on Sunday morning 16th November in central London.
Speaking at the end of the Friends of the Earth demonstration in London on Monday 13th October, former minister Michael Meacher said that that they were winning the argument on GM. Mr Meacher cited the Government's economic report and scientific review on GM, both of which raised serious concerns about the technology. And he said that the recent public debate had shown that people were overwhelmingly opposed to GM crops.
He added: "This is the freedom movement in our country now. There is no more basic human right of people than to decide what food they are going to eat. I think we are well on the way to winning."
In a message to Mr Blair, he added: "You have told us Tony that you are listening. What we want to know is have you heard?"
