Description[?]:
| Mr Speaker, it is time that we end the era of central planning and socialism in agribusiness. Instead of the unscientific practice of outlawing GMOs, pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides, we should legislate transparency and let the consumers decide themselves which products they are willing to buy and consume on this basis. We also propose to abolish land redistribution, a policy open for all kinds of corruption and favoritism. Fred Lamont MP Member for Ulbrach RFR Agriculture Spokesman |
