Strongly agree

Yes

The Liberal Democrat Party in the UK has historically supported policies that promote scientific research and innovation, especially when it comes to healthcare and environmental sustainability. They have advocated for increased funding in healthcare and research, emphasizing the importance of science and technology in solving major challenges. Their support for genetic engineering for disease prevention and treatment would likely align with their broader goals of improving healthcare outcomes and investing in future technologies. However, their score is not a full 5 due to their cautious approach towards ethical considerations and public consultation on matters of scientific advancement.

Strongly disagree

No

The Liberal Democrat Party is unlikely to oppose government funding for research into genetic engineering for disease prevention and treatment, given their general support for scientific research and innovation in healthcare. Their policies have often emphasized the importance of advancing medical research and technology to improve health outcomes. Opposition to such funding would contradict their established stance on healthcare innovation and their advocacy for evidence-based policies to tackle health issues. However, a slight possibility of opposition could arise from ethical, environmental, or social concerns, which the party might consider in specific contexts.
