G Brown tells us to stop wasting food...

[dark86]

all part of the "food shortage so now more expensive act all to fuel the planned economic crisis."

[daveashe]

what, that fat B is asking us to stop wasting food? he must eat it by the tonload!

[beldazar]

Yes I just saw that bit on the news, what a bloody cheek! I bet they eat really expensive a la carte food, cant see them ever eating egg and chips! Oh it makes me so angry! They earn so much more money than the rest of society!!!
Anyeway, they have sold their souls so I shouldnt be annoyed.....

[illuminotti]

What about bullimic prescott?? he wastes every meal!!

[element]

It is good not to waste food. Who cares about that guy, let's look at ourself, many waste food!!

[homebrew1973]

It simply beggars belief that cheeky twats like him say that when they feast like royalty and allow what`s left over to go to waste :mad:

[kweli]

It is good not to waste food. Who cares about that guy, let's look at ourself, many waste food!!

I agree, it's not good to waste food. But exactly who are the culprits? I'm certain it's not those on low incomes that can barely afford to buy the food, never mind waste it. This kind of bullshit propaganda adds insult to injury for those that are already struggling.

Save up all your leftovers to pelt GB with, if he comes to your town.

[upsetbrit]

My family can't afford expensive food, so the food we do get tastes like shit and is not nutritious.
I like to see that fat sod live off budget brands and stuff which is reduced because it's about to pass its date.

[skyline]

I would suggest the only people that really waste food are the richer people in society.Average Joe will buy food that they need and any waste is off a dinner plate.If Gordon Brown was a true leader not that such a person exists in modern society he would concern himself with creating a society where people are equal and wealth is shared amoungst the many and not through shady business dealings in smokey masonic lounge's.I was brought up not to waste food and anyone with a small amount of grey matter would do the same

The people in power who give themselves massive pay compared to what a average person earns and then pay themselves expences so they can be near their place of work are without doubt scum and lacking in any moral value.

Brown is a fat cold cut sweating tin of spam who is well past its sell by date and i wouldnt piss on his teeth if his mouth was on fire

[beldazar]

plus the fact that the gov has stopped allowing pigswill, locked bins at supermarkets to prevent those living off the streets from eating it, introduced quotas and excess goes down the drain, introduced best before dates that are unnecessary, (how many people who must bin stuff that is perfectly edible when it reaches over the BB date?)
Introduced pathetic shape standards for bananas, tomatoes and who knows what else!!!
Chuck away food at supermarkets rather than give it free to the workforce.
Grrr, Im still mad!

[pduffy4]

this is so they can start rationing food! dirty bastards!:mad:

'course this won't affect the food intake of Brown and his bastard friends and Queenie.

I made myself pork chinese ribs last night and eat it all up so no waste there.:p

I used to eat from them. when my mum was working at Sainsbury's she told me about all the waste. That came in handy....uuummm biscuits and cake. And i had a cat to contend with, he used to get the milky and yougert stuff and of course meat. He ued to come to me and say ello mate. He new i was homeless. He was too.

Together in the same moment. As one. He looked at me with acknowledgement.

[disorder2k8]

Dont forget to save up all your rotton food and eggs, not because its good for the environment, but to have something to pelt the cocky f**ker with

I made myself pork chinese ribs last night and eat it all up so no waste there

Psst.. Ribs and chops are from the same section pf the body except one is sliced in a way as to totally get rid of all the meat and is a complete and total rip off... guess which one!


.. introduced best before dates that are unnecessary, (how many people who must bin stuff that is perfectly edible when it reaches over the BB date?..

Tell me about it!. I work at Iceland stores and it makes me shiver when they throw out a box of eggs just because one is cracked.. A total joke. I have a go at people all the time about it and I tell them to 'look' at the reason they're are going to get fucked.

Subsequently. I am also collecting veg seeds, I just got some onions in will try and get more.

[homebrew1973]

I wonder if they`ll prosecute parents of school children if their quota of leftover dinners exceeds a certain amount like what they`re going to do regarding rubbish. When I was at school (back then the dinners were crap) at least it was fed to pigs and that was it.

