| Message | Farming freedoms. More like bringing foot and mouth disease into the country. I agree that there needs to be some sort of freedom but to let farmers do what they want without being regulated is a very bad idea. If we sign up to this treaty how can we protect the population from diseases like foot and mouth disease. |

| Message | We strongly oppose Article 2 of the treaty, but are okay with the other two articles. Therefore we shall abstain. |

| Message | You whigs make me laugh. Vote yes or you will be removed from cabinet. Do you not care about what disease you will be bringing into the country and causing an epidemic. Farmers need to be regulated to see if they are not posing a massive risk on public health. |
