Pro-GM scientists should admit defeat and redirect their talents

When you have lost the argument, cry "foul". That is how 114 leading
scientists have responded - in an open letter to Tony Blair - to their
failure to win the great GM debate. During the summer, the government
undertook an economic and scientific review of genetic modification,
and held a public debate on the issue. Since then, the results of the
field-scale trials have also been published. The reviews, the public
opinion and the trials all reached the same conclusion: the time is
not ripe for the introduction of GM crops into UK farms. This is bad
news for those whose financial interests depend on such crops, the
introduction of which would foster further research on genetic
modification.
