Hey, chaps. Nigel wants intensively-reared Yankee chicken that would be too dangerous to eat were it not for the fact that it had to be washed in chlorine. Nigel doesn't mind GM crops that have been bred to resist pesticides so that farmers can use the latter with gay abandon and kill all the bees. Groovy!
Christ, I bet Nigel has his GM chlorinated chicken with Smash and GM baked beans for Sunday lunch. Yum!
How are you on global warming, the moon landings and Kennedy's assassination, Nige?
You're not real, are you, Nigel?

Hey, folks.
Steve Shaw is reading a hell of a lot into what I say which isn't actually there.
"Intensively reared chicken" We have that too. the difference is in how it is cleaned.
"GM crops" - pesticide resistance is not the sole reason for these.
"global warming, the moon landings and Kennedy's assassination," have not, as yet, been mentioned in this discussion, except for the introduction now by Steve Shaw.

My comments were about "Import tariffs". Clearly Steve Shaw does not understand these, and will try to divert the discussion to avoid accepting that he has no real understanding of the subject.
So much for a "well educated scientist".
