Dear Home Office Science Advisory Committee,

A sickening experiment conducted on animals:
1. For what gain.
2. Is British Tax payers money funding this?

Exposed to a Deadly Nerve Agent, Which Caused Tremors
Testing the Efficacy of Oxime HI-6 Dimethanesulphonate Against Nerve Agents
In a disturbing experiment conducted in the UK, the Ministry of Defence exposed guinea pigs to the deadly nerve agent Sarin. The guinea pigs suffered from tremors, excessive salivation, and hypothermia. Even if they survived the initial exposure, they were killed within 24 hours.

I look forward to a meaningful explanation of why you call this science.

Yours faithfully,
Helen Taylor
