Count Our Money Out : The sub-plot

A sub-plot running through Martin Jeremiah's latest video, Count Our Money Out (from the Love, Peace, Justice album)is the increasing lack of self-sufficiency in food production in the UK. A recent report shows that we have dropped from 70% to 62% food self-sufficiency in the last ten years.

Until the recession this was thought not to be a problem and we could simply buy our way around the growing (or lack of growing!)problem.

However, as the world population grows at a rate of knots and pressure on government borrowing grows too, the complacency in recent years may begin to tell.

We certainly do not want a repeat of the same kind of pressures that led a gung-ho George Bush to stomp around the planet trying to corner a larger share of the world's remaining oil supplies. We don't want to simply replace the word OIL with FOOD.

After all - in theory - food production is something that we can all do something about.
