Tonight’s show sold out (free but must book). ‘Raving not Drowning’ at Brighton Fest Fringe June 1 bookings available 2030-2130 hrs. See a woman swim Channel (but her feet are in concrete and which way is she going?). Hear strange music and sane commentary brightonfringe.org/events/raving-…

Food politics barely feature in the UK election so far. They should. Food security (national & household) is a prime duty. So is the impact of food on health, economy & enviro. Why no Food Security & Resilience law? This interview I gave is now relevant: m.youtube.com/watch?v=1Gfa-I…

These caterpillars are on a large verbascum in our garden. Specialist advice, please! Is this water betony moth (Cucullia scrophulariae) caterpillar?

Fine positive messages at Copenhagen EU FoodTrails public procurement conference. Cities learning from each other. 2015 Milan Milan Urban Food Policy Pact as key exchange hub. Value of targets for health, taste, CO2e & training. Copenhagen now has 24 Food Schools (pupils spend a week cooking for all).

The right to buy council houses cheaply and not replace the stock is the quintessential, disastrous example of putting the “I” before the “we”. The next in the mini-series to accompany the publication in paperback of “This Time No Mistakes” this week. Hope you are enjoying them!

The scale of today’s internet operating system crash is not surprising to those of us looking at how real resilience planning actually is. Basic rules of resilience are being flouted as dependence on a few large companies is being built in. Resilience requires decentralisation.

is the UK public prepared for shocks to the food system? Are affluent societies that are used to plentiful flows? Following from my report to the National Preparedness Commission, I urge the UK public to be be involved. Resilience is a community matter. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Interesting, if accurate. See this: "Every citizen should stockpile enough food to be self-sufficient for at least 72 hours in case of crisis, the European Commission is to warn, according to a draft of its Preparedness Union Strategy seen by POLITICO." politico.eu/article/europe…

In a new piece for Green Alliance, I ask why primary growers don’t get more income. A focus on addressing food costs & profits could sort English agrifood politics that are currently in a subsidies cleft stick. greenallianceblog.org.uk/2025/04/10/why…
