Trans 'allyship' was supposed to lead us all pliantly to accept that men can become women. Now that has failed, the velvet gloves are off to reveal iron fists. But violent threats won't work either, says Caroline Ffiske.

GM potatoes planted - Legal appeal system being ‘ignored by Teagasc’

category national | environment | news report author Thursday August 30, 2012 21:12author by Dave M Report this post to the editors

Teagasc has confirmed that it has already planted out Genetically Modified potatoes at its site in Co. Carlow – despite a period for legal challenges running to 25th October. The three month window opened after the trial received approval from the EPA in July.

A low-key statement on the Teagasc site, posted once the potatoes were in the ground, states that a 10 metre by 10 metre plot was planted up on Monday. No press release was issued.

Meanwhile, Stella Coffey, who began a legal challenge on 13 August, has written to the Minister and Teagasc calling for them “to make public undertakings that . . (planted GM potatoes) be removed immediately until my Aarhus Access to Justice Rights as an EU citizen in Ireland, in challenging the EPA administrative decision of 25 July 2012, have been fully resolved”.
