A High Court legal challenge, led by Beyond GM, found that the UK Government failed to understand the significant consequences of removing transparency and labelling for gene-edited crops and foods. This is something which has the potential to affect everyone — farmers, businesses, consumers, and the organic sector. The judicial review fought by Beyond GM showed just how cavalier the UK Government’s approach to regulation and process really is. Much more information can be found on Beyond GM , and you can help with their legal fees at crowdjustice . ► Join UK Column Live every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1pm UK time or watch previous live recordings here ► [UK Column Website] Explore all our written and video content on the official UK Column website ► [Support UK Column] Please donate to support our independent journalism &amp; investigative journalism ► [UK Column YouTube] Please subscribe to the UK Column News YouTube channel for more alternative news and independent news Follow #UKColumn on: ► X ► Telegram ► Facebook ► Instagram","meta_description":"Following her appearance on UK Column News, Pat Thomas details the relentless and irresponsible pushing of genetically modified organisms into the food sy…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":3599,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/uk-column-news-315425/episodes/mythbusting-the-food-industry-uk-column-interviews/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/uk-column-news-315425/mythbusting-the-food-industry-uk-column-interviews.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
