Don’t let the Government scapegoat others over impending food shortages
It's all well and good blaming Putin for impending food shortages, but the idiocy of our own politicians should not be overlooked.
Converting farmland to woodland and rewilding – at the expense of food security – has been pushed by the Government.
Our own politicians – of every party – have neglected structural issues for decades.
It is the same thinking that led us to blow up serviceable coal power stations just as energy prices began to skyrocket. And that led us to become wholly reliant on the likes of China for vital aspects of our supply chain, and Russia for much of the West's energy needs.
Don't let them scapegoat anyone else. It is our abysmal political class that has led us to where we are today.