Such politicians and people really do make me want to puke (perhaps you may agree) so why don`t we save said puke and put it into those little water bomb balloon things to throw at them? Can`t say we`re wasting food then ;-)

good point about the supermarkets, why dont they at least offer it to local homeless shelters so as not to waste it , that wouldn't encourage more people to become homeless for free food so why the agenda .A couple who worked for the local Sainsbury's here got sacked for helping themselves to food thrown out like that .No one cares who eats it lots of people would be too snobby or appalled by the idea of eating from a garbage skip. So they shouldn't complain , although i bet some have an opinion , good upstanding tax paying types .The sell by date is a scam to make you purchase more food anyway .We do live in a wastefull society ,something people will probably have a long time to regret if we do have food shortages ever .Everything is throw away now even human life so why should food be any different .It would be good to get statistics fro supermarkets about how much they bin each week .Its not just food clothes shoes boots etc get the same treatment slashed and dumped so no one can use them .:mad:

'Come on children, finish your plateful of GM food or there'll be trouble.'

For anyone who's worked in a big store or supermarket -
is there any truth that the food that's chucked out round the back has some sort of poison added to it?
Maybe to stop rats, or maybe to stop homeless folks getting to it?

[beldazar]

Hi 2013, my ex used to work down at the local zoo, they used to get leftover food from the supermarkets for a small fee, a lot was unsuitable for animals, potatoes, pastries, avocado's etc...so he would bring some home, (first time I had eaten an avocado!!!)
It was absolutely fine! Thats when I got suspicious as to why the staff didnt get the food, they get a measly 10% discount and if they dont buy, out it goes!
This is disgusting news from the gov, how dare they!
Its considered 'etiquette' among the upper classes to leave food on their plates!
We are getting targetted all the time! Its the same with our waste, at a campsite down from where I live, there are no recycling facilities and the amount of waste is incredible! Why???
Oh these elitist freemasons may think they are onto a winner right now, but just wait and see.............

[homebrew1973]

good point about the supermarkets, why dont they at least offer it to local homeless shelters so as not to waste it

They used to actually, I remember 10 years ago when a homeless charity helped me get a flat they`d have drop-in sessions and they`d hand out tinned and dried food given by supermarkets. And I`ve seen people come out of the local Salvation Army with bags of donated tinned food so it`s not all doom and gloom :)

[izzy]

Save up all your leftovers to pelt GB with, if he comes to your town.

yea brilliant idea !:D

[thetruthseeker]

Exactly, I am fairly new to David's work but can see so clearly how the media is manipulating how we think, two stories on the news tonight which are classic problem,reaction solution. The first regarding wasting food and the fact GB says wasted food gives off gases causing global warming!! come on what do farmers have to use to grow their crops!! they use material that has rotted naturally what they gonna do ban that, we all give off gases what we going to do ban every gas emitting animal on the planet from doing so, it's all bollocks. Am I the only one as tragic as it is that thinks this story has been constantly bombarded at us?-Madelaine The second article is about madelaine,problem- missing children,reaction oh no what can be done,in the future we must micro-chip them they will be saying that soon, you will know where they are, it's almost laughable now I see the technique.

[2013]

saw an article about it in mirror today quiet a big feature the fuckers , it really annoyed me , i know plenty of people who have lived in vehicles and been homeless over the years who used to rely on this food only to be treated like criminals for taking something that was being thrown away .Insane in the extreme .Maybe we should start a campaign and bombard the supermarkets with emails complaining against the practice .If only people all pulled together a good boycott hit them where it hurt most in profit .Maybe more people would protest as most are now aware of the higher price of living. If the food is not selling reduce the prices more dont just offer few items at the end of the day , even at a greatly reduced price it would benefit them to sell it rather than bin it surely .Perhaps they have friends in high places who write off the cost for them though.I cant seriously see the majority of people hanging around waiting for the bulk items to be reduced before shelf restocking takes place .some people would die to be seen rummaging lol . plus people have certain shopping times to stick to .But no of this is the point though is it its all about creating scarcity and fear :(

Food shortages and the need to double African production may dominate the G8 summit but even as they discussed the problems of the developing world yesterday, the leaders of the world’s richest nations, joined by several African leaders, ate course after course of fine food.

In a questionable public relations move, the summit’s Japanese organisers proudly displayed to the press the menus for a sumptuous eight-course banquet laid on last night and a five-course lunch a few hours earlier.

The leaders tucked into truffle soup and crab as they discussed Zimbabwe and aid to Africa’s poorest people. The evening feast of 19 separate dishes included diced fatty flesh of tuna fish and milk-fed lamb with aromatic herbs. Tomorrow, after working up an appetite discussing soaring food prices, the leaders will enjoy a £200 dinner of giant crab, £50-a-kilogram langoustine and sweet clover ice cream, prepared by Michel Bras, a Michelin three-star French chef.

