| Message | We do not like article 1 and we would like a stronger article 2 but the JCP and the CFPJ are against all forms of free health care. |
| Date | 10:38:09, March 29, 2006 CET | From | Libertarian-Socialist Coalition | To | Debating the Healthcare bill 2206 |
| Message | Both these articles are issues that our party has tried to push, but has repeatedly been shot down by the JCP. Better to take a stand and get shot down as a martyr than follow the crowd, I guess. |
