More on Prince Charles' GM outburst:

Prince Charles has demanded a ban on genetically modified crops after the latest attempt on his life by an enormous piece of fruit.

Launching his most outspoken attack so far on GM food, the heir to the throne said a giant pineapple has already tried to crush him to death three times since the beginning of May…

In the last three years Prince Charles claims to have been stalked by a genetically modified potato, a bunch of grapes and a two tonne strawberry in a wig.

"The bunch of grapes sent my darling wife the most repulsive letters filled with bizarre sexual innuendo, while the police told me the strawberry was armed."

He added: "I really do not understand this fascination with GM foods when Waitrose is doing a very nice Duchy Originals beetroot and dill organic soup for just £2.89."

    We bought our first Duchy Originals product recently. It was very good. Like many another firm, I suppose, even if the gaffer is bonkers, the firm may yet function in spite of him.

    The Tampon Prince may be daft but on this issue he’s dead right. Here in Canada Monsanto has contaminated virtually all natural canola varieties with Round-Up Ready canola genes. Farmers who never bought into Monsanto’s program, and who saved their own seeds from season to season, have been legally harassed by Monsanto in an effort to cow them into submission.

    That’s not really an anti-GM point, though, is it, Dan? Surely a competent government (pause for cynical laughter) should be capable of sorting out laws to stop that sort of abuse.

    By the way, I’ve remembered what His Nibs’s product was – the best Bakewell tart we’ve ever had.
