Your old mate reckons the anti-GE nutters at GE Free NZ can’t help flogging their dead horse theme about the evils of genetic modification.
In their latest scare tactic, GE Free NZ tried to claim that a recent spate of cow sickness and some deaths was due to genetic modification. However, as Feds president – and former pro GE lobby spokesman in a previous life – William Rolleston rightly pointed out, it was more likely to have been caused by high sugar content in the fodder beet they had been eating. The Hound suggests the anti-GE lobby do themselves no favours when they make up crazy conspiracy theories like this to justify their stance.
