the next election if this process has been judged ineffective in its function they we will be the first to support its removal. I yield the floor. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, The death penalty is the ultimate punishment. It should not be handed out for misdemeanors. I cannot allow my party to support this bill. I yield the floor. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, This legislation is a step backwards into barbarianism. A Christian society tries to reform minor criminals, not execution them for the first offence. I yield the floor. Belinda Braithwaite (Leader of the LCWA) |

| Message | ..::Rises::.. To the pretty little...oh I apologize I mean the Rt Hon Lady of the LCWA. If you could direct my attention to what line of this proposal says first time offenders for small crimes will be executed? Please, I don't seem to have that speaking point on my copy... no no, not here. Wait, it would seem you are making things up. Well I do understand women can be a bit scatter brained perhaps you were reading something in the paper this morning...wait never mind women don't read the paper. I would request Belinda, that you read the proposals before you split open that little mouth on your pretty little face. I yield the floor. |
