Whats really happening is that these politicians who voted “NO” are now human rights abusers!

They are abusing the medical rights of those people by preventing access to those who need it for medicinal purposes.

Medical Ethics!

Ethics!

I say to these people where are your “ethics” on this?

You want to see these people suffer?

The No voters are abusing these people!

and this

On Friday, federal health minister Greg Hunt lashed the “dangerous” plan and said it would have opened the floodgates for other drugs, besides cannabis, to come into the country.

“It would have opened the way for personal importation through our airports of hashish and other products that are unsafe, unregulated and even deadly,” Hunt said in a release.

“The role of the Therapeutic Goods Administration is to have oversight of medicines to ensure quality and safety. Labor voted to remove this safeguard — which had been place with bipartisan support… would have undermined the local, regulated and safe medicinal cannabis industry that is starting to develop.”

You specify which cannabis products are allowed into the country and which are not!

How can that be undermining?

Greg Hunt is an idiot!

It is so disappointing that these politicians couldn’t put the needs of terminally ill patients above political games.

I guess that another way to look at this.

Those who voted Yes have a much higher intelligence than those who voted No.

One Nation and NXT both voted No.
