| Message | We feel that the title of this legislation is misleading - if the 'UPP' are truly concerned with the agricultural industry and want to support it, they should propose subsidies. We see no 'support' for agriculture in this legislation. |

| Random fact: By default the head of government is the ultimate authority within a national government. In general terms, heads of government are expected to consult with cabinet colleagues (including those from other parties) before making significant decisions but they remain responsible for government action. |
