| Message | Although the Green Democrats believe in clean environmental policies we believe that the outright ban of chemicals in farming is too extreme. The GD policy is that they should be used with caution and that measures are taken to avoid water pollution and harm to animals. We believe that chemicals play an important part in farming today as to ensure that enough crops our produced to support our internal market as well as exports. We will be voting no. |
