It has been a truly rough week for Monsanto. After being slammed with a lawsuit by concerned farmers over their GMO crops and thrown out by China, now the corrupt juggernaut is being thrown out of the United Kingdom. In an unprecedented announcement, Monsanto announced a major departure from the UK due to “intense opposition” to genetically modified foods from activists.
As a result, the company is now closing its genetically modified
wheat growing operation based in Cambridge. Monsanto officials even went
on record stating that the move was a result of opposition against their own ‘Frankenstein Foods’.
Furthermore, the company is even looking to liquidate their GMO crop facilities based in Germany, France, and the Czech Republic.
Monsanto is making a run for it, and food good reason. Nations have
been openly voicing their opposition against the biotech mammoth, with
officials and individuals nationwide taking a stand. France is one of
many nations to call out Monsanto’s crimes, citing health concerns among the many reasons to reject Monsanto’s GMO crops.
