In fact we have every right to ‘crawl all over it’ to use a colloquialism. Given the issues that science is dealing with, it’s importance to people’s lives and the economy, and it’s use of taxpayer money, science has no right to be left alone by politicians or the public for that matter. He talks a lot about the Government’s immigration restrictions – there was a letter in The Times last week – and rightly highlights that they are hurting science.īut today he also makes what I think is an unreasonable if not naive call for science and politics to be separated from one another. Last week he was in the Daily Telegraph and claimed that the ‘Crick’ institute was going to be the mothership of all inventions – in every sense of the word. Sir Paul Nurse, President of the Royal Society and head of he Sir Francis Crick Institute, is doing a round of media interviews at the moment.
