15. I cannot tell you how frustrating it has been, banging my head against this brick wall for so long. Despairing of better policy, I've now started stockpiling food. Though small compensation, it's good to know that industry insiders share my frustrations. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Britain’s food supply is precarious – and Trump’s chaos is spreading. I have a plan. Do you? | George Monbiot
I’ve started a stockpile, but that isn’t the answer. If crisis strikes, the government needs a strategy to protect us all, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

So it needs a far-reaching multi-factor plan to re-build trust and win consent for a new political programme. It’s not enough to expose propaganda and lies – though it’s a big part of it – but offer actual change & show there is commitment to delivering it. #Starmer is doing the opposite right now.

So RFK Jr’s promise to ‘make diets healthy again', ask how this sits with a government which is anti-regulation, anti-science, and pro-business (and by extension Big Food). Take each idea on its own merits. Expose the interests. Say what should be done.
