Here Harriet Friedmann reflects on the probability the world is in a 500 years transition in the food regimes she discussed in her contribution to the Food Systems Academy and than danger it might come about through wars.

Around a third of people worldwide are malnourished in some way because the #food system is working and #malnutrition is the result, argues Stuart Gillespie in his book Food Fight. Hear him in conversation in my latest blog

Henry @foodpolicycity #FoodThinkers In Q&A says key thing for civil society is to hold the government to account. You can listen to this and other food thinkers webinars here:

Henry @foodpolicycity #FoodThinkers Labour needs to give fruit and vegetables to people living in poverty, be clear on land use framework that optimistic positive vision but recognise trade off & support farmers & not repeat Australia trade deal.

Henry @foodpolicycity #FoodThinkers Labour make best use of land, address food poverty (my shorthand), change our food culture. Mandatory reporting for large food companies on what sell, environment footprint, make accreditation of school food mandatory, & wholemeal for fibre.

Henry @foodpolicycity #FoodThinkers Labour needs to set out their stall for an overall food system approach in fist 100 days - address junk food cycle either by tackling commercial interests of food companies or use apatite supressing drugs(not good idea but could happen).

Henry @foodpolicycity #FoodThinkers tells story of fight between Gove and Eustuce over Liz Truss Agreement with Australia back by Johnson which lost trust of farmers, then the environmental ngos over actions when PM.

Henry @foodpolicycity #FoodThinkers labour will have trade strategy to highest standards re food production but what does that mean, real big difference from past are breakfast clubs & land use framework. But lack of clarity means we're projecting hopes and fears onto manifesto.

Henry @foodpolicycity #FoodThinkers labour says will continue to be bound by environment act, but championing British farming while safeguarding environment not clear what it means, will introduce land use framework which is great to see, ban junk food ad to children.

Henry @foodpolicycity #FoodThinkers says while UK in position to lead food transition not much in labour manifesto, just a handful of things, not sure what removing barrier to business means, free breakfast clubs is fantastic if done by school kitchens.

Henry @foodpolicycity #FoodThinkers says must fix the food system if you want to fix the health system and climate change. Big Data and AI will be on par with impact calculus had on physics, in understanding biological systems.
