this house wants to clone Britain's top footballers to improve the standard of play...

Human cloning involves copying a person’s DNA to create someone who is a clone of that person. Believers in human cloning think the technology will have enormous benefits, which may include cloning exceptional people like footballers who are valuable both financially and culturally.

Those who are against human cloning regard it as morally wrong and fear the technology will be abused if left in the wrong hands. They argue there is no evidence that a cloned human will have exactly the same skills and traits as its DNA donor.
