European farmers will be allowed to use Glyphosate, despite calls for it to be banned, following a report from the World Health Organisation that warned it probably causes cancer. The European Commission said 18 countries had backed the use of the weedkiller, with nine member nations voting against it and one abstaining. It has been given a green light for five years. German MEP Sven Giegold tells us it is a setback for the environment and citizens. (Picture: A farmer in France spreads fertilizer. AFP/Getty Images.)
