Only just found this out …
Back-to-the-land advocate John Seymour, 90, the English-born writer and anti-GM activist died in Wales last month. Known since the 1970s for his self-sufficiency books - which sold in vast numbers - he spearheaded the Irish protest movement against GM crops in 1999, landing himself in court as one of the famous “Arthurstown Seven”.
“Never be afraid of being called a crank,” he once famously said. “Look up crank in the dictionary. It’s defined as a useful object that starts revolutions.” More: GM Watch Newsletter, 13th October.
