It describes itself as a charity that provides information but in 2021-22 they took £687,060 in donations from these corporate members…

The price others pay for our next-day deliveries spectator.co.uk/article/the-pr… via The Spectator. Loved this piece. Like with our food systems, big business would prefer us not to look at the externalities…but it’s time we started to demand that we must, even at the cost of convenience.

Fascinating to see how strong public sentiment is, across race, gender, pay & political creed, for govt action to improve our food system and provide better, greener food for everyone AND make the polluter pay…

Dear Avanti West Coast I have just travelled on the 12.55 back from working in Manchester. Your man at the gate let me on the train but it was not until just before Euston that Nicola, your train manager, told me that I was on the wrong train, in fact I had a 13.55 ticket…

I was not aware I was in the wrong train; the ticket man in Manchester did not tell me. Despite this Nicola informed me I was travelling illegally and that I would have to pay for a second ticket! So now the ticket below has been paid for plus a second, extremely expensive one.

Nicola came round late Avanti West Coast so I was unable to get off the train to board the correct one, even with a correct ticket. It leaves an unpleasant taste in the mouth that as a company you have profited from a genuine mistake and taken a double payment for one trip.

What is fascinating is that when people know the facts they are almost unanimous in calling for action from the government. So why does the government refuse to act? ALASTAIR CAMPBELL Rory Stewart

Politicians are getting us all wrong - Food, Farming and Countryside Commission - a most excellent piece on why politicians are missing a trick when it comes to food policy - and how most of us all want the same things from it… ffcc.co.uk/conversations/…

I was not allowed to vote in this category but obviously completely delighted that such a brilliant charity was recognised for the work they are doing in making it totally possible, and affordable, to feed children proper, delicious, real food at school 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

The food these women make looked mouth-watering but it was their mission to give women in their community a voice and change lives that really inspired me. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

The Alexandra Rose Charity gives people on low incomes vouchers to spend on fresh fruit and veg in farmers markets giving them access to better food and whole ingredients, benefiting them, the farmers and the natural world the farmers on these smaller farms are protecting ✨✨✨

1. Thanks to politicians like Suella Braverman MP and Home Office my nanny is being deported tomorrow. She has the right papers, she is registered and paying tax PLUS she has a ticket home to Columbia on 20th Dec for Christmas (and not coming back for 4 months…)…

2. Sadly the fact that we want to bring our children up speaking Spanish and learning about different cultures is not relevant. Nor that this very cultured, educated girl suddenly has to pay for somewhere to live in Europe for 2 weeks before her flight leaves.

3. The inhumanity of it appalls & shames me. Home Office said they can’t process her papers for her to stay just 2 more weeks because they are short-staffed. This is just 1 story. So many lives being ruined because of incompetence. Staff up and show some decency Rishi Sunak

Great piece in Financial Times by camilla cavendish outlining the cost to societies, govts and people when countries turn blind eyes to our increasingly appalling diets. Well worth a read. ft.com/content/eabb3d…
