Letter: Why must we listen to public views on GM? (2)

Published 1 August 2018

From Kevin Privett, Llandough, Glamorgan, UK

I was interested to read about how the GM debate may turn into the gene-editing debate (7 July, p 22). Has anyone done any research asking people who are against gene-edited foods whether or not they are also against using gene editing in treatments for, say, cancer?
