We are not a subsistence culture. We do not need to grow GM crops in the
UK in order to feed ourselves, or to prevent economic collapse.

So, why not be cautious, in the way that so many previous introducers of
other plant varieties have not been? Late is better than never.

But we produce newly genetically modified potatoes every year or so and have
done so since time immemorial..

My neighbour even won a large prize for doing this.
