If all the fruit that was left to throw away at the end of a shopping day was collected along with all the cakes the bakers throw away, were collected together and they could all be turned into loads of trifles for hospitals, schools and

other places.

Unwanted vegatables could be turned into stews the list is endless

Average? Is that a meat eater in the UK, or globally? And are you taking on the persona of the average Vegan (UK/Global?), or your actual personal intake?


I've looked on the back of all those packets of dried food(?)stuffs in SMBS and there are some scarily distant (air/sea miles) countries of origin.

Ha peter, the air miles are insignificant when you consider how energy heavy the majority of meat is, 80% of all soya beans grown on the earth go to feed animals, 90% of this energy is wasted when they live about etc. Then add the last wasted to grow the food, and the massive amount of water.

No wonder the chair if the EU committee in climate change is encouraging people to do a meat free day!

I think peter was merely trying to suggest that those without sin should cast the first stone.


If you're eating kiwifruit in November you don't fall into that category, especially if you're communicating it in the bulletin board equivalent of a high pitched nasal ventilation.


How many sheets of bog roll do you use when you go to the loo? I have a colleague that's sufficiently scared of his own poo that he uses so much paper you couldn't shoot a bullet through it. He also fills the bowl with paper first to avoid splashback.


He attempts to justify this clearly ridiculous behaviour, much as you do, by being self-righteous.

I think it is a really good idea.

we should be looking at ourselfs on how we waste food.

I do not understand why some of the forum members are so

negative towards Tarot.

It seems to be a very sad trend on this board I have noticed.

well done Tarot and shame on the rest!.

    • I'd quit this thread, let those who just want to slag Labour off have their own thread.  Your views on the economy are worth debating.  I'm just stunned how there wasn't this level of noise with the last government.  I could try to get some dirt on Badenoch but she is pointless  Whilst I am not a fan of the Daily Mirror at least there is some respite from Labour bashing. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/grenfell-hillsborough-families-make-powerful-36175862 https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/nigel-farage-facing-parliamentary-investigation-36188612  
    • That is a bit cake and eat it tho, isn’t it?    At what point do we stop respecting other people’s opinions and beliefs  because history shows us we sometimes simply have no other choice  you are holding some comfort blanket that allows you to believe we are all equal and all valid and we can simply voice different options - without that ever  impacting on the real world  Were the racists we fought in previous generations different? Were their beliefs patronised by the elites of the time? Or do we learn lessons and avoid mistakes of the past?   racists/bigots having “just as much to say” is both true and yet, a thing we have learnt from the past. The lesson was not “ooh let’s hear them out. They sound interesting and valid and as worthy of an audience as people who hold the opposite opinion” 
    • I don't have a beef with you. But I do have a beef with people who feel that a certain portion of the public's opinion isn't valid.  I don't like racism any more than anyone else here. But I do dislike the idea that an individual's thoughts, beliefs and feelings, no matter how much I may disagree with them, are somehow worth less than my own.  And I get the sense that that is what many disenfranchised voters are feeling - that they are being looked down upon as ignorant, racists who have no right to be in the conversation. And that's what brings out people on the margins and drives them towards extremes, like Reform.  Whether you like it or not, the racist, bigot, anti-european nextdoor to you has just as much say in the country as you do. Intellectual superiority is never going to bring them round. 
    • What is your beef with me ? Why are you asking rhetorical questions?  fighting me but excusing reform? have a look in the mirror  you’ve lost your way
