| Message | National rights of man? What kind of lofty thinking is that? Rights come only from the point of a bayonet. |
| Date | 14:00:22, September 19, 2005 CET | From | Marchioness Party | To | Debating the Genetical Modification Bill |
| Message | How will the government maintain law and order, if there are no taxes to fund it? What is the answer, shall we contract everything out, eg fire services, and watch while our citizens haggle over contract negotiations BEFORE the firemen will even ATTEND the scene of their burning home? In this topic, the MP believes that labelling will allow consumers the FREEDOM to CHOOSE GM products, or not if they desire, thus the MP will SUPPORT this bill. |
