I'm quite prepared to admit that the Potato Council is less imaginative than it could be in how it promotes its product, but that fact that I might, with you, disagree with something it says isn't enough for me to think they are spreading mendacious scare stories when they are likely to be better informed than me - probably better informed even than Michael - about the science, and that I do know that potato blight is a persistent threat to the crop. It's why the industry and government finance a fair bit of research into it.
