Any electrician knows that Lego bricks are genderless, not 'heteronormative', because each can 'mate' with any other. Perhaps Science Museum staff should study to be electricians and actually make themselves useful.

Of course ... EU Parliamentarians have NO power in this area. Due to the Treaty Of Nice, the EU Commission asks the EU Council of Ministers for permission to negotiate intellectual property issues (eg: GMOs) at the WTO, a qualified majority of Ministers says ‘yes’ and off they go - no legal requirement to inform the public of content of negotiations, no legal requirement for EU Parliament to vote on EU-WTO GMO issues.

I would encourage people to write, email and phone the authorities, who are supposed to protect consumers from such behaviour by large corporations. ... read full story / add a comment
