| Message | Madam Speaker, this will simply lead to famine and starvation. We will have people unable to eat due to food shortages, and it will hit the poorest in our society first. |

| Message | Madame Speaker, we may not always agree with the CLP, but here we are proud to stand with them to say that the advances crop modification has allowed are what sustains the people of Hutori today – without them, none of us would be able to stand, to eat, even to live here. |
