Cllrs Ros Kayes and Martin Ray collecting signatures on a petition to keep Dorset GM free
Bridport Councillors thank everyone who came to Bridport to support a local campaign to keep Dorset free from genetically-modified (GM) crops. Cllr Ros Kayes said “People came from as far away as Weymouth and Dorchester to sign. They said that it’s great that a small town like Bridport is leading the way in taking environmental issues seriously”. Cllr Martin Ray said “People queued up to send a message to the government that we want to keep our farms and fields pure and uncontaminated. Bridport’s Food Festival, Farmers’ Market and Street Market depend on the purity of our food”.
