| Message | Euthanasia is murder. It is simple; allowing doctors to kill off their patients because they have something wrong with them is just cruel. And please explain what happens if the doctor makes a mistake with his identification of a disease and the patient dies from euthanasia. We cannot afford mistakes when it comes to people's lives, it is just plain obvious. Horace Grumsworth President of the Tea Party |

| Message | A doctor is a medical graduate. They are in a better place to judge someone's situation then a court. We don't see a judge doing better then a doctor here. In this area a judge is more likely to make a mistake then a doctor. Progressive Liberals |

| Message | Do you know how courts work? In this instance the doctor provides the court with evidence and his logical reasoning to why he recommends euthanasia. As there must be 4 jurors who are specialised in health, they are bound to be able identify whether or not this doctor has identified the disease correctly and that euthanasia is the right option. The court system is to give time so that doctors have identified the disease correctly and so that he doesn't make a mistake. Kingsley Smith Minister of Health and Social Services |

| Message | The TP seem to position themselves as a party which celebrates freedom of choice, but wishes to make it difficult for people who wish to die humanely. I would trust the patient and the doctor over a lengthy court case any day. |
