Paper View Episode 26 - Genetic Engineering

In this episode, I focus on examples of how the human form is being changed and genetically engineered and I talk about why this is happening.

Brexit may bring with it a lifting of food regulations. This could have implications for commercialisation of GM crops and GM food being grown in Britain. I talk about the bigger picture behind this story.

Transgender is in the news again. Autistic children are being prescribed sex change drugs by the NHS, as they feel their difficulty fitting in may be because they feel a different gender and doctors are afraid to challenge them! I cover this story and talk about why it's happening.

Genetically edited embryos!! Ever heard of them? They're on the horizon. This is another step towards synthetic human, which I've talked about many times before.

Young people are being prescribed anti-depressants to deal with depression and emotional problems, on a growing scale. This is typical of the medical system and I explain why.
