    Just written a press release about some of my research - which shows that genes from American Gooseberries are set contaminate our native gooseberry populations with possable serious ecological effects.

    Its a daft story that just might have legs - or it might disappear without trace. Watch this space - you heard it here first - but who gives?

    Are you threatening the nation in a mad professor kind of way?

    Whats so bad about these American gooseberries?

    Are they woefully inadequate in terms of foreign policy?

    Do they drive enormous and vastly inefficient trucks?

    Are they too fat?

    No taste - thick skins and spineless

    Ok I lied about the spines.

    Plus our native invertebrates dont thrive on them so well.

    >native invertebrates

    Now they are spineless, never trust one to be on your side in a fight, very much like the Yanks.
