Letter: Right decision

Published 9 January 2013

From Neal Battersby

Further to your look at the vote against mandatory labelling of genetically modified food in California (17 November 2012, p 28), nothing Californians eat is natural. The defeated proposal, known as Prop 37, was another attempt by practitioners of the politics of fear to codify a false dichotomy in our labelling regulations. RIP Prop 37.
