Sorry did I miss the point of the Jamie Oliver waffle show last night? :kick:
Which he has now gone and backtracked his views on Friday afternoon.
Wonder if it was more about the million plus good old Sainsbury’s pays him :small-print:
Now after all the hype about our feathered friends being cooped up in a barn(30+days)and then ending up on the shelf of a supermarket. I was more shocked by the 3 pence a chicken the poor farmer gets for his produce than how the chicken might feel that should have been the issue.
If the greedy supermarkets gave the farmers more of the profits they are scamming out of it, they could give the little blighters a happier 30 days plus life.
As we already know some of the said companies have already admitted conning the public with milk and cheese price fixing, and still didn’t give the farmers any more money as they did it.
And the issue of the caged hens, yes its not pretty but wake up and smell the coffee beans its been going on for years ffs.
So what was Jamie’s answer to all this? Yep you guessed it let us consumers pay an extra pound a chicken. Ok mate lets all live in your dream world of earning a million plus a year. What a muppet.
