Message | I agree with the majority of the proposals within this bill. However, I disagree with the proposal given in Article 2; all couples should have the right to adopt regardless of their sexual orientation. I also disagree with the proposal given in Article 3 as I believe that someone should have the right to die and be spared an otherwise painful or unpleasant death. I do agree with the government maintaining Higher Education Instituions. I will think about which are the more important values propose in this bill and decide eventually whether to vote yes or no. |

Random fact: Cabinet ministers who disagree seriously with the head of government would usually be expected to resign. Parties within the cabinet may attempt to manoeuvre to replace the head of government though, for example by proposing a new cabinet bill or voting for an early election. |
