Thought I would give a mention to todays headlines

Gordon Brown wants us all to stop throwing so much food away. :-/

Is it just me, or are we living in a Nanny State, where everyday life is to be controlled by Government? :-?

I'm sure everyone is aware of the food they throw away, (personally I don't throw any away), and hardly need the PM telling us what to do, particularly when he at the G8 summit and eating sushi and drinking fine wine.

Please just concentrate on running the Government, and let us worry about what we do behind our closed doors.

May be Gordon Brown will introduce CCTV in our homes to make sure we follow his advice

[STMO123]

I try not to throw food away, but difficult when everything is pre-packed in fours and sixes.

[Mr Skrunts]

He doesnt shop so what does he know.

Makes me wonder how much of the Banquet gets dumped tonight, no dought the media may have thier finger on the button for a story that is actually garbage for once.

I throw nothing away!! But then I am a fat shi8te and then I am obese.... which Mr Brown also does not want!! Then I feel miserable so I smoke.... which is wrong!...... The I feel bad about myself and I drink........ Not that I should be allowed  

Slight pattern of govermental control emerging.... Stuff brown

[markey mark]

opps them all i will do as i like  

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

I don't waste anything in anyway.

Not only do I not throw food away. I don't leave lights on. Have the heating too high, fill the kettle more that necessary, or leave the telly on standby.

In spite of driving a Vauxhall Omega I think my carbon footprint is small. I think we should be taxed on the overall size of our carbon footprint and not on what car you drive.

Gone off the subject a bit, but who cares anyway

You need help matey, sit yourself down, look in the mirrir and give yourself a good talking to.

Then when you are done, order a curry and have a few beers.

Thats a bloody joke.

"the reason the food prices are going up is because of the amount we all throw away & we all should do more to reduce this"

  'dangle berries'  

The reason the food prices are going up is because this government is still raking in £2m EXTRA per day because of the fuel prices, refusing to lower them & so the transportation costs of everything has rocketed.

Yet another smokescreen

I totally agree. I make a real effort not to waste food, heating, lighting etc. The only real improvement I could make is to buy a smaller car. I do enjoy a few beers and hope drinking isn't outlawed in the near future but you never know!!!

They reckon about 10% is thrown away.

The point is - people are moaning yet still throwing away a large amount of decent food

[stuart30]

The answer is simple....if the government gave each household one pig each,the pig would eat the excess waste and when said pig was fat enough kill the pig and eat it.

Now if that isn't recycling i don't know what is.

Actually saying that Pigs eat human flesh/bone so why not give all the Cat A prisoners and nonce's too the piggeries...not only would the piggery save money on food costs the government would save on the cost of housing inmates and we would have a few less nonce's in the world;D

[psychnurse]

Send any food waste to me....... Job done
