| Message | Hmm ... we like the salary cap one (since it's moving slightly in our preferred direction); but we dislike the other two (since they're moving slightly against our preferred direction). So on balance, we'll oppose, mildly. If the current laws on those two had been, say, "The government has no policy concerning daily working hours" and "Stock exchanges are allowed and are unregulated", then of course we would have voted in favour of this. Whereas if instead the only difference had been that the current law on the other one were "The government enforces a salary cap", then we would have strongly opposed the whole thing. |

| Message | If the Conservatives were to propose legislation mandating only the devolution of the authority to impose a salary cap, would parties other than the Justice Party support the bill? |
