The point about companies owning rights to certain types of foods they have invented is an interesting one, specially if the old types of free range foods as it were die out. That could take - oh I dunno - a century? But those companies do exist and they're ready. I saw it in the X-Files I think so must be true.

Well if this is what we need to produce some decent super heroes I?m all for it. Decades of buggering about with nooclear bombs and toxic waste haven?t, despite what ream upon ream of comic book suggests.


Minotaur Man may be just what the world needs.


If we?re lucky we may even get some of those women in spandex with the improbable breasts.

I guess it depends on the stock it was cloned from


If a normal cow then more then likely nothing, you won't notice any difference in taste or quality (you may even think you have eaten it before in some weird deja-vu feeling)


however if it is from GM stock, then god help you !!!


My suggestion is just sit back and enjoy the deja-vu feeling

Jays - if we are going to ask that for EVERY headline! ;-)


I stand by by statement re: health risks. I doubt there are any of any significance


But introducing something to the food chain you can't control IS inherently worrying - not just from a health perspective (the Mail's angle) but about who controls it


Good food (as opposed to fuel) is also at risk - having every steak for the rest of my life EXACTLY the same or even homgienised partly makes me all kinds of bothered

      Crikey! This Doesn't Look Good For The Housing Secretary

      But at the same time those she sought for advice told her, very clearly, she needed to seek specialist advice which she did not do and carried on regardless. So I think the jury is out on whether this was a legitimate mistake or not.

      Thanks @Sephiroth I was thinking along the same lines (demonisation of Rayner by the media) and came across this article yesterday from Manchester Evening News.  It doesn't excuse her, but the title "Angela Rayner's real offence was being a working class woman in power" is self explanatory. https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/angela-rayners-real-offence-being-32422596 The crossing legs nonsense is particularly telling.

      Given her role, she pretty much had to go. I don't think she is an avid tax-schemer who deliberately set out to avoid tax - I do pretty much believe her story of multiple high-profile roles and looking after a child with needs. But many regular voters juggle demanding jobs and families and are afforded no leeway by taxman, so she totally should have known better But here we are - she was found to be negligent and now she has suffered teh consequence. To me that its the OPPOSITE of all parties/politicians as generally the ignore the whole thing (today we have Tice saying Farage's tax affairs are of no interest to voters for example) And it would be poor form to not acknowledge why she was targeted quite so viciously - we even have posters on here here saying "when I saw her taping on a boat that was the  end for me" - like the end of what?. Her gender and class were clear motivators for many people. Two wrongs don't make a right - but it';s interesting to see some posters on here give so many others a blank cheque. Many are planning to vote for Farage despite his dishonesty being 100x worse than Rayner PS - I don't think she will join Corbyn party - unlike him she is smart and unlike him she recognises that being In power means you can at least stand a chance of delivering results This. The Greens will have a rise in the polls on back of new leader but that is one hell of a coalition of NIMBY/YIMBYs As what would Reform do if in government to help with... well, anything?   Labour can at least point to decreasing waiting lists, lower immigration numbers, not having a different PM every 6 months - not that anyone is listening

      So what do people want?  More housing.  More affordable housing.  But not in my back yard. That applies to urban areas too.  Easy to criticise, but where are your answers?
