Sir,
It didn’t take very long for the imbeciles that run the UK government to begin to undermine what was agreed under the terms of Brexit!
Take the latest stance from the farmer-friendly George Eustice, who has proclaimed that the UK Gov is opening the floodgates to promote the use of GM and Gene Editing, the ruse in his political speech that the UK must provide the platform to modify plants to feed Africa.
I wonder why they left them starving for so long?
With this gesture, if taken up, say goodbye to all agriculture exports to the EU, as most plants enter into a food and drink chain. It will wipe out the Whisky, the beef and sheep, only to benefit the Irish producers.
Who ever said that your worst enemy was one of your own kind, because he was spot on – step forward George Eustice.
Angus A Macdonald,
Balivanich,
