| Message | We support banning private hunting and fishing and killing of animals, but to nationalise the fishing industry and allow the government to set production levels is dangerous. More capitalist governments might set unsustainable production levels, perhaps less sustainable than the market would have done. |

| Message | We'll support, primarily because of article 2. |
