UK conservation groups supporting GMOs as a 'conservation tool' — despite risks & no proven benefits? Decisions with big implications for nature demand accountability & informed, equitable debate, not mute acquiescence to biotech narratives. Who voted? See: beyond-gm.org/iucn-votes-o...

New Genetic Technology Regulations, in force from today, ignore the truth about what precision-bred GMOs are. That's why we have initiated a judicial review. Every donation moves us closer to a food system built on honesty and transparency: www.crowdjustice.com/case/stop-hi...

1/ Definitely a #NotSoFunFact for the devolved nations that want to keep their food supply #GMO Free. You can read more about how the Genetic Technology Act has divided the country and what devolved nations can do about it here: beyond-gm.org/divided-king...

1/ Earlier this year, in the final days of the parliamentary debates on the new Genetic Technology Regulations, Ministers and Peers stood in Parliament and sold deregulation of genetically modified precision bred organisms (GM-PBOs) as an economic miracle...a🧵(link at the end)

In 2023 when new legislation came in, the UK Government estimated 1-2 field trials of #GMO 'precision bred' crops in England per year. Of the 33 trials that have since been conducted, 22 are still live. You pay for it, but you have no right to know about it #NotSoFunFact

Here's a Monday myth breaker. No safety testing required - or legally allowed! - for new 'precision bred' GMOs from November. If it sounds like a reckless corporate loophole, that's because it is! #NotSoFunFact

Unlabelled, untraceable gene-edited (so-called “precision-bred”) foods could start appearing on UK shelves after 13 Nov. We think that’s unacceptable — & we’re fighting back through a judicial review. Donate now & see more on our websites crowdjustice.com/case/stop-hidden-gmos #stophiddengmos

The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has endorsed the use of genetic engineering technologies as a conservation tool. We unpick what that means for #nature. Hint - it’s not good. beyond-gm.org/iucn-votes-o...

As the IUCN World Conservation Congress opens in Abu Dhabi, members face a pivotal choice between embracing genetic engineering as a conservation tool or pausing to apply the precautionary principle to these rapidly advancing technologies. abiggerconversation.org/protecting-nat…

Love trees? Hate the idea of genetically modified trees being quietly planted in the environment without environmental assessment or monitoring?! Support our legal challenge to #StopHidddenGMOs. DONATE today to help us fund our challenge www.crowdjustice.com/case/stop-hi...

There's no 'buffer zones' in the ocean. New regulations for genetically modified precision bred organisms allow environmental releases of experimental crops on land and in our oceans and waterways with no transparency. DONATE to our legal challenge today. www.crowdjustice.com/case/stop-hi...

Epic media fail. Every major UK media outlet covering GMO deregulation just repeated government talking points that precision bred GMOs are 'natural' & aren't GM at all. Zero critical journalism on blatant corporate spin. DONATE today to #StopHiddenGMOs crowdjustice.com/case/stop-hidden-gmos

In opposition, Labour was deeply critical of the lack of transparency around #GMO precision-bred organisms. In power, they have ushered in one of the least transparent & most liberal regimes in the world. #StopHiddenGMOs. DONATE to our legal fund now crowdjustice.com/case/stop-hidden-gmos

The UK government doesn't want you to know if you are eating or growing GMOs. But 8 in 10 in the UK think this is wrong & want to see all GMOs labelled. We're challenging the government to #StopHiddenGMOs. Support our legal action crowdfunder today crowdjustice.com/case/stop-hidden-gmos

Two futures. One grounded in real soil, real food & trust. The other in secrecy, synthetic food & deregulation. What kind of food system do you want? We’re taking the fight for #GMO transparency to court. Support our legal challenge to #StopHiddenGMOs at www.crowdjustice.com/case/stop-hi...

What's the government trying to hide by not labelling precision bred GMOs? We've started a legal action to ensure openness & traceability when it comes to GMOs in our food & environment. If you think transparency's a good idea, join the fight. DONATE today www.crowdjustice.com/case/stop-hi...

Consumers, farmers & food businesses want all GMOs to be subject to rigorous environmental & safety assessments, meaningful public consultation & full traceability ‘from field to fork'. Help us fight back. #StopHiddenGMOs DONATE to our legal fund now www.crowdjustice.com/case/stop-hi...

This will totally undermine the integrity of organic farming and certification as well as public trust. Please share and support if you can #StopHiddenGMOs

Beyond GM has sent a pre-action letter to Defra Secretary of State Steve Reed, putting the government on notice that we intend to pursue a judicial review of the Genetic Technology Regulations 2025. Read more and DONATE to our @CrowdJusticeUK funder NOW. crowdjustice.com/case/stop-hi...

1/ UK DefraSecretary of State @SteveReedMP told @CommonsEFRA this week that precision breeding will boost farm profits by increasing yields. But here's a problem: higher yields don't always mean higher profits. Let’s look at how this assumption clashes with economic reality... 🧵
