Today's Food Programme on BBC Radio 4 starts by identifying the UN climate talks, and Asian Food Grabs from the West as the next 'PERIL ON THE HORIZON'.
Listen on the BBC iPlayer, if you dare ... I caught it on the good old analogue radio before leaping out the nearest airlock.
'The Price of Food'
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/b0183p6c12:32 Sunday, 11th December
Identifying at the outset, the UN and Asia as a source of planned food austerity about to hit UK highstreets as having already begun, apparently, mimicking the situation long-established already in the US; the BBC then quickly goes middle-of-the-road for the dumb sheep-like public in succeeding to continue the myth that Supermarket BOGOFF deals and the public's search for cheap food in times of Tumult and Price-hikes are the real contagion.
All food prices are going to jump dramatically the intellectuals interviewed alert us, whilst '
Food is Bad', they might as well conclude. No upbeat, optimistic message from the Bog Brooder Corporation then. Well what do you expect. It's Sunday, a day of rest, after all.
Got to get the public motivated for the week of feudalistic slave-like labour ahead!