It is all in keeping with a summit that has cost a total of 60 billion yen (£283 million) - enough to have bought 100 million mosquito nets to save Africans from catching malaria - and that frequently seems at odds with the Japanese hosts’ professed theme of ecology and environmentalism.

* Brown in G8 meeting with Medvedev

The International Media Centre, which will be dismantled after the summit, was purpose-built at a cost of £24 million: a total of £8 million a day.

Fibreoptic cables for the press centre have cost a further £43 million. The Japanese Government has completely refurbished the rooms, lawns and carpets of the Windsor Hotel, where the leaders are meeting, and resurfaced much of the perfectly serviceable 100km (60mile) road to the airport.

The public have been kept at least 30 miles from the hotel, which is perched on the top of a mountain overlooking a beautiful volcanic lake. It is protected by 20,000 police officers, air force planes fly regular patrols and coastguard and naval ships are on standby in the nearby bay.

Chefs have been given carte blanche to spend as much as they like on their menus, which yesterday had the theme of Hokkaido, Blessings of the Earth and the Sea, after the northernmost Japanese island where the summit is being held.

A menu issued yesterday proudly boasted that the chefs “know everything that there is to know about food in Hokkaido”. It added: “The three specialists will make the best of Hokkaido’s natural blessings, supported by higher quality ingredients, more natural ingredients and the soil with which to enjoy them.”

Yesterday’s dishes were prepared by Katsuhiro Nakamura, the first Japanese to win a Michelin star, who was brought out of retirement for the summit. He was hired as the “grand chef” by the Windsor Hotel, where the Presidential Suite costs £7,000 a night.

On Sunday Gordon Brown advised householders at home not to waste food as the world copes with a shortage. He said that ending food waste could save families £8 a week. The Prime Minister’s aides insisted that the aim of his message was not to hector people.

Andrew Mitchell, the Shadow International Development Secretary, said last night: “The G8 have made a bad start to their summit, with excessive cost and lavish consumption. Surely it is not unreasonable for each leader to give a guarantee that they will stand by their solemn pledges of three years ago at Gleneagles to help the world’s poor. All of us are watching, waiting and listening.”

Dominic Nutt, of Save the Children, said: “It is deeply hypocritical [that] they should be lavishing course after course on world leaders when there is a food crisis and millions cannot afford to eat.”

:eek:

[earthsong]

Well... hopefully the current food shortage will mean fewer celebrity chefs on TV peddling their wares. It's about time these prats were cut down to size... especially that fucking Gordon!

[madthumbs]

I work in primarily in food service. Most of the food I eat is free. :p

-yes: it was planned.

Think about your main expenses in life... shelter, transportation, food. If you can walk to a food service job you have two covered. I also used to be the manager of an apt complex (extremely cheep rent). Supposedly food service jobs are stressful, but stress is all in your head. ;)

[indigowarrior]

i noticed that the price of a bag of pasta in morrissons had gone up from about 35p to 78p and no one seemed to notice.
but anyway not to worry because whatever these guys are eating is making them fat, ugly prematurely bald and grey, just buy a breadmaker and stock up on yeast. study how to cook using various ingredients, we need to learn to be more self sufficient.


this article is from the telegraph,






Gordon Brown and his fellow world leaders have sparked outrage after it was disclosed they enjoyed a six-course lunch followed by an eight-course dinner at the G8 summit where the global food crisis tops the agenda.
G8 leaders and their wives make a toast at the beginning of the G8 Social Dinner at the hotel Windsor Toya

G8 leaders make a toast: The lavish dining will embarrass Mr Brown, who has made tackling the global food crisis a key priority

The Prime Minister was served 24 different dishes during his first day at the summit – just hours after urging the world to reduce the "unnecessary demand" for food and calling on British families to cut back on their wasteful use of food.

Mr Brown and his wife Sarah were among 15 guests at the "blessings of the earth and the sea social dinner".

The dinner consisted of 18 dishes in eight courses including caviar, smoked salmon, Kyoto beef and a "G8 fantasy dessert".

The banquet was accompanied by five different wines from around the world including champagne, a French Bourgogne and sake.

African leaders including the heads of Ethiopia, Tanzania and Senegal who had taken part in talks during the day were not invited to the function.

The dinner came just hours after a "working lunch" consisting of six courses including white asparagus and truffle soup, crab and a supreme of chicken.

The lavish dining arrangements – disclosed by the Japanese Government which is hosting the summit in Hokkaido – come amid growing concern over rising food prices triggered by a shortage of many basic necessities.

