| Message | This could lead to children being adopted by neglectful or abusive parents. We do not think it is in the best interests of the children. |
| Date | 10:26:28, October 06, 2007 CET | From | Conservative Party | To | Debating the Adoption Bill |
| Message | It is the idea of the Conservative Party that this bill is detrimental to both children and potential parents. The children in question, as the Neo-Epicurean party stated, could end up being adopted by neglectful or abusive parents. Also, prospective adoptive parents will be deprived themselves should children be adopted by those who are undeserving. |
