On 21st January Paul Rylott - top GM scientist at Bayer Cropscience delivered a stirring speech on how to manage consumer response to biotechnology, at a conference on Managing and Predicting Crisis in the Food Industry. As he took his place in the queue for his buffet dinner a polite call of "Mr Rylott?" brought him face to face with a chocolate fudge cake (skipped and stale) covered with the sweaty rotting whipped cream and the shout "That's for GM!" before the assaulting party fled. Some leaflets were given out to the surprised and immobilized rowd and all those protesting left before the cops arrived.

This is part of a national UK campaign against Bayer and against GM commercialization. Actions taken place have included junk mailing, sabotage including lock glueing, spraypainting, window breaking, golf courses destroyed , office occupations, noise demonstrations and trespasses.

The biotech baking brigade stated: "GM Technology is the latest onslaught of a bland and tedious industrial technological society against the planet. We are against monoculture and for biodiversity, against the domestication of people and land, and for the wild. There is no neutral ground: everyone is called upon to choose their side. Whenever They strike - be they government, corporations or greenwash quangos - we will strike back. They have declared war on us and our planet: we will answer it."

CommuniquÈ from the Biotic Baking Brigade- NYC cell

January 20, 2004
Contact: bbb_nyc@yahoo.com
NY, NY: 12:00PM

Agents of the Biotic Baking Brigade-NYC cell have pied Operation Rescue founder Randall Terry who was speaking on behalf of his new anti-abortion group, the Society for Truth and Justice.

See pictures

The anti-choice group was holding a meek protest and press conference outside Planned Parenthood's Manhattan office (corner of Mott and Bleecker Streets). Agent Cheesecake served up an organic
chocolate cream pie while Terry was pontificating to the local media about the evils of homosexuality and women's right to control their own bodies. The pie slinging took place in front of a counter-protest and an absentminded and slow witted 'community affairs' officer of the New York Police Department. In a diverse and open-minded city like NYC, there is no place for the backward views of groups like the
Society for Truth and Justice.

This action is dedicated to all those nameless and faceless people who have risked their lives to defend a woman's right to choose worldwide.

[Editor's Note: this is the second pieing of
Randall Terry. The first occurred in the early
nineties, performed by the Great American Pieman
Aron Kay]
