Tony Bliar and his government (now they've got rid of Michael Meacher) are keen to convince we uneducated masses of the benefits of GM technology. The science upon which this opinion is based is every bit as dodgy as Alastair Campbell's dossier on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction. He is being advised by the likes of Lord Sainbury, who donates millions to "New" Labour and who is a heavy investor in bio technology. Naturally, with Lord Sainsbury being a government minister, his advice to Bliar (to introduce GM crops into Britain) is absolutely impartial.