On the flight to the summit, Mr Brown urged Britons to cut food waste as part of a global drive to help avert the food crisis.

Opposition politicians and charities condemned the extravagant meals.

Dominic Nutt, of Save the Children, said: "It is deeply hypocritical that they should be lavishing course after course on world leaders when there is a food crisis and millions cannot afford a decent meal to eat.

"If the G8 wants to betray the hopes of a generation of children, it is going the right way about it. The food crisis is an emergency and the G8 must treat it as that."

Andrew Mitchell, the shadow International Development Secretary, said: "The G8 have made a bad start to their summit, with excessive cost and lavish consumption.

"Surely it is not unreasonable for each leader to give a guarantee that they will stand by their solemn pledges of three years ago at Gleneagles to help the world's poor. All of us are watching, waiting and listening."

Mr Brown arrived at the G8 summit held on the holiday island of Hokkaido in northern Japan on Monday morning.

He arrived on a plane chartered from Texas, America, which had to fly empty for thousands of miles to pick up the Prime Minister and his entourage.

Unlike other countries, Britain does not have an official plane to transport the Prime Minister.

The lavish dining will embarrass Mr Brown, who has made tackling the global food crisis a key priority.

On the flight to the summit, the Prime Minister urged British people to cut food waste and "reduce unnecessary demand".

He said: "We need a global plan to deal with rising food prices that are affecting millions of families in Britain. That's why I am proposing that we take action to both increase the global supply of food and reduce unnecessary demand.

"If we are to get food prices down, we must also do more to deal with unnecessary demand, such as by all of us doing more to cut our food waste which is costing the average household in Britain around £8 per week."

Talks between world leaders at the summit will focus on dealing with soaring food and oil prices.

There is also hope for a breakthrough on protracted talks to secure a new global trade deal.

However, the leaders are facing criticism amid allegations that pledges for development aid promised for the third world at a previous G8 summit in Scotland have been watered down.

The Prime Minister's spokesman declined to comment on the menus.

Quoting Brown:

"People recognise that the high food prices in Britain - the price of bread, the price of eggs, the price of milk - this is happening all over the world and we have got to have a global solution to what is a global problem," he said.

Global solution to a global problem hey? Sounds like an excuse to set up a one world government. Problem, reaction, solution.

"We have got to get the price of food down through cutting the tariffs and subsidies in Europe and America, so we need a world trade deal.
World trade deal = stepping stone to a world government.

"We have proposed that we double food production in Africa so that they can sell to the rest of the world as well.


An admission of imperial rule in Africa thru corporate and global governmental institutions such as Tesco, Monsanto (http://wideeyecinema.com/?p=105), the world bank, WTO, IMF etc. Trap them in debt and then take their food.

Brown: "Let's make the 'British' dependent on Africa for food to push forward our global government plans. If they are hungry they will accept our plans.".

A solution to the manufactured 'food crisis' (http://www.countercurrents.org/bello170508.htm) (and the forceful criminal elite) is to set up kin's domains of no less then 1 hectare where nature can produce healing, fresh, life giving, nourishing, safe food of a quality that can not be compared with the crap they are selling us. Dependence = control. Indepedence = free dom.

[livingthislife]

yes, and our politicians are so good people that they are doing to set an example.
For example, yesterday in Tokio, in the context of the G8 meeting, after discuss about the problem of the hunger in the world.
After this exhausted meeting, they deserved a big dinner of course.
So they enjoyed about 20 plates, and the menu was: salmon, tuna, sea urchin, veal, shrimps, clams...20 different plates. They were really hungry oh yeah.
Here they are, before the dinner:

I certainly noticed, yet their cheapo pasta (the kind that takes over half an hour to cook) is still about 19p or so. Also their strong bread flour is the same price as the all-purpose kinds, will have to get some tomorrow as well as a tub of yeast, and I`ll bet any loaf I bake I`ll do the usual which is half for me and the other half for the ducks :D

Thats rich of Brown, that fat bastard need to get his ass on a treadmill.

Really beggers belief 8 course meals, its all to put distance between us and the Government. All these things food shortages, credit crunches, petrol prices and what are they doing......................nothing! thats the agenda not to listern and to push through there plan :eek:

In my youth i worked for Waitrose and you would not believe the amount of food that went into the compactor on a daily basis.

We are talking stuff made that day that didnt sell, and stuff just one day out of date.

Literal tonnes of food wastage per day costing thousands of pounds. Its all factored into food prices so supermarkets should be where Brown looks first.

Prevention is better than cure.
