| Message | The bill has been presented by the NPP for the following reasons: Article 1: IVF should only be a last resort for couples to conceive a child. IVF should be legalised only insofar as to promote the interests of parents who intend to form families. Unregulated IVF is a recipe for disaster which will disregard life (as IVF involves the discarding of already fertilised embryos) and will encourage undeserving individuals to form unauthentic and warped "family" units. Article 2: This is to prevent any loophole in the law, where "patients" may ask for a prescription, only to use it for recreational purposes. Cannabis may also act as a gateway drug. Article 3: This is to prevent exploitation of vulnerable individuals might give "consent" for cash even though they may not be capable enough to make such an important decision. |

| Message | This bill is utter reactionary rubbish! For starters only allowing IVF to married couples is not only regressive, but also promotes the negative nuclear family unit. The banning of cannabis on the pretense of it being a so-called "gateway" drug is absolutely ludicrous. It is only a gateway drug when it is ILLEGAL, and that is only the case because it required the person to first go to a drug dealer to get, where they are then coerced into buying hardline drugs. Finally, organ donation is an incredibly vital part of healthcare and banning it will achieve nothing but an increase in organised crime and blackmarket activity! I call on all my comrades in the M-LP and all reasonable capitalists to vote against this disgusting piece of legislature! Theresa Rödl Metzistisch-Leonidistische Partei Spokesperson for Health |

| Message | It is unsurprising that the MLP would call anyone who opposes its views "reactionaries". That is a typical line thrown by misguided communists like yourself. The nuclear family unit is what keeps our society together. That unit is the basic unit of society. The MLP's views only undermine it, and will undermine the unity and overall security of our nation on the whole. Protecting the status of the family is a critical move that will stop the liberal cancer from metastasizing. Cannabis is a dangerous drug as it would lead to further addiction by patients who are supposed to get healed. An MLP run government would cause our nation to turn into a country of drunkards and druggies with no obligation to society. The prohibition of organ donation is a pre-emptive measure meant to protect the poor and vulnerable in the first place! Once again, the MLP has shown its utter foolishness in its inability to establish a logical position. The option of organ donation has caused many to suffer under the greed of irresponsible organ donation capitalists. However, I do wish to thank the MLP for giving the newly formed NPP a better chance at doing well at the next election: by creating its own demise. Shadow Secretary for Health, Gunter Reinefarth |
