London Human Rights Rally - 2nd July 2022: Part 5 - George Orwell's house

The road to George Orwell's house...

"GeneWatch UK has written a letter to Prof Susan Jebb, chair of the UK Food Standards Agency (FSA), about the Westminster government's Genetic Technology (Precision Breeding) Bill, warning her that the agency has a duty to maintain high standards of food and feed safety in the UK and that the Bill as it stands falls far short of those standards.

The letter states, "We note that the Bill includes provisions that may or may not provide traceability for exempt GMOs (those defined as Precision Bred Organisms, PBOs) in the food chain and may or may not require adverse effects on human and animal health and the environment to be avoided. We also note that the Bill does not require exempt GMOs to be labelled.""

“We work to roll back the surveillance state and protect the rights of everyone in the UK to be free from unfair intrusion.”

We believe that the Government does not give us our rights, as they are ours from birth and inalienable. Instead, the role of Government is to protect our inalienable rights from interference.
