Thanks for that, I've just watched it. Unsurprisingly there was unanimous agreement across the panel that it needs government intervention, though maybe less consensus on the level and type. I thought Henry Dimbleby made a good point about the need to try things and monitor the impact, before keeping, tweaking or discarding, though I fear he may as well have been asking for the moon. That sadly isn't the way it works, there would need to a consensus amongst politicians before an acceptance that a failure was part of the process rather than a stick to beat the opposition with.simonineaston wrote: ↑18 Jul 2021, 12:48pm Just listened to The UK Food Strategy Panel with Henry Dimbleby at the Oxford Farming Conference 2020
I was also pleased to see that the difference was clearly made between the issues of food poverty and food pricing policy, something the government response, and some comments on here, have tried to combine to avoid dealing with either.
It all seems depressingly irrelevant, those that commissioned the report have rejected it.
EDIT - Typo that I may have got away with...
