Scientific research is most important, this destruction is unbelievable and should never happen. How can we ever advance with research of this kind?
Pietro Monsurrò, Researcher
Research should be defended against fascist tactics in the name of an intollerant ideology.

Why are the extremists so happy to destroy research which may have a really positive impact on the use of harmful pesticides on our crops? I think it's disgraceful and they can have absolutely no claim to be doing whats best in any way shape or form if this raid goes ahead. Perhaps if they engaged and learnt about the science they might something.
