On the news last night they were banging on about there being a worldwide food shortage due to an increased demand by developing nations.

So why are they still sending bags of grain to the darkies in Africa if we're short of it ourselves? sctatchinghead

but we arent short of it though.

Its just more scaremongering so that suppliers can put prices up, and then the government can tax us more.

Obvious innit?


Innit.

Tesco's have loads of it.

Food shortage.dont think so.

Farms around Europe are paid not to grow crops!
75% of the EU budget is spent on paying them to do nothing- or very little- with their land. Not much chance of us starving.
