The Don't Destroy Research petition is now closed, many thanks to everyone who signed it. Below is the list of signatories and their comments. You can also see a collection of public support for the Rothamsted researchers' appeal here.

The planned direct action against the GM wheat experiment at Rothamsted did not happen on Sunday 27th May. The GM wheat trial is ongoing.

I fully support the research

Richard Price, Retired
We need this sort of carefully designed work to be done so that policies can be based on evidence rather than on prejudice.

Luddites haven't ever changed progress, but carefully administered science has changed many peoples lives for the better in the 3rd world, and yes I've seen it with my own eyes,where the next meal is not a decision, or choice ,but a hope ............

Why do Take Back The Flour hate the poor and hungry so much?

Arron Shutt, Research Scientist
Science is about evidence - not money, not people's agendas and not politics. Evidence based science will assist in humanities progress and solve the problems facing us. If you don't like the evidence, then the alternative is dark age of ignorance and a lack of wisdom.

Janet Fennah, Retired
Without Science research where would we be today?

Richard Evans, Student

Adam Potter, Teacher
I fully support the scientists and hope that one day people will listen and understand the scientific method and be able to engage in meaningful debate and discussion rather than resorting to outright vandalism.

Joseph Short, Teaching Assistant

Matt Kirshen, Comedian

Rosamund Pomeroy, Architect
Why do the protestors feel it is right to stop carefully constructed scientific experiments which may result in the world's poorest nations being better able to feed themselves? Rothamsted has a proud heritage in Harpenden - leave it alone.
