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

      Checking refs of these builders

      By camberwell57 · Posted

      Hi - I posted a request for some help with a stuck door and possible leaky roof. I had responses from Lukasz at Look_as.com and Pawel at Sublime Builders. I don't see any/many reviews - has anyone used either person?  Could use a recommendation rather then just being contact by the tradespeople... Many Thanks

      Will Mandelson be accepted across the pond.

      By malumbu · Posted

      I'm a bit worried by your sudden involvement on this Forum.  The former Prince Andrew is now Andrew Mountbatten Windsor Mountbatten in an anglicisation of Von Battenburg adopted by that branch of our Royal Family in 1917 due to anti-German sentiment. Another anglicisation could be simply Battenburg as in the checker board cake.  So I surmise that your are Andrew Battenburg, aka Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and that you have infiltrated social media so that the country can put the emphasis on Mandelson rather than yourself.  Bit of a failure. I don't expect an answer from police custody.

      John Marx (Top Marx Kitchens): highly recommended kitchen fitter

      By enya · Posted

      We had John fit our PLYKEA kitchen (IKEA cabinets with custom doors) and would happily recommend him and Gabi to anyone. Gabi handled all communication and was brilliant throughout — responsive and happy to answer questions however detailed. John is meticulous, cares about the small details, and was a pleasure to have in the house. The carpentry required for the custom doors was done to a high standard, and he even refinished the plumbing under the sink to sit better with the new cabinets — a small touch that made a real difference. They were happy to return and tie up a few things that couldn't be finished in the time, which we appreciated. No hesitations recommending them.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By Suggsy · Posted

      Not sure about that. Rockets seems to have (rightly in my view) identified two key motivating elements in Mcash's defection: anger at his previous (arguably shabby) treatment and a (linked) desire to trash the Labour party, nationally and locally. The defection, timed for maximum damage, combined with the invective and moral exhibitionism of his statement counts as rather more than a "hissy fit".  I would add a third motivation of political ambition: it's not inconceivable that he has his eye on the Dulwich & West Norwood seat which is predicted to go Green.  James Barber was indulging in typical LibDem sleight of hand, claiming that Blair introduced austerity to *councils* before the coalition. This is a kind of sixth form debating point. From 1997-1999 Labour broadly stuck to Tory spending totals, meaning there was limited growth in departmental spending, including local govt grants. However local government funding rose substantially in the Noughties, especially in education and social care. It is a matter of record that real-terms local authority spending increased in the Blair / Brown years overall. So he's manifestly wrong (or only right if the focus is on 1997-1999, which would be a bizarre focus and one he didn't include in his claim) but he wasn't claiming Blair introduced austerity more widely.
