High Society

One of Prime Minister Tony Blair’s key advisers on genetically modified foods
has been nominated as the next president of the Royal Society. Robert May will
step down as the government’s chief scientific adviser in September and take up
his new role at Britain’s most prestigious scientific institution in November.
May is renowned for his denunciations of environmental pressure groups that
oppose GM foods, famously describing the leaders of the organic movement as
“aⲹٴDZ”.
