-After Dr [[Arpad Pusztai]] went public with his doubts about the safety of genetically modified (GM) foods, followed by the publication in 1999 of the British Medical Association report calling for an indefinite moratorium on GM crops, no less than four reports on biotechnology were rushed out in the space of just two days. All trumpeted the safety of GM foods and crops, and all condemned Pusztai's research, which suggested the opposite. The first report was by the government's chief scientific advisor, Robert May, and its chief medical advisor, Prof [[Liam Donaldson]] (the May/Donaldson report). The others were from the House of Commons Science and Technology Committee; the [[Royal Society]], of which may was then a leading Fellow; and the [[Nuffield Council on Bioethics]] report.

 These were four reports containing one theme and this conveniently timed package enabled Blair's then 'Cabinet Enforcer', Dr [[Jack Cunningham]], to announce that Dr Pusztai's work had been 'comprehensively discredited.' Sir Robert May added that Dr Pusztai was guilty of 'violating every canon of scientific rectitude' by speaking publicly about his results before the paper had been peer reviewed and published.
