Prof Norman Fenton and Dr Scott McLachlan were edited out of Channel 5's Lucy Letby documentary on Sunday night. Their crime? Expressing forbidden views online. It shows how pernicious cancel culture has become, says Dr Fenton.

There have been no published papers of possible
health effects of GM foods [on humans], but animal trials have given serious, serious cause for
concern. I have documented here the recent animal trials and they are very very worrying.

Member, Organic Trust Ltd. Member of the EPA’s GMO Advisory Committee
There is a complete democratic deficit in the treatment of GMOs in Ireland. There is only one route
for ordinary Irish people to get their voices heard. And only four of us — four individuals in Ireland
— have had a chance to use that route. They are Father Seán McDonagh, myself, David Jeffries,
and Eanna Ní Lamhna, as representatives of stakeholder organisations on the EPA.
Everybody else, on every committee that rules on GMOs in this country, has an interest in
furthering biotechnology and GMOs. They are all either university scientists with their research
funded by the biotechnology companies, or they are actually employees of biotechnology
companies themselves. This is something to be borne in mind when we see that the Food Safety
Authority says it’s OK, the Bioethics Committee of the Royal Irish Academy says it’s OK, the Inter-
Departmental Committee on GMOs says it’s OK. All of those are advised entirely or almost entirely
(there are some exceptions on the Bioethics Committee where the medical profession is also
involved), they are all advised by those with a financial stake in the biotechnology industry.

Ireland has never voted against GM crops out of about a dozen votes in the European Parliament
and the Council of Ministers. We have actually played a leading role in getting GM crops legalized.
the intellectual property rights agreement that gives corporations the right to patent GMO crops came in to the WTO under Peter Sutherland, and Irishman, the Europeanwide embargo against GM crops was terminated two weeksbefore he left office by David Byrne, as European Commissioner for Health and Consumer Affairs, to the great annoyance of the majority of EU member states who are against GM crops.
