But the most recent reports of GE crops show that yields and plant hardiness is reduced, while mutations have increased . For example the NZ Government has permitted a 200 fold increase in Roundup residues in GE soybeans. We have sent the evidence to all MPs. Farmers in other countries have also faced side effects including soil infertility, crop failures, reduced yields, consumer resistance, EU trade bans, seed recalls, and higher animal death rates. Parliamentarians are so caught up in party politics and trivial point scoring to attract media attention that they have failed to act on an issue that is of concern to most New Zealanders.
Parliament takes decisions in a stressed environment.
High crime rates and stress levels in the capital city create a stressed atmosphere which is not conducive to clear thinking and sensible decision making. The Natural Law Party holds that the government is an innocent mirror of the nation. The collective consciousness is the unseen governor of the nation. Measures to reduce crime and stress are essential to improve the efficiency and responsiveness of our Government. The practice of Transcendental Meditation and Yogic Flying has been demonstrated to reduce crime, accidents, and illness and increase prosperity and sensible Government decision making.
