DAVID SEYMOUR QUESTIONED OVER THE GENE TECHNOLOGY BILLS At an ACT Party meeting on 3 November, several women stood up to question David Seymour over ACTs support for the Gene Technology Bill and associated HSNO Amendment Bill reforms. At the meeting, one woman also challenged him over his previous derogatory comments about people opposing the Bill and GMO release. In a statement previously published on his own public media accounts, David said: “Any serious scientist will tell you, there is no danger, its all made up by the kind of scientifically illiterate greeny muppets who think the earth is flat and the sun is some greek god riding a chariot across the sky - the ACT party wholeheartedly supports liberalising New Zealands gene technology laws” Despite David and other ACT MPs making statements about the speculative economic benefits of gene technology, the ACT Party has yet to produce an economic assessment demonstrating what those benefits might actually mean for New Zealand farmers, exporters or everyday Kiwis. Yet the risks of contamination, impacts on conventional and organic farming, and the potential loss of New Zealands GE-free export advantage still deserve serious answers. Once released, we can never take it back. Thank you to the women who stood up and asked the questions. New Zealanders deserve answers! Vote wisely this election. KEEP GE IN THE LAB, NOT OUR FOOD. #nzpol #newzealand #election #NZPolitics

Hear the full conversation with Mark Patterson from @nzfirst on the GE Honesty YouTube channel - link in bio. We discuss the three interconnected bills, Gene Tech, HSNO and ACVM, and the potential implications for New Zealand's export economy and GE-free food production, and the growing intersection between our food and medicine. Thank you to NZ First for speaking up for the concerns of so many New Zealanders. KEEP GE IN THE LAB, NOT OUR FOOD. 🇳🇿✋ #nzpol #newzealand

Ask yourself, if farmers don’t want it. Consumers don’t want to eat it. Why is the New Zealand government spending $300-$400 million with AgriZeroNZ to get farmers to accept this insanity? #nzpol #netzero #newzealand

...AND WHOSE INTERESTS ARE WE PROTECTING? 🇳🇿 GE Honesty sat down with Hon. Mark Patterson from @nzfirst for an important conversation about the Gene Technology Bills, the future of New Zealand’s GE-free food production and the potential economic risks for our agricultural sector. As Minister for Rural Communities and Associate Minister of Agriculture and Regional Development, Mark brings more than 30 years of experience in the sheep and beef industry, giving him a valuable perspective on what these proposed changes could mean for New Zealand farmers and our primary industries. We discuss the legislation, the risks, and what is at stake for a country that has built so much of its international reputation on the quality and integrity of its food production. 🎙️ The full conversation is now live on YouTube - link in bio. KEEP GE IN THE LAB, NOT OUR FOOD.🇳🇿🤚

Because what’s happening here in New Zealand deserves far more attention than it’s getting..🇳🇿 Mel Gibson recorded this video exclusively for GE Honesty to help raise awareness of three major pieces of legislation that could have far-reaching implications for New Zealanders food, farming and environment. Here’s what you need to know: GENE TECHNOLOGY BILL – Opens the door to wider use of genetic engineering and GMOs / GE in NZ. HSNO AMENDMENT BILL – Changes the framework for regulating new organisms and hazardous substances (this is the back door for the Gene Tech Bill). ACVM AMENDMENT ACT – Changes the rules governing agricultural compounds and veterinary medicines, including new research and approval pathways, potentially including experimental GE Tech such as mRNA injections, methane inhibitors and dsRNA pesticides. Three different pieces of legislation connected regulatory changes. And some very important questions about the future of our food system. So what’s at stake? From potential health and safety risks and environmental contamination, to the future of GE-free farming and the premium reputation of NZ produce. These decisions have consequences that are incredibly difficult, if not impossible, to reverse once these biotechnologies are released into our food system and environment. New Zealanders deserve to know what’s happening and have a meaningful say. Especially when future generations will inherit the consequences, without having a voice. KEEP GE IN THE LAB, NOT OUR FOOD.🇳🇿🤚 Get informed. Share this video. Support the campaign. LINK IN BIO.

mRNA methane jabs and genetically modified grasses… all in the name of climate change. Has New Zealand learned nothing from ‘Bovaer’ in Denmark? 😳🐮 #newzealand #nzpol #denmark

Winston Peters addresses the Gene Tech Bills at Lower Hutt meeting. One of the few mainstream political parties actually making noise about this issue! Where are all the other parties speaking up? If the most parties supposedly oppose it, why are they not communicating it publicly? #nzpol #newzealand

Where are all the New Zealanders willing to stand up and be counted when it matters most? This was once a country which proudly stood against genetic modification of their food and environment… and for good reasons. But where are all those passionate kiwis now? 😔 #nzpol #newzealand
